Frosty the snowman lives in the north pole. He likes to make kids laugh and play. He is very happy. Frosty the snowman has a red scarf, black buttons, and black hat.

Frosty the Snowman and Professor Hinkle will see flowers and a bunny rabbit while going down the hill. They had Santa Claus, a girl from north pole Karren, Rudolph join them sledding on Christmas day. They all had a lot of fun!
