IN WINTER TIME by BURGES JOHNSON

First Line: THE WINTER TIME IS EXTRA NICE
Last Line: WE PUT HIM FIRST, IN CASE WE BUMP.
Subject(s): CHILDREN; PLAY; WINTER; CHILDHOOD;
The winter time is extra nice—
We run and slide upon the ice,
Or build a snow-man, fat and tall;
But coasting is the best of all.
The baby is so soft and plump
We put him first, in case we bump.
