The Snowman and Hot Chocolate

Light wood

Once, at a winter camp, children went for a walk into a snowy wood.&nbsp;

It was a real miracle, but not the only one!

He showed the children a beautiful place with a high snowy hill, a log fire and presents.&nbsp;

They put on their warmest sweaters, earmuffs and gloves and ran to the wood.

In the evening they returned to the camp, had hot tea and went to beds.&nbsp;

There was a lot of snow, so they played snowballs and rode sledges down a snowy hill.

When they got bored with the games, they decided to make a snowman.

Next morning was very cold, but the children wanted to visit their snowman.

In the present boxes the children found skis and they enjoyed skiing all day long.&nbsp;

At night there started a snowstorm that made a lot of snowdrifts.

They wanted to thank their new friend, so in the evening they brought him to the camp.&nbsp;

While the children were examining these footprints, a gleaming snowflake fell on the Snowman's nose and he said "Hello".&nbsp;

Their snowman grew big and there were strange footprints, like ones of a Polar bear,&nbsp;around it.

They all sat around the fireplace and treated the Snowman with hot chocolate,&nbsp;listening to his&nbsp;winter tales.
