Winter Weather

  

Winter Weather

Most people like warm weather,

Or so I have been told,

But me, I like the winter,

When the weather is brisk and cold.

Each year I wait for winter,

With its wind and snow and sleet.

I like to wear my warm wool clothes

And boots upon my feet.

In winter I go sledding

And skating in the park.

The wind may blow and it may snow,

But I won’t come home till dark!

January

 We are so happy that there is snow! It makes talking about seasonal change so much more relevant!



JANUARY
January
Now is here --
A fine new start
For a whole new year.
The snow comes down
In the dark of night.
When we awake
The world is white.
In January
When there's snow,
We get our sleds
And away we go.

Here is the silent e song that we have been listening to! We LOVE it!
