| The first snowman that my kids have ever made!! | | In England where I live we have not had a proper snowfall for a long time, in fact the last proper snowfall was around 18 years ago so it said on the news. That is a long time and considering that my oldest child is now 17 and the youngest is three it means that they have never had the joy of playing in the snow or making a snowman!Well this week we have had quite a lot of snow, not as much as some places in England granted, perhaps only about 2 inches, but enough for my kids to get out and have some fun and build their first proper snowman. So I thought I would share this moment with all my friends here and put a picture on of them with their first snowman!!Do you get snow in your Country? What is the worst snowfall you have ever seen in your lifetime?If you are in England, how much snow did you get?lso of extreme global warming events provide a great background." Senior engineer Wang Qiling introduced the National Climate Center, according to National Climate Center monitoring, "La Nina" event there is likely to continue until the summer of 2008, before and achieve moderate or stronger. | |
| | Why we call a "snowman" not a "snowwoman"? | | have you ever thought of this question yourself? well, I just did a while ago while teaching one of my students.. our topic relates on how to make a snowperson... well, saying it in a snowperson doesn't make any confusion.. but when we talked about snowman, this question popped up.. hahhaha.. isn't it a funny one? well, let's see what you think.. give your best shot..^^ happy mylotting...:) | |
| | Are you good at making a snowman? | | I havent seen a heavy snow in our area for many years, not to mention on the first day of Chinese lunar new year.I am so happy coz a white world looks so beautiful and pure. My cousins and I made a snowman together.The snow is not heavy enough.Due to our bad skills,Im afraid you can hardly tell what it is.We dont have many chances to practice making a snowman.So what about you?Can you make a snowman in winter in your area? If the answer is yes, do you like making snowmen?And are you good at it?lol.Have a good day! | |

| giant snowman!! | | Have you heard that the largest snowman ever built was built this year... and it so happens that this snowman is actually a woman. She stands 122 feet tall. Now that is a lot of snow. Check out these photos http://www.usatoday.com/weather/news/2008-02-29-maine-snowwoman_N.htm?csp=34 | |
| | The Snowman - what's your favourite intro? | | The origanal with the older man walking in the snow remembering when he was a child and the year he built The Snowman (rumoured to be the auther Raymond Briggs himself), David Bowie all cheasy in an attic, with a jumper (recorded later and used instead for the US market.) or Mel Smith's Father Christmas (from that animation) sitting down to watch the Snowman? (done by Ch4 for the anniversery but sadly shown ever since)and how wrong it is that you can't buy either origanal version in the same country that people have grown up with it? Going by angry reviews on amazon, IMDB and personal experience, it's only avalible in the Uk with the Father Christmas intro + a clip of David Bowie's, but the only US R1 dvd(s?) has our introduction instead.[em]angry[/em] | |
| | The Snowman From Where? | | Thanks to my dad I found this site and had a blast playing around on it. So tempting to pay to get the full features but this picture is one we did for free. You can do some videos and pictures. Some may have seen my dads dancing disco elves video. Anyways had to share this picture as it is my whole family even my hubby.So anyone else have fun sites like this they go to or any other fun sites to play on? | |

| | | What Is Your Snowman Name? | | We have had snow here for nearly a week now. It is so cold. We have not made any snowmen yet. I am sure that our grandkids will want to do that when they come home for Christmas. They are only 2 & 4 years old but they always ask if we have snow. Where they live, there is never snow. They remember all the snow we had last Christmas. There is a site online that you simply put in your name and it will give you your snowman name.
Mine is: Bramble Frosty-Buns
What is your snowman name?

| Will you be able to make a snowman with your kids this winter? | | When I was a kid, I made snowman in winter and in my holiday. However, today we do not get many snow and the kids today rather spend time in front of TV or games, Computer. They do not really play like I did as I was a Kid. I remember I was outside for hours until my mum yeld at me to get inside. Today´s kids do not spend that much time outside. Do you as parent force your kids outside to play? Will you be able to make a snowman with your kids this winter? | |
