MORING cont’d from page 16

Dear Santa,

I want like a toy dinosaur like where you wind him up and it goes round and round! When it goes round and round again, it goes “RAWRRR!” I want a little pretend thing where you put water in it and then pretend coffee comes out. And when you put a pretend toy cup inside of it, then it puts pretend coffee inside of it. I want a toy bus and when you wind it up it goes up and down and around and around and it will move. Merry Christmas, Santa!

Dear Santa, I want to tell Santa about presents. I want a monster truck! I have one already but I want another one. Like the one my grandma and grandpa brings.

Oooooh I wish that I had a giant googly eye like the ones we have in school. A giant googly eye is something that is so silly! It would go “FEE FI FO” and then say “HELLO!” I want some counting cookies. They have them at the Play Village! Merry Christmas!
