Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Sarah. She loved to play outside, especially on cold winter days. She would always make sure to dress warmly, so she wouldn't get too cold.

One day, Sarah woke up and looked outside. It was a beautiful winter day, with snow falling gently from the sky. She was so excited to go outside and play in the snow! But first, she needed to get dressed.

Sarah put on her warmest jeans and her favorite T-shirt. She then put on her boots, so her feet would stay warm and dry in the snow. Next, she put on her gloves, so her hands wouldn't get cold. She grabbed her scarf and wrapped it around her neck, so her throat would stay warm. And finally, she put on her warmest hat and her favorite skirt, so she would look cute while having fun in the snow.

With all of her winter gear on, Sarah opened the door and ran outside. The snow was so deep and fluffy, and she could see her breath in the cold air. She twirled around and around, feeling the cold snowflakes tickling her nose.

She made snowballs and threw them at her friends and they played until they were tired and cold.

Sarah's mom called them inside for hot cocoa, and Sarah was so happy and warm. She couldn't wait to go outside and play in the snow again tomorrow!

The end.
