Winter Time

Save to My Favourites

Once the fall is over and the snowflakes start to fall, I get very excited. I put on my mittens, my scarf, my hat, coat and winter boots, and I run out into the fluffy snow. It can get very icy and cold in the winter. The first thing that I do is to build a snowman. I sometimes build a snow fort, too. My friends and I have a good snowball fight. We laugh a lot and our cheeks and noses get very red. When we get too cold, we go into the house and have a cup of hot chocolate. My father fills the backyard with water that freezes and turns into an ice rink. When the ice is hard enough, my friends and I get our skates and we go out on the ice to play hockey. My sister and her friends don’t really like to play hockey – they would rather just skate around on the ice. My father has to shovel the snow off the paths and the driveway in the winter. I help him. Shovelling snow is hard work. When my dad and I finish shovelling the driveway, we go into the house and warm our hands and feet in front of the fireplace.
