And wrapping up our packages As neatly as we can.

And we have hung our stocking up Beside the open grate, 

And now there's nothing more to doExcept to wait!

The Week Before Christmas

By Joyce LukeTwas; the week before Christmas and all through the school

Not a pupil was silent, no matter what rule. The children were busy with paper and paste… First came a basket of popcorn to string Then came the Christmas tree (menacing thing). As the tree was brought in there arose a great shout; The pupils were merrily romping about.

THE REINDEERTHE REINDEER

  When, what to my wondering eyes should appear, But a miniature sleigh, and eight tiny reindeer, With a little old driver, so lively and quick, I knew in a moment it must be Saint Nick.  More rapid than eagles his coursers they came,And he whistled, and shouted, and them by name. Now Dasher! Now Dancer! Now Prancer and Vixen! On Comet! On Cupid! On, Donner and Blitzen!" 

It was in 1832 with the publication of Clement Clark Moore's poem 'A Visit from Saint Nicholas' that the reindeer became part of popular Christmas tradition.
