Story: The Winter
In winter, it gets cold. Snow falls from the sky, covering the ground in a soft, white blanket.
We wear warm coats, hats, scarves, and gloves to stay warm.
Children play in the snow and have fun making snowmen with big, round bodies and carrot noses.
We can also make snow angels by lying in the snow and moving our arms and legs.
Winter is a time for snowball fights, where we throw snowballs and laugh together.
The trees look different in winter. They have no leaves, and sometimes they are covered in frost, which sparkles in the sunlight.
When it is very cold, the lakes and ponds freeze, and we can see ice on the surface.
At home, we drink hot chocolate to warm up after playing outside. It tastes sweet and delicious!
In winter, nights are longer, and we can see stars twinkling in the dark sky.
Winter is cold, but it is full of fun and magic. It’s a special season that makes us smile!
