Elmo and Abby are getting ready for Christmas by decorating a big, beautiful tree. Elmo has a special wish: he wants everyone to come together and have fun during the holidays. Christmas is all about being with the people we love!
Elmo and his friends sing a happy song about what makes Christmas special. They sing that the best gifts aren’t toys or bikes, but spending time with family and friends. This reminds us that the holidays are about being together and sharing happy moments.
Elmo dreams of a magical Christmas party with all his friends. He imagines Big Bird, Oscar the Grouch, Bert and Ernie, Grover, and Cookie Monster all celebrating together. Elmo’s dream shows how wonderful it is to be with people we care about.
Everyone sings about being together, like one big happy family. This is important because sometimes people feel lonely, especially during the holidays. The song reminds us to reach out and spend time with those we love.
Michael Bublé joins the fun with a song that tells us to believe in ourselves. The song says that dreaming big and believing in our dreams is important. This message fits perfectly with Christmas, a time when we think about our hopes and dreams for the future.
Elmo and his friends show us what Christmas is really about. It’s a time for joy, being with family and friends, and spreading love and kindness. As we celebrate, let’s remember to enjoy these special moments and share the happiness with everyone around us, just like Elmo wishes.
Family and Friends Drawing: Draw a picture of your family and friends celebrating Christmas together. Think about what makes you happy during the holidays. Is it decorating the tree, singing songs, or having a special meal? Share your drawing with the class and talk about why these moments are special to you.
Kindness Chain: Create a kindness chain with your classmates. Each student writes or draws one kind thing they can do for someone else during the holidays on a strip of paper. Connect all the strips to make a chain. Hang it in the classroom to remind everyone of the importance of spreading love and kindness, just like Elmo and his friends.
Holiday Wishes Jar: Make a holiday wishes jar. Write down your wishes for your family and friends on small pieces of paper. These could be wishes for happiness, health, or fun times together. Decorate a jar and place your wishes inside. Share your wishes with your family and talk about how you can help make each other’s wishes come true.
