I'm a Happy Snowman - Winter Song for Children

Winter is coming. And who is one of the most popular winter characters all children love? Yes, it’s a snowman! Since the times of the “Frosty the Snowman” cartoon and song the snowman has been very popular with kids in English speaking countries. I decided to write my own snowman song adapted for little children who only begin to study English as their second language. My song is called “I’m a happy Snowman” and you can listen to it in the video below.

Snowman Song Lyrics



I’m a happy Snowman,
Big and fat.
Here are my mittens,
My scarf and my hat.
I’m a happy Snowman,
Here is my nose.
I am all made of snow
From my head to my toes.
I am all made of snow
From my head to my toes.

Winter is a season when we can talk about many things with our children. The first thing is ,of course, playing in the snow. Here are some ideas and worksheets you can use during your English lessons.


Worksheet 1: This task aims at practicing the winter clothes vocabulary. Children should help the Snowman, the main character of my song, match the pictures of winter clothes with the letters they begin with. This is a very simple task which can be done even by preschoolers.

Winter Song about Merry Frosty Days

Winter calls us to spend a great time in a snowy fairy-tale. During frosty winter days children have a great opportunity to play in the snow making a snowman or building a snow fortress. I have written this wonderful winter song for you to feel the atmosphere of joy, fun and happiness in spite of cold wind and low temperature.

The following ESL materials will help you make your own English lesson plan based on the specific vocabulary related to winter activities. I can offer you:

  • Flashcards with winter activities;
  • A worksheet with song lyrics;

In The Snow. Song for Kids


Winter time has come,
Let’s go and have some fun,
In the snow we can play
The whole frosty day.

In the snow we can sleigh,
We can ski, we can play with snowballs,
In the snow we can skate,
We can run, we can ride a snowboard.
Winter time has come!
We are ready for some fun!

Here is a worksheet with song lyrics I created for you:
