Christmas is drawing closer, and with each passing day the elves are busy preparing for the big day. There are only 2 months until Christmas, and there is still so much work to do! While the elves are working as fast as they can, Raymond is getting excited. Oh, yes, even more excited than usual. 🙂
This is the beginning of the happiest time of the year at the North Pole. There’s a buzz in the workshop from the sound of hammers tinkering, swooshing paintbrushes, scissors shearing, ribbons being snipped and curled, and the elves whistling as they work.
In the kitchen, Mrs. Claus is busy baking and trying out new recipes. Baking brings her so much joy; she seems to effortlessly whirl around the kitchen as she measures each ingredient precisely and decorates each cookie. The sweet smell of sugar and cinnamon drifts out of the kitchen throughout the village, stirring the appetites of Santa and the elves.
Elsewhere, the crisp aroma of evergreens freshens the air wherever wreaths and garlands are hung. Tonight, the elves will gather together to sip hot cocoa and try out Mrs. Claus’ new cookies, whilst deciding how to decorate the various trees around the village this season.
Are you as excited as we are? How will you prepare for Christmas this year?
Christmas is just a few short months away… 4 months to be exact! Everyone at the North Pole is bustling about, including—you guessed it—Raymond!
It has been a while since Raymond visited the Elf Pal Academy, so he trotted over to take a look around.
First, he brought an apple for a teacher.
Then he skipped down a hallway and into a classroom where he found some school supplies. He stopped for a while to color some coloring pages. (Ahhh, smell that? I love the smell of crayons in the morning!)
Then he spotted some books on a bookcase and grabbed a few. Raymond loves to look at pictures…
And flip pages…
After a while, Raymond’s tummy began to rumble, and he realized it was almost time for lunch. So he swiftly put the books away and scurried home, all the while wondering what he might eat. Apples? Oranges? Hot chocolate? Popcorn? Whatever he was going to eat, he knew he would not stuff himself like the time when he learned a lesson.
Happy July 25th! Christmas is getting closer—it’s only 5 months away. We have been celebrating Christmas all month long. We had a Christmas in July party and made lots of fun decorations. Check out some of our party ideas such as s’more snowmen, leafy paper garland, pretty glittered ornaments, and palm tree wall decorations, just to name a few.
While we were cleaning up after the party, Raymond began to play with some of the decorations…
Gooooood morning! Today is June 25th, and Christmas is 6 months away. We can’t believe how fast the year is flying by, but we are eagerly anticipating Christmas. So eager, in fact, that we thought we’d throw a party to celebrate! July is only a few days away. What better way to have fun than with a Christmas in July party? Check back as the day goes on for craft ideas for your Christmas in July party.
Hiya folks! The spring months are upon us, and Christmas is just 7 months away. The elves are busy working, and the reindeer are preparing for the big day. Raymond is too little for reindeer training, so what is a young reindeer to do?
Well, he is counting down the days until Christmas, but that’s not all… Bored during a recent snowstorm, he put on some different outfits and had a photo shoot!
