1. Kim and Carrots: Grandma knows that the first snowfalls in a toddler’s life may make the world seem a much too changed and silent place to explore independently. So, together Kim and Grandma discover the many possibilities for outdoor play in the winter. Here are a few more ideas:
■ Play follow-the-leader in one another’s footprints.
■ Mold the snow as you would wet sand, using coffee cans and plastic boxes.
■ Make music! Sing, beat on pans or drums, and blow whistles. The sound is more tolerable outdoors, and making it is great fun.
■ And dance to your music as well. Before you go outside—or after you come in—read the selection “Let’s Dance.” You’ll be bringing a poem to life.
