A Special Hello to Our Friends

Before we start, I want to say a big hello to Mrs. Her Soul’s class at North Saginaw Charter Academy in Michigan. Thank you for sending us today’s book. You are all amazing, and we are excited to read it together!

Today’s Book: “Snowmen at Night”

Today, we’re reading a fun book called “Snowmen at Night” by Carolyn Buhner, with beautiful pictures by Mark Buhner. Let’s dive into the story!

The Magic of Snowmen

Have you ever built a snowman? Imagine making a snowman on a cold, wintry day. He’s big, round, and tall. But what happens to snowmen when we’re not looking? Let’s find out!

What Do Snowmen Do at Night?

In this story, we’ll discover the secret life of snowmen. Do they stay still, or do they have fun adventures when the moon comes out? Maybe they slide on ice, have snowball fights, or even drink hot cocoa!

Let’s Use Our Imagination!

As we read, think about what your snowman might do at night. Use your imagination and picture all the fun things snowmen could do when we’re asleep. It’s like a magical snowman party!

Enjoy the Story!

Are you ready to find out what snowmen do at night? Let’s read “Snowmen at Night” and enjoy the adventure together. Remember, stories can take us anywhere, so let’s have fun and see where this one leads us!

  1. Have you ever built a snowman before? What kind of adventures do you think your snowman might have if it came to life at night?
  2. Imagine you are a snowman for a night. What would you like to do? Would you have a snowball fight, go ice skating, or something else? Why?
  3. Why do you think stories about snowmen coming to life are fun to read? Can you think of other things that might come to life when we’re not looking?
  1. Snowman Adventure Drawing: After reading the story, grab some paper and crayons. Draw a picture of what you think your snowman does at night. Does he go ice skating, have a snowball fight, or maybe he dances under the stars? Share your drawing with your friends or family and tell them about your snowman’s nighttime adventure.

  2. Snowman Role Play: Gather some friends or family members and pretend to be snowmen at night. Think about the activities you imagined in the story. You can act out sliding on ice, having a snowball fight, or sipping hot cocoa. Use your imagination to create a fun snowman adventure right in your living room or backyard!

  3. Observation and Discussion: Next time it snows, build a snowman and observe him over a few days. Does he change when you’re not looking? Talk with your family about what you think your snowman might be doing at night. Share your ideas and listen to theirs. This will help you think about how stories can inspire us to imagine and explore the world around us.

Sure! Here’s a sanitized version of the transcript:
