<p><strong>Rudy&#8217;s Rockin&#8217; Pretzels</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>12 oz. of Orville Redenbacher&#8217;s butter flavored popcorn oil (or olive oil)</li>
<li>1 tsp. garlic powder</li>
<li>1/2 tsp. onion powder</li>
<li>2 TBS dill weed</li>
<li>1 envelope of Hidden Valley Ranch Dressing Mix</li>
<li>2 bags (16 oz each) of pretzels</li>
</ul>
<p>(We made chunky ones with broken sourdough pretzels and we made them with Christmas shaped mini pretzels. We definitely liked the mini pretzels best.)</p>
<ol>
<li>Whisk first five ingredients together in a large bowl and then transfer to a large ziploc bag.</li>
<li>Add pretzels to ziploc bag, seal and shake so all pretzels are covered.</li>
<li>Place in 300 degree oven for 30 minutes or so, stirring every 10 minutes until all oil is absorbed.</li>
</ol>
<p>Once the pretzels were made and tested (oh yeah, they are yummy) we packaged them up in treat bags with our own recipe tags. My son made the cutest reindeer graphic for me so it had to be on the tag. You can actually get the <a href="http://printables4kids.com/silly-reindeer-coloring-page-and-gift-tag/">coloring page version of this silly reindeer on my Printables4Kids.com</a> site.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class="pin-it-button-wrapper"><a href="javascript:void((function(){var e=document.createElement('script');e.setAttribute('type','text/javascript');e.setAttribute('charset','UTF-8');e.setAttribute('src','http://assets.pinterest.com/js/pinmarklet.js?r='+Math.random()*99999999);document.body.appendChild(e)})());" id="PinItButton" title="Pin it on Pinterest">Pin it</a></div><p>Friday the kids were doing the snow dance as the forecast was for the biggest snow we have had in years! They have had fun playing out in the snow, throwing snowballs, and trying to build a snowman.  We decided to keep the snow fun going with this super simple craft we found at FamilyFun.com &#8211; <a href="http://familyfun.go.com/crafts/snowball-soap-surprise-800815/">Snowball Soap</a>.</p>
<p>You need 4 bars of ivory soap, 1/2 cup of lukewarm water and if you want to really make them fun, some little plastic penguins to hide inside. We couldn&#8217;t find the penguins anywhere near us so we made the snowballs without toys.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.celebrate-it.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/snowball-soap1.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-517" title="Snowball Soap" src="http://www.celebrate-it.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/snowball-soap1.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="375" /></a></p>
<p>Using a cheese grater, grate the bars of soap and transfer to a large bowl. Little ones need supervision for this part!</p>
<p><a href="http://www.celebrate-it.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/snowball-soap2.com_.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-518" title="Snowball Soap" src="http://www.celebrate-it.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/snowball-soap2.com_.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="375" /></a></p>
<p>Gradually add the lukewarm water (we added a few drops of peppermint extract to the water for a nice minty smell) and work the mixture to the consistency of clay. Shape the mixture in to snowballs.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.celebrate-it.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/snowball-soap3.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-519" title="snowball soap" src="http://www.celebrate-it.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/snowball-soap3.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="314" /></a></p>
<p>Once you shape the snowballs, place them on a tray to dry. Ours took about 24 hours to completely dry. If you are adding the toy penguins you add them as you are creating the soapballs. We also thought it would look nice if you sprinkled the snowballs with a bit of glitter before letting them dry.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.celebrate-it.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/snowball-soap4.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-520" title="Snowball soap balls" src="http://www.celebrate-it.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/snowball-soap4.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="522" /></a></p>
<p>When they are dry, package them up in a <a href="http://www.shareasale.com/r.cfm?u=172150&amp;b=162837&amp;m=15302&amp;afftrack=&amp;urllink=www%2Ebeau%2Dcoup%2Ecom%2Ffavor%2Dbags%2Ehtm">cute gift sack</a> and give them as inexpensive gifts. We gave some to the kids in our neighborhood today and they loved them.</p>
<p>One quick note of caution before cleaning up your work utensils &#8211; rinse them COMPLETELY in the sink before putting them in the dishwasher. I failed to do this and my dishwasher was FULL of soap suds. I had to run the load twice and do an extra rinse cycle. Yikes!</p>

You know &#8211; one with toys that you build on to make a Christmas scene as the days get closer and closer to the big day. The Lego and Playmobil advent calendars have always been the most popular with my son, but my daughters like the Littlest Pet Shop and Polly Advent calendars the best.</p>
<p>I have searched for the new releases this year and have found more than 10 advent calendars that I expect to be hits with the kids:</p>

