It's Christmas time again! Santa Claus and his elves are working because they want to be sure that they have all of the Christmas Wish Lists from all the boys and girls.

Christmas Carols: Special songs we sing during the Christmas season

Christmas Trees: Trees were decorated with apples, cakes and sweets for many centuries. Today, Christmas trees are decorated with tinsel, lights and small ornaments.

Father Christmas: He is the English version of Santa Claus. He is an old jolly man with white hair, a beard and a moustache. The red coat is “new”. Images of Father Christmas prior about 1880 most pictures showed him with a green coat.

Santa has nine reindeer who haul the sleigh. Their names are: Dasher, Dancer, Prancer,

and

Frosty the Snowman

Was a jolly happy soul With a corncob pipe and a button nose and two eyes made out of coal

Frosty the Snowman is a fairytale they say He was made of snow but the children know How he came to life one day

Once there was a gingerbread man, Baking in a gingerbread pan. Raisin eyes and a cherry nose, Trimmed right down to his fingers and toes. A gingerbread man in a gingerbread pan! Here's the old woman who made him so sweet, A treat for her and her husband to eat, She made him with flour and sugar and eggs, She gave him a face and two arms and two legs. A gingerbread man in a gingerbread pan!
