Let me tell you all about the wonderful things that come with this winter weather.   As winter begins, the air becomes colder, and you might notice a nip in the breeze. It's like nature is putting on its coziest blanket. The days get shorter, and the nights become longer, giving us more time to enjoy the beauty of the season.   One of the most exciting things about winter is snow!

Everything turns into a winter wonderland, and you can build snowmen, have snowball fights, and create snow angels. Each snowflake is unique, just like each one of you!     Now, don't forget to bundle up in warm coats, hats, gloves, and scarves before you go outside to play.
