What Do Snowmen Symbolize in Christmas?

The snowman is one of the most well-known Christmas icons. We see various varieties of this beloved creature throughout the season, and even in hotter areas, the snowman is appreciated. Following the first snowfalls of the winter season, those who grew up in Canada have all relished building a snowman with our loved ones and adding extra details to our masterpiece.

The snowman has been bringing a grin to our faces for millennia!

When we think of a snowman, we usually envision three snowballs placed on top of each other, with a motley assortment of other objects like a stiff carrot, coal, branches and a top hat. But, today, we witness a plethora of different versions of this endearing character.

Unfortunately, the origins of the snowman are unknown. Although it is unknown who created the first snowman, it has been suggested that likenesses of this iconic emblem of Christmas and the winter season date back to the Middle Ages.

Snowmen and their likenesses have existed for ages and have appealed to people of all cultures. By the Victorian era, the snowmen had become a well-known Christmas figure. Thousands of depictions, ranging from paintings to greeting cards to ads, may be discovered during this period. There is a lot of variety amongst these depictions, but it’s undeniable that it’s our icy pal.

The twentieth century cemented the snowman’s iconic position with “Frosty the Snowman,” which has become one of the most popular Christmas carols. Steve Edward Nelson and Walter “Jack” Rollins collaborated on the script. It was sung by Gene Autry in 1950 and has since become a Christmas classic. Every time we hear the music on the radio, and over sixty years after the single’s release, we can all still remember the lyrics quickly, and many of us even sing it in the car. The massive list of other musicians who have recorded the song since then, adding their twists and making it new for each generation, attests to its enormous appeal.
