Story
The picture takes place a year after the events told in the movie " Cold Heart ". Elsa , Kristoff, Sven and Olaf are planning to give Anna a birthday surprise, but while Anna is asked to walk along the thread that passes through Erendell, Elsa gets cold and unknowingly creates a group of small snowmen with every sneeze. Snowmen begin to disassemble the birthday decorations, and Kristoff tries to stop them. Elsa accompanies Anna on a string, and Kristoff, Sven and Olaf try to catch the snowmen and watch the decorations in a timely manner until Anna and Elsa return. After Elsa nearly fell off the clock tower, Anna convinces her to rest. Anna enjoys the party, and Elsa lets out a giant snowball with her sneeze through an alpine horn that accidentally flies to Hans abroad, after which Elsa lies in bed under Anna’s tutelage. Olaf, Kristoff and Sven accompany the little snowmen to the ice palace of Elsa, where they remain to live with their snow giant Marshmallow.

Criticism
Claudia Puig of USA Today gave a short three out of four stars and described a new song (“I give you one day”) as pleasant.

Robbie Colin from The Daily Telegraph newspaper praised the song “I give you one day” and called the short film a “spongy confection made of pure sugar” , and he also suggested that songwriters Kristen Anderson-Lopez and Robert Lopez could have thought of “something This is special for the expected picture - the full-length sequel to “Cold Heart” [23] .
Whitney Saybold from the site CraveOnline noted that the painting "demonstrates the celebration of the very kind for conspicuous consumerism that Disney always blurs the landscape" [24] .
