When winter comes with heavy snow, it’s time to get out there and build a snowman! It’s simple to roll up three snowballs, one large, one medium, and one small. Stack them up with the biggest on bottom and the smallest on top for the head. Then let your creative side run wild by decorating the snowman with a face, clothing, arms, and any accessories that you want!

Finding Wet Snow and a Flat Spot

If the snow falls apart, it’s no good for making a snowman. If you are making the snowman close to a building also provides shade for some of the day.

Rolling up a Snowman

• Make sure you are wearing warm, waterproof gloves, or your hands will start to hurt from handling the snow.

• Stop rolling the snowball in the spot where you want the snowman to be. Make sure you start somewhere near that spot, and roll the ball so that you end up there.
• It often works well to roll the ball in a large spiral, but take note that this will leave an obvious pattern in the snow.
• Pat your snowball together every so often to keep excess snow from falling off.

• Roll the snowball in a circle around the bottom section, or in a straight line away from it and back to it. This way when you finish the ball you won’t have to carry it a long way to the bottom section.

• It helps if you flatten the top side of the bottom ball and flatten the bottom side of the middle ball. This helps the middle section sit firmly on the bottom section.

Make a one foot (30.5 cm) snowball for the head. Scoop up one last ball of snow for the head. Pack it with your hands until it is about one foot (30.5 cm) wide. You should be able to make the head without rolling it, but it’s okay to roll it if you want to. When you finish, carefully place it on top of the snowman’s body.

Pack some snow between the sections. Once the three sections are in place, scoop up more snow and pack it between each section. This will give the snowman a uniform look from top to bottom, rather than looking like three snowballs piled on top of each other.

Decorating Your Snowman

• Making the snowman your own is all about creativity. If you have something else that you think would look cool as a nose, use that instead.

• Other options to use for eyes are yellow ping-pong balls, blue rubber bouncy balls, or large green plastic gems.

• Cut a mouth out of felt, stick some fake plastic teeth in the face, or bend a piece of rubber tubing into a smile.

• Before the arms, if you want, put a shirt or coat of some kind around the body of the snowman.
• Also use old broom sticks, golf clubs, or fake skeleton arms!

• Add a tie, sunglasses, or any other accessories to make the snowman stand out from the rest.

How can I add color to my snowman?

Add a few drops of food coloring to a spray bottle full of water, secure the lid, and shake thoroughly. Then, spray the food coloring mixture onto the desired areas of your snowman.

Question
I tried last year, but every time I tried to roll it, some snow fell off. Why?
Community Answer

It may be because the snow wasn’t compact enough or moist enough. You can add freezing water to fluffy snow to help it stay in one piece.

If you right click on the element then select inspect, then in the code hover on your eye div you can see that they are there but below your snowmans head. In this case I would reccomend using a pseudo-element on your head to make the eyes start in the top left position inside that div. Plus that you now can remove the div if you dont wanted it.

Sidenote: remember to make id’s unique:)
