Playing in the snow is way more fun than going swimming because you would want to enjoy the snow as much as possible since it doesn't come often whether as swimming is open all year round. You can do so many fun things with snow like build forts to defend yourself from enemy fire (snowballs), build an army of snowmen to keep you company while destroying your enemy's base, and sledding down the most dangerously thrilling hills that make you swish and swoosh in every direction. The moment you step into the house your cheeks, toes, and fingers instantly tingle as your tastebuds are eager to savour the rich and creamy hot chocolate that mum has prepared or to come into the school with a bright smile and a rosey nose. There are plenty more ways to enjoy the snow then there are with just wading around in the water. Case closed, playing in the snow is way more fun and enjoyable than swimming. Bye!

Swimming is more fun because playing in water is great and jumping off the diving board is fun. Playing on the floating equipment is fun as well.

I think that playing in the snow is more fun THAN swimming cause you can do all of the egzacte things that people do when swimming (and more).

I think both are really fun! I absolutely love swimming, but also really like playing in the snow. I can't really choose one. I had a really fun time at the pool today. I was a bit nervous for the swim test, but even though I know that I'm a really good swimmer I was nervous because of the people looking at me.

This was a very hard choice but I concluded that playing in the snow is slightly more fun than swimming even though I loved doing both. The snow today was so thick, it was past my ankles! When I fell in it I didn't need to go swimming, I was soaking anyway! Even if I liked playing in the snow more than swimming I still had a great day!

I love the snow because you rarely get snow, and you can do way more in the snow than you can do in the pool.

After a long session of pondering, I have concluded that I would prefer to play in the snow rather than go swimming. You could swim any time because the pools are always open, but snow doesn't come very often, for us especially. When I play in the snow I tend to use my imagination. Large snowballs can turn into fiery asteroids or bullets. A heap of snow can turn into a shield or fort, used to hide or defend yourself. When playing in the snow, you have the ability to change it into whatever you desire, whereas while swimming you can only, well, swim. Sure, it's very fun, but there's not many options. After a while you tend to get bored of the same old water. It's not like you can change it up or anything. Snow is not like that. If you get bored of playing like you're in a battlefield, you could just smash your fort into bits, get ready to use your wild imagination, and create something new. In snow, you are free to do whatever you want with it. The choice is yours when you're in snow. Why not take a lump of fluffy whites and create something amazing? When I play in the snow and return home, I feel like I've accomplished a breathtaking task, when really, all I've been doing is playing in the snow. I would rather explore a battlefield, defeat the enemy, conquer a thrilling task, or create my own snowy masterpieces than simply wade in the water. Okay, bye!

I think playing in the snow is more fun because we hardly get any snow and you should enjoy it while it lasts. You can make snow forts, snowmen and have snow ball fights. Another thing you can do is go snowboarding, skiing, and sleding.

I can't decide which is more fun because I didn't get to experience the swimming or playing in the snow today because I was sick.

This is a tough choice but I would choose snow because you can play a lot of games in the snow and build lot of different things and you can build anything in a swimming pool. In the snow you can also have a tough of fun just like swimming but I stand my ground of playing in snow.

I prefer swimming snow is cold and everyone gets wet. I also think swimming with different pool temperatures can have cold or warm.

I prefer snow better because you can go to the swimming pool in any season but you can only go in the snow when it's very cold and most likely in the winter. I also think the snow is way better because there's many things you can do in it like building a snow fort, building a snowman, going sledding, going skiing, and lot of other things. Just like today after school I went sledding at the field with Cydnie, William, Landon and more and it was really fun! The only down fall about the snow is that it is very cold but if you wear the proper clothes then you will be fine.

Since I didn't go swimming today I'd have to choose playing in the snow as I had made many snowmans and threw many snow balls when it was snowing on Saturday. When it's snowing you have many options, an example is sledding but in swimming all you really do is swimming. Bye!

I think that playing in the snow at school is more fun because it rarely snows and you can go swimming all year round. BYE

I would choose snow because snow rarely comes every year and sometimes it doesn't come each year, and swimming you can go literally any time of the year. Snow comes and goes pretty fast so I would like to enjoy the snow when we have it!

Swimming is more fun because when you are in the snow it is cold the hole time but when you are swimming it can be hot or cold and it is very easy to relax when you are at the pool or at least it is for me just feeling the water around me.

I would say that swimming is more fun because you do not become freezing cold and it is nice to relax in warm water while it is very cold outside. Plus I like to swim lengths around the rows just for fun.

Snow because you only get it for a little bit of time and its mostly only in December, but swimming you can go anytime of the year.

I would rather have a snow day because there are lot's of stuff you can do for example you can sled and have snowball fights with your friends and have hot chocolate and stay in your pj's and stay warm and sleep in if the school is out because the snow is to strong and finally it doesn't come as often as a swimming field trip, the reason I didn't pick swimming is because you don't have a lot of options all you can do is swim, jump of a diving board, have water fights, and go down slides and that is the reason I would rather have a snow day than a swimming field trip.
