Santa has a great big belly, He really loves jelly. He delivers our presents, We open our presents. He fills us with cheer, When he comes down the chimney I fill with fear. He wears red clothes, His nose really glows. He really jiggles, When he giggles.

Bells Santa jingles it, Reindeer shakes it, Churches ring it, Kids listen to it, Angels hear it, Music plays it, Carolers sing it, Bells. Jayaunna Brunner Grade 3, Arts Academy at Summit Christmas Decorations Christmas decorations look good on my tree, They are very pretty to me, Christmas decorations could be lights, Sometimes they are very bright. Christmas decorations are the best things ever, Christmas decorations are ugly, never, They are set up at certain times, Christmas decorations are very fine. Christmas decorations make Santa surprised, Some decorations Santa doesn’t recognize, Christmas decorations are nice to the eyes, Sometimes they even make people cry. Rhya Eaves Grade 3, Arts Academy at Summit Bells People ring it, Children hear it, Churches use it, Reindeer wear it, Angels play it, Trees carry it, Santa rings it, Bells.
