The Twelve Days of Christmas is originally from Dec 25th to Jan 6th, but for the purpose of this Holiday tradition, we will start on the evening of Dec 12th and go through the 24th. {You’ll understand why once I explain}
The first thing you need to do is to decide who you want the lucky recipient to be.
Next, decide who is going to go with you. The bigger the group the better! {This is great for the whole family to do}
Each night, as late as possible, beginning with the night of Dec 12th {that way it is there when they wake up on the 13th}, you will leave a little gift at the doorstep of the recipient. Just be sure you go un-noticed, you don’t want to reveal who you are!
Then, on Christmas Eve, with a plate of cookies or other treats, you show up on their front step and sing “We Wish You a Merry Christmas” when they answer the door.
For the FIRST day…
“A Partridge in a Pear Tree”, you will need a jar or can of pears and the following printable. On the evening of the 12th, go to your friend or neighbor’s house and put the package on the doorstep without being noticed.
