Old Man Winter is not going to let up so neither will we! The children and staff ventured out for another fun day in the snow but were pleasantly surprised when the majority of it was more like frozen ice. Snow balls that were made last week now are hard as ice and stuck in the spot they rest on. Many of the children found the extra slickness made the sled ride down the playground hill a little more fun too.
