We can call this song and use the lyric “winter shiver”, “winter pokey”, or “snowkey pokey”. All three have advantages. “Winter pokey” is closest to the original, “The Hokey Pokey“, and is in otherwise standard English. “Snowkey Pokey” is cute and sounds more like the original. “Winter shiver” has more meaning for EFL and introduces another English word and gesture “shiver”, which means “involuntary body shaking to warm the body due to cold”.
