If I were to make a list of holiday traditions, putting together bags of reindeer food would certainly make the list.
A few things about the event change from year to year, but there are others that remain the same:
1. We always do it on a day when all 4 kids can be together.
2. The kids take turns filling their bags with whatever goodies our Christmas Elf left out for them that she knows Santa's reindeer will enjoy.
3. When the bags are filled, the kids write their names on a tag or sticker so that they know whose bag is whose on Christmas Eve.
4. The bags are then moved to a location (usually a special Christmas plate) to be set out until Christmas Eve.
I love looking at the variance of the bags afterwards. Some are a little heavy on the marshmallows and chocolate chips and others are more thoroughly blended/mixed with powdered sugar.
