Despite all the recent snow in Boulder, there were no smiling snow people in our yard, or homemade hills for sledding. Instead, mysterious "balloon babies" scattered around. (Don't they oddly look like sky and clouds?) These water balloons spent time under shirts before resting in the snow to see how they fared. One burst and made a beautiful belly bowl shape. Others refused to freeze. Others never quite made it outside...
Another favorite game was called "rearrange snow." John shoveled snow into his baby wagon and carted it from one side of the yard to the other.
Eventually, John recognized the futility of his efforts. He redirected to a snow-fire truck game, which involved burying, tunneling, and loud sounds.
Then everyone played abandon your toys in the snow.
