"Santa. Santa is my favorite thing about Christmas. We made cookies for Santa. He's coming for Christmas."
Eila also really likes to watch the elves (elfyourself.com) dance, especially with her favorite people's faces as the elves. She has spent literally hours watching these over and over again.
Christmas lights are amazing to little Eila, who oohs and ahhs everytime ours come on. She does warn us though that the house might burn down if we leave them on we aren't at home. After see the bazillionlights.com display, she wondered why our lights didn't dance to the music...
Eila is also really enjoying our advent wreath and we have The Advent Storybook, which has one fabulous short story each day, leading to Bethlehem.
Even though Eila says that Santa is her favorite part of Christmas, she doesn't even know that he brings gifts - she is excited to share her cookies that she made! And, I think that her favorite part is all of the fun music. She loves Christmas carols. Her current favorites include Silent Night and Holly Jolly Christmas and Jingle Bell Rock.
