Christmas is such an exciting time for children, may these verses help bring Christmas alive for them.Getting Ready For Christmas Poet: Doris Wilder Oh, Christmas is a time of year I love with all my heart; And best of all, I think I like The getting-ready part! We practice carols weeks ahead And mail some things away I get to help sign Christmas cards And make the house look gay We plan a program for our church And make some gifts at school, The postman brings us packages - We hide them; that's our rule. We trim the Christmas tree, we cook, We wrap for all we're worth; But best of all, we read once more Of baby Jesus'birth. A Ride With Santa Poet: Ovie Pedige Tanner I wish that dear old Santa Would take me for a ride; I'd like to drive his reindeer And sit by Santa's side. I'd like to help old Santa Find all the girls and boys, So each one might be happy With Christmas books and toys. Jingle, jingle, jingle, Christmas toys we'd bring; Jingle, jingle, jingle, How the bells would ring! 
You better watch out, you better not cry Better not pout, I'm telling you why Santa Claus is coming to town Haven Gillespie Christmas Quotes Christmas Recipe Poet: Gay Dowling A pound of fun And a pound of joy Make a nice present For a girl or boy. A cup of goodness And a cup of love Really are gifts From heaven above. A pinch of holly And a pinch of pine - Now, we know It's Christmas time. The Christmas Poem Poet: Nancy Hartwell God chose Mary to hear the Baby, For she had no sin. When she and Joseph got to Bethlehem, There was no room at the inn. Christ was born in a stable And lay on some hay. He had a ring above His head A bright array. Some shepherds - on that long-ago date - Were watching their flocks by night When out of the heavens came an angel And a glorious light. The angel told them where The newborn King was laid. So the shepherds hurried to the spot And there their homage paid. Three Wise Men searched the sky one night And came across a brand-new star. "A King!" they said, So they started from afar. Myrrh, frankincense, and gold Were the gifts beside Him laid. They bowed their heads, And they prayed. 
Happy Birthday Jesus Jesus Night before Christmas Poet: Adelaide Brookins When candles shine all down the street, Children come, singing carols sweet. Homes are hung with sprays of holly; All are merry - all are jolly. A Christmas tree with tinsel gay Holds gifts for all on Christmas day. Children hang stockings in a row; Santa will fill them to the toe. When evening prayers have all been said, Good little children go to bed. Then comes the sound of reindeer's feet With Santa in the driver's seat. 
His eyes- how they twinkled! His dimples, how merry! His cheeks were like roses, his nose like a cherry! Clement Clarke Moore Short Christmas Poems Christmas Poet: Iris Lane Franklin Christmas is for mistletoe, Evergreens, and holly; Christmas is for Santa Claus, Red and fat and jolly. Christmas is for hearts to love And voices to sing. For on that day in Bethlehem Was born the Christ, the King. Christmas Tree Alight Ila Lewis Funderburgh We've the loveliest Christmas tree this year; It's on the lawn, but very near. After dark when I went to see The shining beauty of our tree, There under branches deep and green Was the sweetest sight I've ever seen! By a bulb that glowed like a red, red rose, A chickadee warmed his chilly toes, Then fluffed his feathers and hid his head And went to sleep in his nice, warm bed. When I awake late in the night And saw the spruce tree still alight, I snuggled down, happy because I knew The chickadee had a warm place too. 
Whenever you give someone a present or sing a holiday song, you're helping Santa Claus. To me, that's what Christmas is all about. Louis Sachar Helping Others Wait For Santa Poet: Catherine Pulsifer You are counting down the days Making wishes for many toys Many times you heard the phrase Patience, my little girls and boys. Santa is watching just to see If you've been good or bad I know you will be full of glee A good kid you are - for that I'm glad. The tree is up and the lights are on The stockings all hung in a row The cookies you baked will be gone When Santa's reindeer land on the snow. Sweet dreams to you, now go to sleep in your bed And if you happen to awake You may see the tracks of the sled But oh, not a sound you will make. You must wait for Santa to leave The house will be quiet and still Before you sneak down to the tree But the wait is all part of the thrill.  Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night!
