Thankfully I had this storytime put together for January, because I had to sub in at the last minute. We didn't have a huge turn out, so I may use parts of this storytime again in January.

My Little Snowman
I have a little snowman who has no clothes to wear,
So I'll give him a black hat, because he has no hair.
I have a little snowman who has not clothes to wear,
So, I'll give him a bright red scarf, since I have one to share.
I have a little snowman who has no clothes to wear
So I'll give him blue boots, a nice, warm, wooly pair
Now my little snowman has lots of clothes to wear
And I hope that my snowman knows how much I care!
