NOTE: Out of respect for my furry pals during Christmas and Hanukkah, I do not include snappers in either the dog or cat crackers below. Our pets are often already quite excited about the holidays, visitors and lots of activity without the unexpected fright of a Christmas cracker snapper!

Song & Carols Favourites Sheets

My Customers write...

.... Your Christmas crackers brought joy, laughter and ooohs and ahh's to our Christmas morning! We loved the printed tissue crowns and all wore them well into the afternoon. So much nicer than the usual solid color crowns! Mine doubled as a chef's hat! I wore it while I prepared Christmas dinner. It was very festive with the green and red holly print!

We took turns reading our jokes. We hung our little ornaments on the tree and raced to see who could complete their crossword puzzle first.  We all agreed...our son's fiance achieved the loudest "crack" when we popped them open. Thank you so much...we thoroughly enjoyed them! Can hardly wait to see next year's version!
