I made one snowman so my kids would know what they were supposed to do, but I though fitting with the "do you want to build a snowman" theme that it was more fun to leave the rest of the pieces out so the kids could make their own snowmen.
Here is an example if you are using Elf Magic:

Hi, my name is Melissa! I live in Spanish Fork, Utah. I'm happily married to Rob, and together we have five wonderful kids. Our family loves to embark on adventures, often in our RV, exploring the great outdoors. I'm an avid reader and a big fan of Hallmark movies – they always have a way of lifting my spirits. Hiking is another passion of mine; there's nothing like the tranquility of nature. I have a sweet tooth for chocolate and a love for Mexican food, both of which make life a little more delicious. In my downtime, I enjoy playing games with my family, creating memories and sharing laughter. Life is an adventure, and I'm here to enjoy every moment of it!

In case you don't have those items you can also use regular size marshmallows, stick pretzels, and a food grade marker. Stick the pretzel stick(not rods) through the 3 marshmallows, then break a stick in half use the two-pieces for arms stick them in the middle marshmallow, then draw a face and some buttons.
