Created from Elsa's magical powers, Olaf is by far the friendliest snowman in Arendelle. He is innocent, outgoing and loves all things summer. Olaf may be a bit naive, but his sincerity and good-natured temperament make him a true friend to Anna and Elsa.
Moments within making his entrance in Disney's smash hit Frozen, the magically animated snowman (and noted scene-stealer) Olaf passionately proclaims his love for summer, stating that he's always loved the season — even though he has no idea what happens then.
In the At Home With Olaf shorts "Sunrise" and "Candy," Olaf is seen chewing and eating popcorn and candy respectively (the snowgies in Frozen Fever are similarly shown eating birthday cake).

Proven by the absolutely catchy 'In Summer' song he sings during Frozen—we all know that Olaf is definitely a Summer kind of snowman. So, enjoy summer—go out in the sun, jump over puddles and sing to the sky (even if it means you'll melt in the hot weather).

Their friendship is easily explained by their common traits, being their whimsically childish natures. In spin-off material of the film, Olaf and Sven are featured as a duo, appearing, more often than not, side by side as best friends, sometimes finding themselves in comical mishaps.
Other early design concepts included lots of different items for, of all things, Olaf's eyebrows. All sorts of things were considered, such as grass and twigs.
