I am looking for some fun Christmas "gag" gift ideas. Last year, my girls and I packaged "Spare Red Noses" to give their cousins at Christmas. We put raspberry gummy candies (or any red candies will do) in a plastic bag and attached the following poem:
Rudolph's nose is very bright,
He helps guide Santa's sleigh.
Without it in the dark night sky,
They might not find their way!
So, just in case ol' Rudy's nose
Goes dim or on the blink,
You'll have these spare red noses
To repair him in a wink!
I am looking for some similar "gag" gift ideas. I have tried to search the internet, but I haven't found much. I've seen snowman poop, etc. Wondering if someone may have some other fun ideas my girls can help me with. We had fun making these gifts, and their cousins got a kick out them last year.
Hi M.! If you Google "Snowman Soup" you will find a cute idea with hot coco, marshmallows, kisses, and a candy cane--you should be able to find a printable poem too about Snowman Soup through this search! Good luck!

Red, white & green candy corn in a small baggie with glitter (to make it magical). Add instructions for putting in yard on Christmas Eve.
there is a cute poem about snow man poop and you put small marshmellows in the bag. I can look up the poem if you need it. good luck,D.
The Florida showman is fun.
a container with some water,
small artificial carrot,
something to resemble coal for the mouth
beads or similar for eyes.
Hat of some kind and twigs for arms are optional.
If you use this, would love to see the poem that goes with it.
Not sure where she found it, but my MIL gave my kids "coal" in their stockings last year. It was just black rock candy that tasted like black licorice. I would imagine most specialty candy stores would have it or I am sure you could find it online.
Here is the snowman poop poem: Heard you've been naughty so here's the scoop all you get for Christmas is snowman's poop.
You can change it to Reindeer poop too by using raisins instead of marshmallows.
Check out www.heartfeltholidays.net/christmascrafts.html. There is a whole list of things that might interest you. Have fun!
you'll have to sift through when your kids aren't around as some of the stuff on there is just plain offensive. But some of it is funny. And a few things are cute and might work for you.
