Hat, Jacket, Gloves and Boots Hat, jacket, gloves and boots, gloves and boots Hat, jacket, gloves and boots, gloves and boots These are the clothes I wear when it's cold Hat, jacket, gloves and boots, gloves and boots Snow is falling in Antarctica Snow if falling in Antarctica I'll dress warm so I don't freeze Snow is falling in Antarctica	Penguin Huddle Come together, snuggle up Stay close to me, that's the key You're my brother and my sister We'll be warm and safe together Like a penguin family Huddle, huddle Like a penguin family Huddle, huddle Flap your feathers Sing out your call We'll stick together We won't fall Like a penguin family
Pack Your Yak Yak, yak, yak, yak I like to hike with my yak, yak Yak, yak, yak, yak Hiking up the mountain with my yak What will you pack on your yak What will you pack on your yak Water, tent, sweater and a snack That's what I'll pack on my yak	Hiking Up and Down There was a mountaineer Who had 10 girls and boys He marched them up to the top of the peak And started to jump for joy 'Cause when you're up, you're up And when you're down, you're down And when you're only halfway up You're neither up nor down
Climb the Mountain Climb, climb, climb the mountain To the very top Put on your skis Slide through the trees Until you finally stop	Ice Castle I built a castle big and tall Like none other Different from them all Frozen water crystal clear Inside its walls Nothing left to fear The wide blows, the wind blows The sky snows, the sky snows But my ice castle is strong and true And I'm safe inside my frozen igloo
In the Snow What lives within your snow? Oh, how I'd really like to know What a mystery White is all I see Was that an Arctic fox nose poking out Taking a peek, looking around? Was that a snowy owl swooping by? Flapping her wings, she silently flies Was that a polar bear sound sleep? With all white fur, he's hard to see	Snowflakes Falling Pretty snowflakes falling down Falling down Falling down Pretty snowflakes falling down On this wintry morning
Freezing & Melting (Instrumental)	Winter Waltz (Instrumental)
This is the Way We Sled This is the way we sled downhill Sled downhill Sled downhill This is the way we sled downhill In the winter morning This is the way we ski the trails Ski the trails Ski the trails This is the way we ski the trails In the afternoon This is the way we walk in snowshoes Walk in snowshoes Walk in snowshoes This is the way we walk in snowshoes In the winter evening	Baby Polar Bear My baby polar bear Do you know how much I care? Your icy home is turning blue Do not worry; I love you I will try to keep it cold and white Then your future will be bright My baby polar bear Do you know how much I care?
