Snow person Dec 2011

During the Christmas break, there are so many fun things to do. One of the great things to do is to make a snowperson. Some people think that they understand and know how to make a snowperson, but they do not know how to do this. So grab your siblings, your mother and father, and your friends and go make an amazing snowperson.

The first thing is to make sure that the snow is able to pack together. If the snow is not able to pack then the snowperson will not be able to withstand the wintery season. The snow must be able to stay together without falling apart and must not be too hard.

The next thing is to start building the bottom of the snowperson. This is the foundation of the snowperson and has to be amazing. Take a handful of the white snow and form a ball. Continue adding snow to your ball, until you cannot hold it anymore. Make sure you keep the ball round or the snowperson will look lopsided. Put the snowball on the ground and roll it around the yard, making sure it stays tight. When you have a decent size ball, roll it out of the way and that is the bottom.

Next are the midsection and the head. This is the same thing as the bottom, but they are not as big. When putting these parts on, sprinkle some fresh snow on the top of the bottom layer, so the snow has something to grab onto. Be careful when putting on the layer, this is the hardest part. Make sure that the layer is on perfect or it will be lopsided and will fall over. To help the snowperson stay standing up, add snow in-between the layers. Place the snow in the center, where the layers meet.

The last and funniest part is decorating the snow person. You can dress your snowperson in the like of a friend, a famous person, or just dress it up like a regular snowperson. You need to decide the gender of the snowperson before you continue. To dress it up like yourself or a friend, then you will need stuff that will make the snowperson look like the certain person. If your friend has glasses or a Mohawk, then you need to get these things. If you are dressing the snowperson as a famous person, then find out what this person wears or a character that the person plays, and get the supplies that will make the snowperson look like the famous person. For example, if dressing it put as Edward from Twilight then get brown hair, a pair of sunglasses, and make it sparkle. If dressing it up as Harry Potter, then get a pair of glasses, a wizard hat, a clock, a wand, and clock. Adding a snow owl, will give you extra points.

If dressing the snowperson as a regular snowperson, then you will need a carrot, coal, licorice, and any other available food. For the eyes, you can use coal, black olives, or any black, small food. If you want a color eyes then get the color of eyes you want and use that instead. For the nose, use a carrot. For the mouth, you a stick or licorice. Anything long, thin and able to bend will work.
