A snowman is an anthropomorphic snow sculpture often built in regions with sufficient snowfall and is a very common winter tradition. In many places, typical snowmen consist of three large snowballs of different sizes with some additional accoutrements for facial and other features. Due to the sculptability of snow, there is also a wide variety of other styles. Common accessories include branches for arms and a smiling face made of stones, with a carrot used for a nose. Clothing, such as a hat or scarf, may be included.
