Reindeer Droppings

In a small decorative container, or zip baggie, place small, round chocolate candies (Whoppers, Raisinettes, chocolate covered peanuts, etc.) You could also use Cocoa Puff cereal or unwrapped miniature Mounds, Almond Joy or Baby Ruth candy bars. Seal/cover container, and decorate as desired. Then attach one of the following poems:

#1 I woke up with such a scare when I heard Santa call... "Now dash away, dash away, dash away all! I ran to the lawn and in the snowy white drifts, those nasty reindeer had left "little gifts". I got an old shovel and started to scoop neat little piles of "reindeer poop". But to throw them away, seemed such a waste, So I saved them, thinking ~ you might like a taste! As I finished my task, which took quite awhile, Old Santa passed by and he sheepishly smiled. And I heard him exclaim as he rose in the sky ~ "Well, they're not potty trained, but at least they can fly!"

#2 For all the souls who hate the noise Of Christmas cheer and lights and toys For Mr. Scrooge, and Mrs. too, Here's a little gift for you... A lump of coal won't be enough To make up for the shine and fluff, So, here's a scoop of reindeer poop To offset all that Christmas Goop!!!

#3 Christmas is coming and so are the deer listen closely and you will hear, And 'long with them comes a special treat, Reindeer droppings for you to eat!!!!!

Snowman Poop

In a small decorative container, or zip baggie, place miniature white marshmallows, white mints, white chocolate covered raisins or peanuts, or other white candies. Seal/cover container, and decorate as desired. Then attach one of the following poems:

#1 Heard you've been naughty so here's the scoop all you get for Christmas is snowman poop

#2 Santa's been makin' his list And checkin' it twice He knows that you've been naughty Not nice. . . . . Since coal is so expensive Here's the scoop Santa has left you Snowman Poop!

#3 I heard you've been naughty, So listen: here's the scoop. I'm running short on coal this year, So you get snowman poop. Love, Santa

#4 In the cold of winter when snow arrives, All the snowman dance and feel alive. If you follow in their tracks, You will find little droppings from their cracks. Round and white So sweet and light Eat one eat two And have sweet dreams tonight!

#5 Santa came and went last night Traveling on his worldwide loop Because you weren't so good this year You get no coal just snowman poop Round and white so sweet and light Eat some and have good dreams tonight
