These aren't just five snowmen
As anyone can see.
I made them with my hand
Which is a part of me.
Now each year when you trim the tree
You'll look back and recall
Christmas of 2004
When my hand was just this small!

(The ornament is made from a ball shaped ornament. Paint child's hand white. Child carefully grips ornament from bottom up so that fingers imprint snowman-like shapes on the ball. When paint dries, features can be drawn on. Print the poem, date, child's name on a tag and attach on a pretty string.
