How this list was compiled: Checked on 2026-10-02. What a snowman is made of was read in three places. (1) Wikipedia, English edition, Snowman, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snowman : in North America three snowballs for the head, the torso and the lower body (in the United Kingdom two, a body and a head); sticks or branches for arms; stones or coal for the eyes and a smiling face; a carrot for the nose; a scarf and a hat, often a top hat. (2) Snowmen: Snow Creatures, Crafts, and Other Winter Projects (1999), read by full-text search on the Internet Archive, https://archive.org/details/snowmensnowcreat0000cole : lumps of coal, a carrot, a scarf around the neck and a row of buttons down the front. (3) Snowman Crafts (2004), read the same way, https://archive.org/details/snowmancrafts0000unse : coal for the faces and the buttons, a snowman with a broom, a scarf and mittens. Stick arms with mittens on the ends are also in a children's story read the same way, https://archive.org/details/flyingbedroom0000dyer . Every word was then checked for spelling and meaning in two dictionaries: (4) Cambridge Dictionary, https://dictionary.cambridge.org/us/dictionary/english/ followed by the word (snowman, snowball, hat, eye, carrot, nose, mouth, scarf, button, stick, arm, mitten, broom, coal) and (5) Longman Dictionary of Contemporary English, https://www.ldoceonline.com/dictionary/ followed by the same words. Hints, detail lines and the order are our own. Licence: own work

What is a snowman's nose made of?

Traditionally a carrot, pushed into the head so that the pointed end sticks out. The eyes are traditionally lumps of coal or small stones.
