Reindeer Trail Mix from Kids Village

Santa's reindeer fly hard through snow, wind, and ice to bring Santa 'round on Christmas Eve night. So when you leave out your cookies, don't forget the deer, these treats are sure to bring them Christmas cheer.

Dasher eats Cheerios to keep a healthy heart; 'cause he knows Santa needs him to do his part.

Dancer is graceful as she flies at daring speeds. What's her secret? It's sunflower seeds.

Prancer's a little clumsy and often gets caught when he twists his reins into a pretzel-shaped knot.

Vixen is beautiful, but can be cunning. Like most girls, chocolate chips will keep her running.

Comet claims it's rice Chex that do the trick, to give his flying an extra kick.

Cupid is in love all the year through. Give her some corn Chex, and she will love you.

Donder, like Santa, keeps his belly nice and round by eating peanuts by the pound.

Blitzen can break through any snowstorm, because energy-packed raisins are keeping him warm.

Rudolph keeps his nose shiny and read by eating red (and green!) Christmas M&Ms!





I thought I had lost the tag they gave us and I couldn't find anything good to replace it on the Internet, so when I found it I had to put it on here so if I loose it again we have a copy of it.
We make a big thing of it because it's a great snack for church and car rides. We put some in a small bag and put it in a small fabric Santa bag/stocking. Then we leave it on the tray with our milk and cookies. Our girls loved finding it spilled on the ground outside because Prancer was such a messy eater.

That is so cute, Brittney. I've heard the recipe before, but never seen the poem. Thanks so much for sharing that!!
