A little Christmas magic ...
Over here in sweltery hot Australia, Christmas is now done and dusted. We are all enjoying our well earned hangovers and considering getting in the pool.

This year, I am hosting family including a two year old. My kids are 10 and 6. A bit too old to believe in Santa. I conscripted them into a little magic on Christmas Eve.

We cut out reindeer footprints and laid them down from the front door, into the lounge room, with a little tango in front of the Christmas tree, before proceeding through the house and out the back door.

And a large pile of sultanas as reindeer poo. Squeals of delight from two year old niece on Christmas morning was awesome.

Hold on
Too old to believe in Santa at 6?

Yeah 6 is still firmly in believe in Santa territory

Only if you have thick children.

Probably not when they have a 10 year old sibling.
I seem to recall I was at least deeply scheptical at 6 so had I had an older sibling I'm sure I would have stopped beleiving completely.

Extra points for grabbing a handful of the
reindeer shit and eating it.
