snowmen

Carrot-nosed creations

Snowmen is the plural of snowman—figures made by stacking balls of packed snow, typically three of descending size, decorated with items like coal eyes, a carrot nose, and stick arms.

Building snowmen is a classic winter activity for children: The kids made snowmen in the yard after the first big storm.
