The Winter Wonderland
Winter is a magical time when the world gets covered in a blanket of pure white snow. The chilly wind whispers through the trees as they stand tall, their barks covered in frost. This is the time kids await eagerly. As soon as the first snowflakes fall, they rush outside to build snowmen or have a thrilling snowball fight. Their laughter fills the air, adding warmth to the cold winter days. But not everyone is out and about. Some animals, like bears, are nestled deep in their dens, hibernating till spring arrives while birds fly south to escape the cold. Some animals grow thicker coats to brave the cold, like the Arctic fox.
