When we think of Christmas, snowman automatically appears in our mind, as one of the prime decorations for the holiday season. To create one, we often think of three snowballs, layered on top of one another, combined with coal for the eyes and mouth, a carrot for a nose, tree branches for arms, a scarf and of course, a black top hat. But we also see many interesting variations from this lovable figure. It is the iconic symbol of Christmas and winter season. Follow these steps to build a perfect snowman.

• Find a flat section of lawn, as if you build a snowman on a slope, it may topple over. Also, make sure you create the snowman in the area where it has enough snow for you to use.
• Check for snow that is moist and packable. Scoop some up between both of your hands, press it together, and if it forms into a ball, you will easily be able to make a snowman.
• Pack the snowball and add more snow to the ball, until it is about one foot in diameter, or until it gets too heavy. Make sure you are wearing warm, waterproof gloves, or your hands will start to hurt from handling the snow.

  Roll the ball along the ground to make the bottom section. Keep rolling until the ball is about three feet wide. Stop it in the spot, where you want the snowman to be. Pat your snowball together, often to keep excess of snow from falling off.

• Now form the middle section. Scoop up some snow in both hands and pack it into a tight ball. Add more snow until the ball is too heavy to carry, but make it a little smaller, compared to the first one. Roll the ball until it reaches about two feet. Lift the middle section onto the bottom section. Make sure that it sits right in the centre of the bottom ball.
• Make another snowball for the head. Once you finish, carefully place it on top of the snowman’s body.
• Now decorate the snowballs. Stick a carrot in the middle of the head for a nose, use buttons, pebbles or charcoal for eyes, and mouth. Add two ticks for the snowman’s arms. Top off the snowboy with a hat and scarf.