LEGO originally got its name from founder Ole Kirk Christiansen who combed the Danish words &quot;Leg Got&quot; which means &quot;play well&quot;. He later realized that LEGO in Latin translates to &quot;I put together.&quot; The LEGO set became a standard of creative play for children worldwide, unlocking the creativity to build vehicles, buildings, cities and more. Historians point to the invention of the wheel as a major turning point in world history. The invention of the LEGO wheel had the same monumental effect in the history of LEGO, making it possible to create cars, trucks and eventually the LEGO train building set that is one of the most successful LEGO sets of all time. LEGO currently produces about 20 billion LEGO bricks a year and has sold over 400 billion LEGOs in their history &#8211; enough for every person on the planet to have over 60 LEGOs each!</p>

<p class="pspsText pspsDescription">The Advent Calendar Dragon&#8217;s Land contains twenty-four surprise items for each day of Advent. Includes a dragon land backdrop, two figures, two horses, dragon, treasure chest, and many other accessories. It is the perfect gift for the holiday season. Once upon a time in 1876, there was a locksmith named Andreas Brandstatter. Mr. Brandstatter planted a magical seed that would eventually blossom into Playmobil by founding an eponymous lock and metal fitting company in Furth, Germany. By the 1930s, Playmobil&#8217;s pretend play had again been redefined; manufacturing telephones, cash registers, and various items for toy shops using sheet metal. At the beginning of the 1950s, Horst Brandstatter, the Playmobil&#8217;s current owner, came on board and started a new era in the company history. He updated Playmobil pretend play products, searched out new markets and focused production on his favorite material, plastic. In 1958, the hula hoop craze gripped the world, and Horst Brandstatter was determined to perfect the pretend play toy that would inspire further exploration. Realizing that the technique, using air pressure, hot plastic hoses, and shape molds, could also produce basically any shape (in addition to the traditional bottles and hoops), Mr. Brandstatter created the first prototype Playmobil pretend play item, a closed racing car manufactured in a single production step. From that point on, the company expanded rapidly with products in toys. Playmobil was introduced at the 1974 International Toy Fair in Nuremberg and by using an innovative marketing strategy, parents and children responded uniformly with fascination and enthusiasm, to Playmobil.</p>

<p class="pspsText pspsDescription">It s a marriage of two classics: The Nutcracker and Advent calendars. Front cover flaps part like stage curtains to reveal 24 full-color illustrated story-books. Books are numbered, and like the peekaboo windows of Advent calendars, they re meant to be opened and read, one per day, from December 1 until Christmas Eve. From a first glimpse of the Stahlbaum house (#1) to the duel between the Nutcracker and the Mouse King (#14) to the magical Sugar Plum Fairy (#20), the board books retell the complete story. In addition, with their gold-thread loops and four different trim sizes, the jewel-like books are designed to be hung on the Christmas tree year after year</p>

