And one final little "reindeer" idea....A recipe for Reindeer Food! This recipe is actually for Santa's reindeer using oatmeal and colored sugar (although glitter or sprinkles work just as well!). As the poem goes...

Be sure to take this magic food and sprinkle on the lawn,
On Christmas, Santa's reindeer travel miles before the dawn.
The smell of oats and glitter path will guide them on their way
And you'll wake up to Santa's gifts next morn on Christmas Day!

But here's a great recipe for your little reindeers.
