Story: Sally Saves Santa

It was Christmas eve and Santa's elves were very busy. So busy that they forgot to feed the reindeers their magic food. While that kerfuffle was going on Sally was staying up without asking. She wanted to see Santa. She was watching out of the window when she saw Santa. He was struggling. He only just got to the chimney. Just then Rudolph slipped down the roof and banged his nose, it flickered for a few seconds then went out. Because you see he couldn't fly because the elves didn't give them his magic food. Santa can't give his presents to children without a light. That very second Sally had an idea. They could use her red light bulb with a bit of magic of course. So Sally found her red light bulb and Santa connected it to Rudolph's nose with a spot of magic. He also fed the reindeers some spare magic food. Sally said bye to Santa and went off to bed while he put some presents under her Christmas tree.
THE END.

How To Make A Christmas Decoration

Snowman

1 Get a white piece of card and cut a round head out
2 Stick two googly eyes on
3 Draw a nose and a mouth on him or her
4 Give him a hat cut out of a different piece of coloured card
5 Cut out a bigger round body
6 Draw three small circles in a downwards row
for his buttons
7 Make four strips for arms and legs (if you want)
8 Colour them in brown to look like branches
9 Stick all the body pieces together
10 Use a hole puncher to make one hole at the top
11 Hang it up on a pin in the wall for Christmas

You can do Reindeer or Santa Claus or any other Christmas decorations to hang up by changing the shapes and colours.

Have fun making them!

PS: The one I did in the picture has two holes because one of them ripped when I tested it.
