If I described snow to someone who didn't know what snow was I would described it as a a cold wet white blanket the covers everything.  The is also several thing you can do with this cold wet blanket. Number 1 you can build an army of of man built by rolling three balls of snow and stacking them on top of each other. The snowmen don't do much and just stand there and look cool.  Also if you have enough snow you can build a entire little house out of snow and even heat it. And you can also throw this snow material at people.
