It’s that time of year again! The time when everyone gathers around to see whether the man in red drops by to deliver presents to all the good little boys and girls in the world. As we prepare for the big day, don’t forget to get the kids involved by making some Magic Reindeer Food to leave outside for Rudolph and his friends.
Making Magic Reindeer Food
Creating Magic Reindeer Food is easy and fun for the whole family. You’ll need some rolled oats, glitter (because even reindeer appreciate a little sparkle), and some small plastic bags to put everything in. You can also add other ingredients like raisins, chopped carrot or red and green sugar crystals for extra color and flavor.
Simply mix the ingredients together in a bowl, and spoon a small amount into each plastic bag. Seal them up and label them with your child’s name and the year, so Santa and his team know exactly who to thank for the treat.
Leaving Magic Reindeer Food Out for Christmas
The night before Christmas, leave the bags of Magic Reindeer Food outside near the edge of the yard. As Santa and his team make their way across the sky, Rudolph will spot the glitter and oats and know that he’s found the right house.
Kids love the idea of helping Santa and his reindeer, and this fun activity is sure to get them even more excited for the big day. It’s a great way to spend some quality time together as a family, and create lasting memories that they’ll cherish for years to come.
Other Ways to Get Involved this Christmas
There are plenty of other ways to get involved and share the festive spirit with others. You might like to volunteer at a local shelter or soup kitchen, or participate in a charity drive to help those less fortunate. Simple acts of kindness, like buying a hot drink for someone who’s homeless, or helping to decorate a retirement home, can go a long way towards making someone’s Christmas a little brighter.
Whatever you choose to do this holiday season, make sure to take a step back and enjoy the magic of the moment. Good food, great company and plenty of laughter make it the perfect time to relax, let your hair down and celebrate the joys of life with those nearest and dearest to you.
From our family to yours, we wish you a very Merry Christmas and a wonderful New Year!