For many  people, their childhood memories of Santa Claus are the best Christmas memories  they have. Keeping your child believing in Santa, however, can be a daunting  task. Children are smart these days, and some of the old Santa tricks just  don’t get by them anymore. My 7-year old has really been on me this year, asking repeatedly, <strong><em>“Is there a Santa Claus?”</em></strong><strong> </strong></span><span style="font-size: small;"> Every family  may have slightly different Christmas traditions with regards to Santa Claus,  but there are some very easy things any person can do to keep the belief in  Santa at an all time high. The following <strong>7</strong> techniques will keep your child believing in the magic and wonderment of Santa  Claus and you don’t have to be familiar with the history of Santa Claus to  apply them.<strong> </strong></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small;"> <strong>1)  Have your child write a <a href="http://www.shareasale.com/m-s.cfm?u=172150&amp;m=17395&amp;b=1677">Santa Letter</a>.</strong> This can be a simple letter that your  child can write to Santa Claus. Children absolutely love to write a letter to  Santa, but they occasionally need a little parental guidance to pull it off.<strong> </strong></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small;"><strong> </strong>Help your  child include a special list of gifts they desire for Christmas into the Santa  letter. Many children enjoy getting more creative by drawing or cutting out  pictures that represent the gifts they want.<strong> </strong></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small;"> Once the  child’s Santa letter is finished, simply mail it to the North Pole. Mail it to  the following Santa Claus address: Santa Claus, 1 Candy Cane Lane, North Pole  00001. <em>Don’t bother using a return address,  you wouldn’t want it to return as ‘undeliverable’ for any reason.</em><strong> </strong></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small;"> <strong>2)  Write a <a href="http://www.shareasale.com/m-s.cfm?u=172150&amp;m=17395&amp;b=1677">Letter from Santa</a> and have your child receive it in the mail</strong>. Create a personalized letter from  Santa by directly mentioning your child’s name and certain information about  your child in the text. This will make for a much more believable Santa letter.  Be sure to make these letters from Santa different for each child in the same  household. The child will have no doubt that Santa Claus is coming to town  after they receive their personalized letter from Santa!<strong> </strong></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small;"><strong> </strong>“I can honestly  state as a parent that the personalized letter from Santa has single handedly  restored my son’s belief! The look of shock and amazement on his face when he  got an ‘authentic letter from Santa’ quickly abolished any doubt he previously  had about Santa Claus.”</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small;"> Print the  Santa letter on authentic looking letterhead, as this will help to reinforce  the believability. Many different styles of paper can be found at your local  office supply store.<strong> </strong></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small;"> You can add  to the fun by getting your letter from Santa postmarked at the North Pole.  Simply send your Santa letter inside another sealed, stamped envelope to: North  Pole Christmas Cancellation, Postmaster, 5400 Mail Trail, Fairbanks, AK 99709-9999. <em>(It needs to arrive by December 15th)</em><strong> </strong></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small;"> Many parents  add a certificate for being on Santa’s “Nice List” along with the Santa Letter  for added effect. Another great item to add with the Santa letter is a Santa  Claus coloring sheet. Combining the personalized Santa letter, the nice certificate,  and the Santa Claus coloring sheet is a sure fire method for keeping your child  believing.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small;"> <strong>3)  Have your child leave milk and cookies out for Santa Claus on Christmas Eve.</strong> This is simple enough to do with  your child. It lets your child know YOU still believe, too. Make it a bonding  experience for you and your child by baking the cookies together on Christmas  Eve. Don’t underestimate how powerful this can be for creating joyful memories  of Santa Claus, for both you and your child. Did you know that Santa’s favorite  cookie recipe is Chocolate Chip?<strong> </strong></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small;"> Put the  fresh cookies on a plate next to a glass of cold milk. You can even put a short  letter to Santa Claus next to the cookies and milk. These tasty treats will  give Santa the energy he needs to continue traveling to the millions of other households  awaiting his arrival.<br />
<strong> </strong></span></p>
<p>Don’t forget  to leave some crumbs on the table Christmas morning. Your child will feel  honored that Santa Claus ate the whole plate of cookies and drank all of the  milk before rushing on his way.<strong> </strong></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small;"> <strong>4)  On Christmas Eve, have your child sprinkle reindeer food on the lawn.</strong> Santa Claus gets milk and cookies on  Christmas Eve, but what about Rudolph and the rest of the joyful gang? What do  they eat? Well, reindeer food, of course!<strong> </strong></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small;"> You can make  a batch of environmentally friendly reindeer food with common grocery items such  as oats or granola. <strong><em>(Do not use potentially hazardous items, such as glitter in your  reindeer food.  Although this may make  the reindeer food appear to be magical in some way, it can be extremely  dangerous if ingested by small children, should they decide to ‘sample’ the  reindeer food. It can also be potentially hazardous to the small animals  outside such as rabbits, dogs, or cats that may eat the food.)</em></strong><strong> </strong></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small;"> Once you  have the reindeer food mixed up, walk outside with your child on Christmas Eve  night and explain the importance of making sure Santa’s sleigh team stays fed. Sprinkle  a small amount onto your yard near bushes or trees.<strong> </strong></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small;"> This healthy  reindeer snack will give Rudolph and the rest of the reindeer the nourishment  they need to continue flying Santa’s heavy sleigh into the night. Your child will  be proud for helping Santa Claus on his journey, and is sure to raise the  belief in Rudolph and the other reindeer as well. <strong> </strong></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small;"> <strong>5)  Leave Santa Claus tracks in your house on Christmas Eve.</strong> Being sure to not stain your carpet,  leave some dirty boot prints by the fireplace (or doorway). Be sure to draw  attention to the Santa Claus footprints on Christmas morning. To a child, this  is solid evidence that Santa had been to their house.<strong> </strong></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small;"> <strong>6)  A month or so after Christmas, send your child a postcard from Santa Claus on  vacation.</strong> This not  only keeps your child believing, but reminds your child that Santa is in their  hearts all year long. It also answers the common question posed by children  after Christmas, <em>“Where is Santa Claus  now?”</em><strong> </strong></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small;"> Be sure to  make the postcard from somewhere very warm and sunny. After all, Santa does  need a break from all that North Pole snow.<strong> </strong></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small;"> <strong>7)  Mail your child a birthday greeting from Santa Claus.</strong> This technique works in tandem with  the personalized <a href="http://www.shareasale.com/m-s.cfm?u=172150&amp;m=17395&amp;b=1677">Santa Letter</a> you mailed your child previously. Mailing your  child a simple birthday card from Santa is an excellent way to keep your  child’s belief high throughout the year. Your child will think, <em>“Wow! Santa actually knows my birthday!”</em> The shock on your child’s face will be priceless.<strong> </strong></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small;"> Parents that  have extremely intelligent kids or kids that are getting slightly older will genuinely  need to utilize all <strong>7</strong> techniques  mentioned above to keep their child believing in Santa Claus.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small;"> These  techniques will assure your child is one of the millions of children that write  Santa Letters each and every holiday season… one of the millions of children that  believe wholeheartedly in Santa Claus.<strong> </strong></span></p>
