A bit of fun for inside the Homemade crackers or an after dinner party game

Eleven elves licked eleven little licorice lollipops.

Santa's sack sags slightly.

Ten tiny tin trains toot ten times.

Santa stuffs Stephie's striped stocking.

Comet cuddles cute Christmas kittens carefully.

Seven Santas sang silly songs.

Santa's sleigh slides on slick snow

Bobby brings bright bells.

Running reindeer romp 'round red wreaths.

Tiny Timmy trims the tall tree with tinsel.

Chilly chipper children cheerfully chant.
