SNOW DAY

If you've never made a snow angel, it's time to give it a try. This is winter
fun at its best.
Instructions
STEP 1: Bundle all participants up in warm
clothing, including hats and gloves.
STEP 2: Find an area of snow that is
clean and has not been walked through.
STEP 3: Line up next to each other or
spread out around the area.
STEP 4: Stand far enough apart so that when you
spread your arms you can't touch the person next to you.
STEP 5: Fall gently
into the snow onto your back.
STEP 6: Keep your entire body flat in the
snow.
STEP 7: Brush your arms between your head and waist in a sweeping
motion.
STEP 8: Move your legs apart as far as they will go and then
together.
STEP 9: Repeat these motions (it's like doing a jumping jack while
lying on your back) until you have made indentations in the snow.
STEP 10:
Have someone stand at your feet and pull on your arms to help you up.
STEP
11: Get up without stepping on your snow angel or making a handprint in the
middle of it.
Tips & Warnings
This works best in snow that is
powdery and not hard or wet.
Put some colored water in a spray bottle and
spray your angels different colors to make them stand out.
Help children
make their own snow angels. They will need help making the right motions and
getting up.
Take photos to preserve your art.

Now see if I did that I'd probably wind up falling inadvertantly on a stump or something and bruising the small of my tailbone and then . . .
