Snow - anyone else's children seeing it for the first time?

[Meid]

My dd has just seen snow for the first time. She doesn't really know what to make of it so I hope it settles so we can build a snowman and have fun (like I used to when I was a kid)!

Is anyone else in the same part of the world as me (South East London) and what are your children's reactions?

Cookiemonster - no I don't work for the met office, but as in "real-life" I'm a qualified (though not currently practicing, thanks to DS) ski instructor, I do have a sort of professional interest in snow and the weather patterns which cause it.

And that was in no way a scientific explanation - I could make it sound much more complicated than that!
