Reindeer Food

By Courtney Wright and Megan B December 16, 2011

Let me just tell you, that old Santa needs to go on a diet. Mrs. Claus has let us know that those special hard working reindeer are feeling left out. Oh sure, Santa "claims" that he shares the cookies, but the reindeer have a different story.

Now you can help! Grab a few ingredients out of the cabinet and lets show the reindeer just how much we love them too!

Dry oatmeal

Granulated sugar

Colored sugar

Raisins

Mix all ingredients together and put in small baggies. Before your kids go to be on Christmas Eve, have them spread it on your lawn or porch. Make sure to spread it out good. They sparkly sugar will help the reindeer know it's there. And remember there are 9 reindeer and I have it on good authority that Comet is a food hog!

Sprinkle on the lawn at night,
The moon will make it sparkle bright,
Santa's reindeer fly and roam,
This will guide them to your home.
