Santa's Magic Bootprints written by Dan K. Beard and illustrated by Jenice Lan is a unique, clever and fun story that will start a new holiday tradition in your house! As Santa gets older his memory begins to wane a little, but have no fear-the magic bootprints are here! The novel idea will not only reassure your child of Santa's return each holiday season, but it will also delight your entire family with a new tradition. The pictures in this well written tale are friendly and jovial, and they remind me of the colorful illustrations I enjoyed in holiday books from my childhood. Santa is depicted as jolly, round and full of love for all the children of the world. The story is written in a rhyming and fluid pattern, and utilizes a sing-songy tone. Children ages seven and older may be able to read this book independently as well, but it still makes for a perfect family read aloud. It is important to note that a portion of the revenue from sales of this awesome story will be donated to Feed the Children. This book is a must have for your holiday collection of beloved stories for this and every holiday season!




Enjoy these fun and whimsical songs with your preschooler this holiday season!


Oh,Christmas Tree

To the Tune of Oh,Christmas Tree

Oh, Christmas Tree, oh, Christmas Tree,
Your lights are bright and sparkly.
Oh, Christmas Tree, oh, Christmas Tree,
Your star does shine so brightly.
Red and green, and purple too,
Pink and gold, and shades of blue.
Oh, Christmas Tree, oh, Christmas Tree,
Your lights are bright and sparkly.


This is a fun and interactive holiday song and game you can play with your preschooler. I call it "Santa Says". You are Santa!

Santa says red, so put your hands on your head.
Santa says brown, so act silly like a clown.
Santa says green, now wipe your face clean.
Santa says pink, pretend to skate on a rink.
Santa says purple, now get in a circle.
Santa says white, pretend to fly a kite.
Santa says yellow, wiggle like Jello.
Santa says says grey, shout hip hip hooray!
Santa says blue, Merry Christmas to you!


Have You Ever Seen a Reindeer?

To the tune of "Have You Ever Seen A Lassie?"

Have you ever a reindeer, a reindeer, a reindeer?
Have you ever seen a reindeer fly in in the sky?
Dasher and Dancer, Rudolph and Prancer.
Have you ever seen a reindeer fly in in the sky?

Ten Little Elves

To the tune of "Ten Little Indians"

One little, two little, three little elves,
Four little, five little, six little elves.
Seven little, eight little, nine little elves.
All making Christmas toys.

S-A-N-T-A

To the tune of "B-I-N-G-O"

There was a man, so jolly and plump,
and Santa was his name.
S-A-N-T-A, S-A-N-T-A, S-A-N-T-A,
and Santa was his name!
*Repeat this until reaching until all letters are used. Try jingling bells in lieu of clapping for this festive remake!

I'm a Little Present

To the tune of "I'm a Little Teapot"

I'm a little present,
Just for you.
I am wrapped with paper, tape and glue.
When you open me I will surprise you.
Merry Christmas and I love you!
