My Favorite Winter Activity

Winter is finally here!  We asked you to tell us about your favorite winter activity (reading, playing in the snow, building a snowman, ice skating, baking cookies, etc.)  The most popular response was playing in the snow and building a snowman, but there were many other fun things kids like to do in the winter time.  To all the kids that submitted a short story and/or drawing, a big high five on doing such a great job!  We also had a raffle drawing and congratulations to Tameem, in grade Pre-K, for being the lucky winner of the raffle!  Here are your fabulous winter stories and awesome artwork:

My favorite winter activity is building a snowman! – Sharon, Age 2 years, 7 mos.

Brrr! My favorite winter activity is to make figures made out of snow. This short story is about me and my friend Dean from the Lego Club. I knew him when I was in kindergarten, and there is a moral–can you find it in the story?
Fun With Dean
“Oh my god, Dean!” I have a great idea of what we can do today! We can make a figure completely made out of snow as big as a giant. Our main plan was to get in the Guinness World Records Book. After several trials, we realized it was not going to happen. Finally, we ended up building a small figure made out of snow and we were very happy with our creation. Moral: You should always feel happy with what you have and not what you desire. – Prakash, Grade 4
