Snowman Coloring Pages
Welcome to my Snowman coloring pages section.
A snowman is just three snowballs stacked from biggest to smallest, and the best snow for building one is the wet, sticky kind that falls when the air is right around freezing. Dry powder won't hold together, so a really cold day can make a snowman surprisingly hard to build. Once the snow cooperates, a carrot nose, two pieces of coal for eyes and a pair of twig arms are all he needs, apart from a hat and scarf.

Easy Snowmen
Snowman is a compound word, built from two words kids already know, snow and man, which makes it a good one to sound out. It's a bit like the snowman himself, really: a couple of easy pieces stacked together.
Building a Snowman
Rolling the first snowball along the ground makes it pick up more snow as it goes, which is how a handful turns into a ball too heavy to lift. That's why the biggest one always goes on the bottom, and the head, which is the lightest, gets the job of going on top.
Frosty the Snowman
Everything in Frosty's story starts with an old silk hat that turns out to be magic. The moment some kids set it on their snowman's head, he blinks, laughs and takes off for the village, until the sun gets a little too warm...

Snowmen and Their Animal Friends
In winter a red fox curls up in the snow and wraps its bushy tail around its nose and paws, which works a lot like a scarf. A baby reindeer can stand up within hours of being born, so by the time the first snow falls it's usually ready to join in.
Detailed Snowmen
The holly tucked into these snowmen's hats is a winter favourite because it keeps its shiny green leaves and red berries all winter long, when most other plants have given up for the year. That makes it a pretty good choice for a hat.
Hats, Scarves and Winter Scenes
Most snowmen get dressed from whatever's in the hall closet, like an old hat and a scarf that lost its matching mitten, with a broom to lean on. Out in the yard they end up with company too, since birds will happily use a snowman's hat as a perch.
Dotted Worksheets and Puzzles
Tracing a dotted outline and connecting dots in order both give little hands practice with the small, careful movements they'll need for writing, and a snowman is a pretty cheerful thing to trace.
A snowman on paper has one big advantage over a real one: he can stand in the sun all afternoon without melting. That makes him the easiest winter friend to keep around, even in July.
