We went yesterday. Yesterday we had coffee, hot chocolate, we had cookies. I saw Jake yesterday. We took a picture. I took a picture of Jake, Mikey, and Jason. Jason and Mikey were the elves and Jake was the Santa Claus What do you want for Christmas from the Santa Claus is what I asked Jake They were good (the cookies) The Cookies I like had Chocolate Chips, Coconut, Peanut Butter I liked the coffee They had hot chocolate bar They had candy cane We put different colored tokens to put in the jar. Green, red, and tan. We voted on cookies. For decorations, best tasting, and something else yesterday. They had a yellow M&M and a pretzel. I loved the cookie exchange and the Christmas trees.

LONG ARTICLE ABOUT COOKIE EXCHANGE
By Marcus Womack
This is an article about Cookie Exchange. I play 10 favorite songs on the pop up book. I had a little fun playing music. It was fun. I hope I can sing-a-long in the piano next year. We sit down and meet everyone for the Cookie Exchange and say, “hi”. I like going out and hanging with everybody I really like to communicate with each other The cookie was excellent. IT was okay when I sing and play the piano. IT was fantastic when I sang from the popup song book. 10 favorite Christmas songs are Jingle Bells, Over the River and Through the Woods, Christmas is Coming, Jolly Old St. Nicholas, Deck the Halls, O’ Christmas Tree, O Come All Ye Faithful, Here We Come a Caroling, O’ Little Town of Bethlehem, and What Child is This. I like to go to Cookie Exchange. I said “Maybe I’ll go again next year!”

IT’S A WORK OF ART
By William Claiborn the Third
It was Thursday December the 12th, 2024. Me, Joey, Parchia, William Pittman, and Sophia all went to the art gallery. We looked at all types of pictures. What pictures I did not like is the naked people. I didn’t like the naked people because it has a filthy mind to it But the pictures that I really like is the old fashioned pictures, like the pictures in the 1930s It takes you back in time I think I saw another old fashioned pictures called “Déjà vu ” He had funny hands, a funny face, a funny look It was by Ludwig Meidner I see who made the Coca Cola bottle was the one I liked And then I liked the arcitect of the building of the house. It reminds me of my mama, buying my mama a house with 15 bedrooms, 5 bathrooms, and 5 shower rooms, and a basement, and a small, medium, and large garage. And it also reminds me of building Westtown a gym. I like those little rooms and the picture of the man with the funny face. We ate and then we left.
I like the introduction There’s a school there Like a magic hat A magician comes and does magic for them He messes it up They build him out of snow There’s a lot of kids in that one I like the cop I like when he march He melts I like the credits Jackie Vernon played Frosty. Arthur Rankin Jr. and Jules Bass directed it. It’s my turf. Santa Claus is in that house with the fireplace. He melts. The magic guy wanted his hat back. He was crying in that part. I like the teacher in that story. I like the family. Karen is the girl. He melts. He flies away.
A CHARLIE BROWN CHRISTMAS CHARLES' ENTERT FROSTY THE SNOWMAN
It’s written by Charles M. Schulz. There’s a book about that movie. I like Peppermint Patty, Linus, Snoopy. He buys a Christmas tree for their play. Lucy calls Charlie Brown, “You blockhead!” I like Linus He has that blanket Patty, Violet, and Shermy I like the theme music I like the piano Schroeder plays the piano. I like the school. Pinecrest Elementary School. I like Snoopy. I like his dog house. He decorates his dog house Bill Melendez plays Snoopy I like the credits when he starts singing The group sings They all sing together “Linus and Lucy ”
THE GRINCH
Jim Carrey played the Grinch. He did Batman too. He was Ace Ventura. He was the Riddler. I like his clothes. I like his costume, the make up, the setting of the scenery It’s pretty I like the house It’s a cave I think it’s called Whoville. I like when he gets mad. I like the house. I like the kids in there. The Grinch becomes Santa Claus. Ron Howard directed that one. He played Richie on Happy Days. I like the costume in it. I like his car. It’s the red
bandit. He’s married to Cheryl. She’s a nice woman. I like the dog, Max. He’s cute. I like the director. Dr. Seuss wrote it. I like the toys. It’s fur. Green fur. There’s a little girl in that scene. Christmas is in the theme. Happy Holidays I like Jim Carrey Ace Ventura He’s in Liar Liar too I like the town I like the mirror I say “Happy Holidays” to the cast Hi, Ron Howard!
AINMENT REVIEW
RUDOLPH THE REDNOSED REINDEER
Larry Roemer and Kizo Nagashima directed it in 1964. I like the introduction of it when the music starts. The reindeers make fun of Rudolph. The monster snowman in there, they fight him off. They have to send Rudolph to help. I like the music. I like his family The reindeers They cover his nose with the dark stuff I like the town It’s nice They make fun of him too. They tease him a lot. They laugh at him sometimes. He gets lost in the forest. I like Santa Claus and his wife. Happy Holidays.
