❄️ Snow Much Fun at Break! ❄️

20th Nov 2025

Today, P2A had an unforgettable break time in the snow! When we saw the playground covered in a light layer, we turned it into a classroom of discovery and fun.

We started by dipping brushes into warm water and using them to draw pictures and write our names on the snow. As the water touched the icy surface, we watched the snow melt away—what a perfect way to see science in action! It helped us understand how heat changes solids into liquids.

Next came snow angels! Lying down and sweeping our arms and legs through the snow wasn’t just fun—it showed us how movement creates patterns and shapes. Then, of course, there was a friendly snowball fight. Throwing and catching snowballs helped us practice coordination and teamwork, while learning about fairness and taking turns.

Finally, we spent time simply enjoying the snow; running, jumping, and feeling the crunch under our boots. It reminded us how important it is to appreciate nature and stay active.

This snowy adventure wasn’t just play... it was a mix of creativity, science, and physical skills. We learned about melting, patterns, and cooperation, all while having snow much fun!
