The invention of the snow

We don’t really know how the snow was created and we suppose that God invented the snow as all the other natural elements. But I have another theory about the invention of this weather phenomenon:

One day a very intelligent and bright child called Jan, had the idea of doing an experiment to discover how did the rain react at the cold temperature of Russia, the place of where Jan was from. It wasn’t very difficult; he only had to wait to a raining day to take some of the raindrops that fell down from the sky. The expected day arrived, it was Jan’s opportunity to take out the raindrops that he needed for the experiment, so when he finished the school he took away a jar and he went out to the street. It was raining a lot and Jan filled the jar while he went home. When he arrived to his house he looked at the jar, he placed it outside the window, to control it and to see what happened.

After some hours the water had turned ice. When Jan saw that, he started thinking what he could do to warm up the ice; finally he decided to warm it up putting up some pieces of cotton. After that he fell asleep and he went to bed.

The next day there was no ice in that jar but there was snow. Jan didn’t know about the existence of this phenomenon, so he was excited and very happy because he had discovered an amazing thing. Then he realized that he had to tell someone about the existence of that incredible thing. But first he had to search a name for that ice that had turned into snow, with cotton. Finally he decided to call it polar ice, because he supposed that in the North Pole would be many snow and as well because of the polar bears, which were one of Jan’s favorite animals before that experience. With the pass of time the name of snow has changed until now that we called it snow, and very often we use to say that something is very pale or white as the snow.
