When winter has left

Few people rejoice at the advancing winter. From everywhere, sighs and walls are heard about the cold, slush, early twilight, dank wind ... But what if winter hears these lamentations, will be offended and leave?
Imagine: New Year is approaching. Everyone is preparing for the holiday, buying gifts and treats for the festive table ... And only winter thinks that no one is happy with her! And she leaves ... to Antarctica! Anyway, it is cold and snowy there all year round.
What is now for the New Year? How to ride a sled and skiing? Is it really not possible to blind a single snowman? It turns out that if the winter leaves, everyone will worry and wait for her return ...
