Snow Penguin

On January 10, 2019 it snowed! At first the flakes were small and as we watched it fall from inside, we wondered if it would cover the ground.  The snow kept falling and falling.  When we went outside to play, the ground was covered with a thin layer of snow.  It took a lot of time and a lot of work to roll the balls for a snowman out of such a thin layer of snow, but we worked together.
We found salal branches, rocks, and pinecones to make the features of our snowman.  When a pinecone was used for a nose our snowman was transformed into a snow penguin.  The snow kept falling.  But then it rained, and rained, and rained.  Soon there wasn’t a trace of snow or a snow penguin in our yard.
