12 Days of Christmas

I got this from a friend of mine. So cute!
I will have to do it next year with my kids........when they can ring the door bell and run fast enough not to get Caught. :)


December 13th... On the first day of Christmas your true love gave to you, a partridge in a pear tree. Sorry, we can't find the partridge so we are giving you some pears from the tree the partridge flew away from. (can or bottle of pears)

December 14th... On the second day of Christmas your true love gave to you, two turtle doves. But we don't have any, will candy turtles on a bar of dove soap do?

December 15th... On the third day of Christmas your true love gave to you, three french hens. We couldn't find any French hens so we hope you'll enjoy this chicken soup made from American hens. (can of chicken noodle soup)

December 16th... On the fourth day of Christmas your true love gave to you, four calling birds. The calling birds flew way but left a Christmas message for you. (Deliver a Christmas story or music)

December 17th... On the fifth day of Christmas your true love gave to you, five golden rings. We are too poor for real gold so we brought some fresh pineapple rings instead. We hope that's okay. (can of pineapple rings)

December 18th... On the sixth day of Christmas your true love gave to you six geese a layin'. You really don't want messy geese around the house, do you? How about some eggs they left behind? (deliver 6 eggs)

December 19th... On the seventh day of Christmas your true love gave to you, seven swans a swimming. We can find no sign of the swans, but here's some of the bubble bath they used while swimming. (bottle of bubble bath)

December 20th... On the eighth day of Christmas your true love gave to you, eight maids a milking. Here's some milk we got from the eight maids. We think they must have been milking brown cows. (leave carton of chocolate milk)

December 21st... On the ninth day of Christmas your true love gave to you, nine ladies dancing. Here are some canes used by the nine ladies who were out dancing all night- they used the canes to help them limp back home. (leave candy canes)

December 22nd... On the tenth day of Christmas your true love gave to you, ten Lords a leaping. Here is some ibuprofen used by the ten Lords we saw out jumping around. (leave small bottle of ibuprofen)

December 23rd... On the eleventh day of Christmas your true love gave to you, eleven pipers piping. Here's a pipe of your own (leave bubble pipe with bubble solution or a recorder from dollar store)

December 24th... on the twelfth day of Christmas your true love gave to you, twelve drummers drumming. Here's some cookies we drummed up. Hope these keep this from being just another hum-drum day for you. (deliver cookies in person, revealing yourselves and sing them a Christmas carol)
