Let’s read the story carefully to find out how the snowman is helpful to the birds.
In the story, Sam the Snowman feels sad because he can’t help kids with their sled — his arms don’t move. But then, a bird flies down and lands on his arm. Sam thinks: “This bird needs a place to land that will not move.” And since Sam’s arms don’t move, they are perfect for the bird to rest on!
So, even though Sam couldn’t help the kids, he realized he *can* help birds by being a steady, unmoving perch for them to land on.
That’s how he’s being helpful now!
Final Answer:
The snowman is helpful to the birds because his arms don’t move, so they give the birds a safe, still place to land.
