"When Santa got stuck up the chimney When Santa got stuck up the chimney, He began to to shout, You girls and boys, Won't get any toys, If you don't pull me out. There's soot on my back, And my beard is all black, My nose is tickling too.! When Santa got stuck up the chimney, Achoo, Achoo, Achoo. Was on the eve before Christmas Day, When Santa Claus arrived on his sleigh, Into the chimney he climbed with his sack, But he was so fat - he couldn't get back. Oh, what a terrible plight, gangway, He stayed up there all night. When Santa got stuck up the chimney, He began to yell. Oh hurry, please, It's all such a squeeze, The reindeer's stuck as well! His head's up there in the cold night air, Now Rudolph's nose is BLUE!! When Santa got stuck up the chimney, Achoo, Achoo, Achoo, Achoo, Achoo, Achoo, ACHOO! When Santa comes down the chimney, I should like to peek, But he'll never come, no never, Until I'm fast asleep! Their hearts were very happy 'Cause they all found a home!!! There is a man we know so well, To the tune of BINGO There is a man we know so well, And SANTA is his name Ho S A N T A S A N T A S A N T A And SANTA is his name HO! Each time we leave off a letter we substitute the word HO in its place. The children make a Santa and I give them the letters S A N T A to put under his picture. I also give them five HO's so that they can cover up the letters as we sing the song. The children learn how to spell SANTA very quickly and have alt of fun with the song learning how to sing HO HO HO HO HO in a big Santa voice! Clop, clop, clop went the donkey's feet. Clop, clop, clop went the donkey's feet. Clop, clop, clop down the stoney street. Nod, nod, nod went Mary's head She was so tired, she needed a bed. Knock, knock, knock went Joseph at the door. Do you have room for anyone more? No, no, no the innkeeper said, I don't even have one more bed. Wait, wait, wait the innkeeper said, You can use my stable for a bed. Shh, Shh, Shh what is that I hear? The cry of Baby Jesus, oh so dear. I made little "reindeer heads" from brown paper, wiggle eyes, and red chenille balls, and attached them to each finger of little white gloves, for the children to wear while chanting this verse. They love it! Twinkle Christmas Star (tune:Twinkle Twinkle Little Star) Twinkle Twinkle Christmas Star How I wonder what you are.

A RIDE FROM SANTA If I could find old Santa, I'd ask him for a ride, And in the wooly blankets, I'd snuggle by his side. And when we go up high to the chimneys tall, I would stay up on the roof for fear that I would fall. And when the reindeer start to go, I'd call Out loudly, Whoa! Reindeer! Whoa!
