Gingerbread Man

Stir a bowl of gingerbread
Smooth and spicy brown
Roll it with a rolling pin
Up and up and down  
With a cookie cutter,
make some little men.
Put them in the oven
till half past ten!

Jingle Bells

December 8, 2009 by ajpassey Leave a Comment

Jingle Bells

Dashing through the snow
In a one-horse open sleigh
O’er the fields we go
Laughing all the way.
Bells on bobtails ring
Making spirits bright
What fun it is to ride and sing
A sleighing song tonight.

Oh, jingle bells, jingle bells
Jingle all the way.
Oh what fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh-hey!
Jingle bells, jingle bells
Jingle all the way.
Oh what fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh!

Here’s Our Little Pine Tree

December 8, 2009 by ajpassey Leave a Comment

Here’s Our Little Pine Tree

(Tune: “I’m a Little Teapot“)

Here's Our Little Pine TreeHere’s our little pine tree,
Tall and straight
Let’s find the things
So we can decorate.
First we want to put
A star on top!
Then we must be careful
The balls don’t drop.

Hang on all the tinsel
Shiny and bright
Put on the canes
And hook them just right.
Finally put some presents
For you and for me.
And we’ll be ready
With our Christmas tree.

Here’s a Little Candle

December 3, 2009 by ajpassey Leave a Comment

Here’s a Little Candle

(Tune: “I’m a Little Teapot“)

Here’s a little candle dressed in white,
Wearing a hat of yellow light.
When the night is dark, then you will see
Just how bright this light can be.

Here’s a little candle straight and tall,
Shining it’s light upon us all.
When the night is dark, then you will see
Just how bright this light can be!

Here’s a little candle burning bright.
Keeping us safe all through the night.
When the nigh is dark, then you will see
Just how bright this light can be!

(Tune: “I’m a Little Teapot“)

I'm a Little Pine TreeI’m a little pine tree – as you can see,
All the other pine trees are bigger than me.

A great big merry Christmas tree!

Reindeer Pokey

(Tune: “The Hokey Pokey”)

You put your antlers in and you shake them all about.
You do the Reindeer Pokey and you turn yourself around.
That’s what it’s all about!

Additional verses:
You put your hooves in…
You put your red nose in…
You put your fluffy tail in…
You put your reindeer body in…
