More visuals: Cut snowflakes out of white paper and decorate the room with them. Song: Sing the following song together, spinning like falling snowflakes:

I am a snowflake, they are about to land,
They'll fall under your collar, will chill you behind your ear.
Just look at me, how beautifully they spin
And I cover the earth with a soft white fluff.
