This morning, everyone was up early. Father Christmas fed all his reindeer, then he went into his office to read children's letters. The elves opened the workshop and they started to make some toys. What a beautiful doll! What a pretty train! The elves love to sing when they're working. It's merrier like that. Let's sing with them!

Clever stuff happening!
