but what about his reindeer? Magic Reindeer Food lays a
glittering, shiny path to guide the reindeer on Christmas Eve.
[Note: while many Internet recipes for Magic Reindeer Food
call for "craft glitter", this ingredient can harm birds or wildlife
if eaten. Substitute colored sugar crystals and be kind to animals!]

1/2 | cup | sugar |
1/4 | cup | red or green sugar crystals (i.e. for cake decorating) |

Be sure to take this magic food and sprinkle on the
lawn.
On Christmas, Santa's reindeer travel miles before the dawn.
The smell of oats and the shining path will guide them on their way,
And you'll wake up to Santa's gifts next morn on Christmas Day!
