Child’s name was very excited. When she/he saw the brightly lit trees and pretty decorations, she/he knew it was almost Christmas, the day children around the world celebrate the birth of Jesus.



Child’s name anxiously looked forward to Christmas. She/he knew that Christmas was the time when Santa Claus visited children around the world with a sleigh full of gifts. This Christmas, child’s name had a very special Christmas wish.








Child’s name decided to write a letter to tell Santa of her/his special Christmas wish. After finding some Christmas stationery, friends’ and family members’ names helped Child’s name compose her letter. “Dear Santa, I would love to visit you at the North Pole. This is my special Christmas wish.”







Mrs. Claus was baking cookies for Santa and the elves when the letter from child’s name arrived. They were all tickled with her/his unique request. Santa decided to fly his reindeer sleigh to pick up Child’s name in home town and state.








Santa wanted to go right away. His elves raced to the stables to get the reindeer and Christmas sleigh ready. As they worked, they talked about all the Christmas decorations at the North Pole and how some of them, especially the manger scene, made them think of the very first Christmas long ago.







It appeared that the whole town came out to greet jolly old Santa, almost everyone in home town and state. They all thought Child’s name was very fortunate, indeed, to be going to the North Pole with Santa Claus.









Child’s name jumped into the sleigh. As Santa handed child’s name the reins, he told child’s name how happy he was to be taking her/him to the North Pole, and how anxious the elves were to meet her/him.









Child’s name was so excited that she/he almost forgot to wave goodbye to friends’ and family members’ names. All the people of home town and state, were happy for child’s name because her/his Christmas wish was coming true.









The large, green sleigh was warm and cozy. Child’s name notice that the eight reindeer were wearing sleigh bells that made joyous, jingling sounds. In what seemed five blinks and a wink, child’s name arrived at Santa’s house.









“Welcome to the North Pole, Child’s name !” exclaimed Santa. “There are so many good children around the world this year that we are really rushing to get all the toys ready.”










“Every year we give gifts to the children around the world,” said Mrs. Claus. “Santa often says he would have liked to have been one of the wise men who gave gifts to the baby Jesus. We just hope our gifts will remind the boys and girls of how God gave the world the most beautiful gift of all when Jesus was born in Bethlehem.”







Santa and Mrs. Claus took child’s name on a tour of the workshop. Child’s name was amazed to see a room full of busy elves making Christmas gifts. There were dolls, balls, airplanes, kites, teddy bears, and lots of other toys too.









Child’s name saw on of the elves reading a book. The book had the name “Child’s name” in it. “Hey, that’s for me!” chuckled child’s name .










Santa asked child’s name if she/he would help the elves wrap some of the presents. “Of course I will,” said child’s name . “Won’t friends’ and family members’ names be surprised to hear that I wrapped gifts with Santa Claus.”









Santa stood on his tiptoes to load the sleigh with toys. He asked child’s name to help him. “Pick out some especially nice presents for friends’ and family members’ names,” he told child’s name . Then, Santa asked child’s name to help him deliver all the gifts tonight - Christmas Eve!








Off they went to faraway places to pass out presents to boys and girls from around the world. Child’s name felt such brotherly love and realized the special pleasure that comes only from giving to others. “That,” thought Child’s name, “must be how God felt when He gave the very first Christmas gift, His son Jesus.”
