Every year our family picks a house in our neighbourhood that we feel could use some holiday magic. Perhaps it’s a neighbour we know has had a rough year, or even a stranger we haven’t met.
Each of the 12 nights before Christmas, we leave a small gift anonymously at their door. While the first few gifts are easy to deliver unnoticed, it is sometimes difficult to avoid detection by determined night-owls. The gifts vary, home-made or store-bought. If there are children in the house we’ll leave small toys, otherwise ornaments, candles and other more generic gifts are left instead. The gifts need not be expensive – it’s the thought behind them that counts here.
Each gift is labelled with “On the 1st Day of Christmas…” through to the “12th Day” and signed simply “Santa’s Elves.” On Christmas Eve, when the 12th gift is delivered, we leave a letter explaining our desire to spread holiday spirit, urging the recipient to continue the tradition the following year.
Random acts of kindness epitomize the Spirit of Christmas. We hope that others may be inspired to join us in this tradition, as it adds a little magic to the lives of everyone involved.
Cheery the Elf.
I'd be happy to share our "First Day of Christmas" Letter with you - if you e-mail me I'll send it to you.

Got a few. Putting up the tree and decorations. Listening to Christmas music. Watching Christmas movies. Wrapping, hopefully with Santa wrapping paper. Reading either "A Christmas Carol" or The Life and Adventures of Santa Claus." Putting up the family Nativity scene. And of course, wearing my Santa hat.
