Merry Christmas! It’s Day Four of our Countdown ’til Christmas 🎄 Check back each day until Christmas for a new story!  Today's is “Toinette and the Elves,” Part 1, by Susan Coolidge.

If you enjoy the story, you might also like my video series. Today, we read this story and also talked about St. Nicholas celebrations in Turkey, learned “Deck the Halls," and sang “The First Noel.” You can watch it here: https://youtu.be/Cpx5efS7BK4

It’s a dream of mine to have a business making high-quality, educational children’s entertainment. As you can imagine, creating content like this takes a great deal of time, energy, and other resources. I currently receive no pay or outside assistance toward these projects. I offer as much of my work as I can for free because I want it to be accessible to anyone who might enjoy it. But, if you are able to make a donation to help support my work, I would be so grateful! Any amount helps me to be able to continue bringing you and your family entertainment like this. You can find my virtual Tip Jar at https://paypal.me/ashleywagnerarts. Thank you so much for your generosity!

Also, I have recently started creating PrincessGrams: personalized, magical, musical greetings from your favorite characters! I'd love to help you make a memorable gift for someone you love - learn more and send one at www.PrincessGrams.com!

From my heart to yours - Merry Christmas! ❤️
