As the children sleep in their beds, dreams of Santa Claus dance in their heads, knowing Christmas will soon be here. On Christmas night, as the winter chill dances with the snow and rain, Santa Claus prepares to deliver goodies to all the good little boys and girls.
On Dasher, Prancer, Dancer and Vixen, Comet, Cupid, Donner and Blitzen. As the team soars off with Santa at the reins, flying through the night sky, the sleigh comes to a house on the edge of town. Down the chimney Santa goes with his red suit, a twinkle in the eye, a rosy nose, and his sack full of goodies. He takes a bite of a chocolate chip cookie left inside the house and drinks every drop of the glass of milk alongside it.
Santa makes his way to the Christmas tree and sets out presents for the children. There’s even a bone for the puppy! With his job done, up the chimney Santa goes. He does not have a moment to waste because the next visit cannot wait. As Santa gathers himself to ride on his sleigh, he calls out into the night, “Merry Christmas, and to all, have a good night.”
Inspired by “The Night Before Christmas” by Clement Clarke Moore.
