Let It Snow!

While sitting at snack the Pine friends were discussing what we could replace our pine cones, hanging from our branch in the classroom, with when it is winter. 

"We could make like the snow falling! We could put cotton balls up to make snowflakes!"

Just then, the kids gasped. 

"Look behind you!"

I turned around to see big snowflakes falling from the grey sky. 

"Can we go see it?"

We headed outside. 

"It's so cold!"

"They are so big!"

"It's turning all white."

"I don't want it to melt!"

After running around for a few minutes the kids wanted to head back inside. Once back in the room they ran over and started stacking blocks up against the window and shelves. 

"We are trying to see the snow!"

"There's so much coming down!"

Seeing as it was getting a bit crowded we decided we should find a window in which we could watch the snow coming down. 

"There's so much coming down!"

"The whole grass is white!"

"Wow, it's pretty."

"It's so cold and white!"

B had a different idea on what he could do with the snow. While the others ran around and tried catching on their tongues, B decided he wanted to see what it tasted like. 

B picked some up and put it into his mouth. 

"Brr!" he exclaimed as he took another mouthful. 

He giggled excitedly as the snow fell around him. Such a fun day!
