They become best friends forever.
Scout and Jem's snowman is first made to look like Mr. Avery.
In "To Kill a Mockingbird," Jem and Scout find a small figure carved out of soap that resembles Boo Radley in their front yard. This figure symbolizes Jem's growing understanding and empathy towards Boo as he begins to see him as a kind and sympathetic person rather than a menacing figure.
Jem's goal for the snowman is to build a realistic representation of Mr. Avery, a neighbor, while Atticus's goal is to provide his children with a valuable lesson in empathy and understanding. Jem focuses on the physical appearance and details of the snowman, while Atticus prioritizes the underlying message and teaching moment for Scout and Jem.
Scout and Jem initially intended for the snowman to look like Mr. Avery, their neighbor.
They model their snowman as Mr. Avery. This can be found on page 89.
They tried to make a snowman out of dirt and what snow they could find.

To Kill a Mockingbird is filled with character symbolism. The most prominent are Scout's overalls, Scout and Jem's snowman and Boo Radley's soap carvings.
Mr. Avery was an unpleasant man who lived down the street from Jem and Scout. The snowman that resembles him is evidence of how Jem and Scout interact with others as children. They create their snowman out of dislike of Mr. Avery. This scene is a direct comparison to Boo Radley's soap carvings which he makes out of friendship.
Jem makes his snowman by first making the body with mud. After constructing a mud man, he packs snow all over it. He did it this way because there was not enough snow to make a full sized snowman made entirely of snow.
The snowman was destroyed by the fire set by Miss Maudie's house when it caught on fire. The fire was started by a group of men, including Atticus, who tried to help put out the fire before it spread. Scout and Jem were devastated by the loss of their snowman, but they learned the importance of community and helping others in times of need.
