“We could be the characters in a
*Canadian* Christmas Play”
said the Christmas Bear to his friend on the rocking horse.
“You are such a jolly Christmas bear” laughed the Mistletoe.
“Not to forget about you! You make everyone kiss”,
grinned the Christmas Bear.
“I would like this very much to come true”,
said the Christmas Angel beneath the Christmas tree.
“Just look at me!”
“I came here many years ago, I was dusty and my dress was a mess.
I had been hidden in the back of a variety store for ages.
I missed the presence of happy children singing by the
Christmas tree and Santa sliding down the chimney.
Look at me now in my fancy dress and shimmering poinsettias.
I feel really good about myself. Everyone who visits likes me.”
“You do look pretty fancy and angelic”, said the Nutcracker.
All the others in the festive Christmas parlour agreed with him.
The Christmas Bear stood up and said:
“I have an idea!”
Suddenly it became very quiet in the Christmas parlour.
“Go on and explain, Christmas Bear”, urged the Nutcracker.
“How do you all feel about a Christmas party?”
asked the Christmas Bear.
“You mean it” cried out all the other decorations in the parlour.
“It would be our first Christmas party!”
They all clapped excitedly.
“Cool”, the Nutcracker said, “I suggest that we retire early.
Please, Christmas Bear switch off the Christmas lights.
Tomorrow everone in the house will be gone for the day.”
“All in favour put up your hand!”
The Christmas Bear grinned when all hands went up.
“Okay friends, put on your party thinking caps”
laughed the Christmas Bear.
Early next morning they shared their party plans.
A few days later they held their first Christmas party.
They had a marvellous time and voted
the Christmas Mouse as their
“Santa Clouse”.
He… He… He… He… He… He…
*Let’s have a New Year’s play!*
“We all agree”, they yelled with glee.
Come and see our PLAY here just before the New Year!
THE END.
