As the January snow blanketed many parts of Donegal this week, local children embraced the winter wonderland with sheer delight.
From building snowmen and forts to snowball fights and making snow angels, there was no shortage of fun to be had while many schools were closed.
Thanks to everyone who shared snaps of their snowy fun from across the county:
