A Christmas Surprise

Each month my mother-in-law writes my children a poem or story that is seasonal or holiday related. We all loved the Christmas story she just sent, so I thought I would share it with you. If you like it, change the "chipmunk names" to those of your own children and the "gifts" to things that relate to your family. Then read it aloud to your children and allow them to illustrate it. Combine the pages to create your own family Christmas story.

Here are some of our illustrations:
