Make a wish and close your eyes tight,

Then sprinkle on your lawn at night.

As Santa's reindeer fly & roam

This food will guide them to your home.

For your gift to the reindeer and Rudolph too

Your wish may be real, your dreams may come true.

 

OR

 

 

It has once been said,

That right before you go to bed.

You should sprinkle magic reindeer food,

To quickly bring Santa and his brood.

For many years the legend has been told,

To boys and girls, both young and old,

Sprinkle the food throughout your yard,

Then finding your house won’t be so hard!

The reindeer can smell the food for 100 miles,

Just do not leave it in big piles!

After you do this you must go to sleep very fast,

So Santa and his reindeer will not pass!

Come December 24th, As Santa Flies Here From The North

Here's what you do, it isnt hard

Just sprinkle this stuff in your yard...

That sparkles draw old Santa near

And oats attract his 8 reindeer

Then just you wait ~ They're on their way

 

PS Happy Holiday!

 

Expecting a visit from Santa?

Here is a recipe I have found

It is a special reindeer food

to sprinkle on the ground

 

The oats are for energy

The sparkles are for flight

So sprinkle magic reindeer food

On the ground on Christmas night

 

All of Santa's reindeer

will love this healthy snack

and next year Santa and his reindeer

surely will be back!

Never heard any of those before!

 

Is this another north / south divide issue??

[Guest]

What goes in the bag? Is it just oats and glitter?

[Guest]

We put sliver glitter and crushed up weetabix in a small enverlope with a drawing of a reindeer and the poem on the front the kids love it

I've never heard them before either Susan so it can't be a northern thing. I must use one of them this year though.

I love the idea,

 

I was thinking of doing it in some fancy bags and selling it in our entrance hall, for say 50 p or soemthing, all funds to nursery.

we use oats mixed with glitter i'm from up north and we have used those poems in the past!!

[Guest]

I'm in the Midlands and I've never heard it either........ I like the idea of a fundraising opportunity tho...... will definitely give that a go. Thanks everyone!

[Sue R]

Well, I heard of it for the first time here on the Forum last year ( I'm in Nottingham ) used it and it was extremely well received!!

It was my Ta who started making it for the Grotto at the Xmas fair. Just glitter, oats and a few sequins. she puts the poem on the front and ties it with some red and green thin ribbon. Very popular.

I have been doing this with my class for the last couple of years. I originally copied the idea after seeing some on sale at another local school's christmas fair!!!

We usually mix the oats and glitter together in one big bowl and each child makes their wish and stirs it up. Then once everyone has done this we share it out into little polly bags and tie with xmas ribbon.

Kids love it and I do too!!!!

[Guest]

We do it too but we're not in the North!

 

We cut out reindeer shapes and stick on...

 

MAGIC REINDEER FOOD

On Christmas Eve, sprinkle on your garden or doorstep. The glitter shining in the moonlight and the smell of oats will guide Santa’s reindeer to your house.

 

then attach a little polybag of oats and glitter.

I may have to use a poem this year tho - they are nice!

[Guest]

[hali]
