All the white stuff got me thinking about kids and snow, parents and snow, and teachers and snow.  Watching children make snow angels is delightful, and children are so creative in the things they build.  They’re daredevils sliding down hills, and woe to anyone caught in the middle of one of their snowball fights.

The downside?  It’s those coats, snowpants, mittens, hats and scarves.  And, of course, always make sure they make a trip to the bathroom before you zip them in and wrap them up!
