The winter is upon us, at least for those whose Animal Crossing islands are in the Northern Hemisphere. Islands are once again wintry wonderlands, snow is falling, and villagers are in their adorably cozy finery. This means it’s also the time of year for repeatedly attempting to build a perfect Snowboy — Animal Crossing: New Horizons’ version of a snowman.

I’ve got good and bad news: These bad boys are delightfully festive, but also incredibly finicky to build. A “perfect” Snowboy will give players one seasonal DIY recipe, as well as a Large Snowflake every day until it melts. But it’s incredibly easy to biff the proportions on the fresh-packed rolling snow — the snowball will grow as you roll it, making it hard to finesse — yielding a Snowboy that’s adorable but ultimately doesn’t give you any items.

Luckily, New Horizons players have discovered an easier shortcut for making that perfect Snowboy.

Sure, these perfect Snowboys give you cool stuff. But in our opinion, all Snowboys are perfect. They’re all cute, no matter what — and islands look great with a few of them in whatever shapes and sizes they come out in. So, go forth and cover your islands in Snowboys.
