Once upon a time, in the mountains far away, there was a small village where every year, on December 1st, a strange thing happened. The villagers called this day "The Winter Magic Day", because snow always fell at sunrise on the first day of winter and nature dressed up in white.
The children always looked forward to this day. They had been drawing snowmen and singing winter songs for weeks.
On the edge of the village there lived an old man who everyone called the Snowman because his hair was as white as snow. Every year on December 1, the old man visited the village and brought each child a small gift that carried the magic of winter.
And so it was this year. The old Snowman was excited to visit the village. For weeks he worked on the gifts he had made with his own hands. For each child, he made a unique gift that carried the magic of winter. These gifts were special: small wooden toys that glowed warmly in the cold, tiny glittering snowflake-shaped pendants, and tiny but charming knitted items that the children wore with warm hearts on cold winter days.
When evening came, the villagers gathered together in the main square. In the middle of the square, as is custom, a bonfire was lit. People gathered around the fire singing, dancing and drinking hot chocolate as the Snowman continued to tell them stories.
His stories were about the wonders of winter nights, the mysterious world of the stars, and the fabulous stories of the moon. These tales were not only entertaining, but also instructive, as the Snowman infused each story with a little wisdom and a lesson about love, hope and the importance of sticking together.
This special day, 1 December, has become not only one of the most magical days of the year for the villagers, but also an occasion to celebrate the strength of community, traditions and love. It couldn't have been a better start to a wonderful winter season and the Christmas season.
