Beaded SnowmanA short story on Snowman
No one knows for sure the origin of the Snowman. There's so many assumptions and stories that have been passed down:
Belgium. In 1511 the peasantry built snowmen representing the aristocracy.
Russia, or one of the Slavic nations. That's why you can find the term "abominable snowman" seen in the coldest, and most isolated regions of Russia for more than 2500 years -- thus the name "snow men".
Then there's the song "frosty the snowman".....
The beaded Snowman is about less than two inch tall.
