Articulated Foldable Snowman

A snowman that refuses to stand still. The familiar stacked-ball build is here in the snowman shorthand everybody recognises, but the whole figure is articulated, so it moves in the hand and folds down when it is not on display. Festive desk toys have a short season and a surprisingly long shelf life. This one manages both: a novelty decoration through December, a fidget object beside the keyboard for the other eleven months. Children tend to claim them within about a minute of arrival, and adults tend to keep one anyway and pretend it belongs to the children. Good for craft-fair stalls, stocking fillers, advent gifts and classroom prizes, or simply for anyone who wants a seasonal ornament that can survive being picked up, wiggled and folded flat rather than boxed carefully away.
