Do You Wanna Build A Snowman?

I hate snow. When snowflakes start falling from the sky, teardrops involuntarily fall from my eyes. That is how much I dread it. I hate digging the car out of the snow, Driving in it is a challenge and twice someone rear ended me cause they were going to fast for the conditions. It is so ugly when the plows pile it up on the sides of streets and it gets slushy and dirty. Yep, I would be ecstatic if it never snowed again. When I was a child it was a different story altogether. I remember being excited at the first snowfall and anxious to get out a go sledding or build a snowman. Growing up in Philly (US) when there was a no school day due to the snow, many of the parents were also home from work. The whole neighborhood was outdoors throwing snowballs and sledding. It was like your neighbors were your family. So I understand why you are remiss that the children are not experiencing snow. I am not certain that kind of neighborhood camaraderie exists anymore, but they would enjoy the kind of play you can only do in the snow. So here is a picture for you all.

Well, although I live in a desert now at least when I was 7 dad was stationed in Germany so I got to play in snow, it was fun. And no, I don't miss it at all, I like it warm/hot.

We don't get that much in the UK , I used to love it when younger but not anymore. I would love to be able to send the snow to your boys. just remember people slip over and hurt themselves. cars get stuck in the middle of no where. The buses stop running. the trains stop running . Ambulances get stuck with sick people on board. Shall I stop now. It may sound romantic but the reality is far different.

You are more than welcome to take any snow we get here! Ugh-not looking forward to it @cindiowens

As a child and young woman I had the pleasure of snow, but now that I live in the south I seldom see it.

I live in an area that gets a lot of snow, but we've only had a dusting so far. I like a day of fluffy, falling snow. No ice and not four feet of snow!

I think we get just enough snow each year to build a snowman.

I would rather it did not snow. My brother works outdoors, and I hate to know he is that cold. I would not want him to have to lose work either, because he needs the money so bad.

We don't celebrate Christmas like you do but I would like to build a snowman one day.

I'm like your kids, I haven't experienced those things either.

How about planning a trip to a snow area for a Christmas gift? Or have the kids looking at my #marshmallow snow table!

I would love to but we dont have snow at our place.

We once went to a place called 'Snow World' in Hyderabad in India. It was absolutely hilarious to see hundreds of people who never experienced snow or ice playing in a bit freezer warehouse.

I hope that we will have enough snow to make snowmen. I work with young children so it would be great to make some with them.

snowball fights can be fun as I discovered two years ago and we were all adults

When it snow I am not thinking about going out. All I can think about is the fire and hot chocolate staying warm

You could get a snow machine and make lots of snow in the front yard for them.

I experience snow every year, Switzerland gets enough snow to make people sick of snow.

you are very lucky that you have snow and your child playing in snow.its my dream that i want to go at that place where snow fall so i can enjoy there,but unfortunately there is no snow here at my place so i really missing it.

I hope your children get to make a snowman sometime. I still like playing in the snow but it's skiing and skating now
