			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Here is a wonderful online coloring-in game with a selection of Christmas pictures.</p>
<p>Use your left mouse button to navigate this online activity. You can color in an area by choosing a color from the palette and then clicking in the area on the picture that you&#8217;d like to fill. The color you have selected appears in the box above the color palette. Note that you can make any selected color darker or lighter by dragging the black arrow beneath the palette. Besides coloring in, you can also draw freely on the picture. To do this, click on one of the dots (whichever thickness you want your pencil to be) under the text &#8220;DRAWING TOOLS&#8221;. Choose a color from the palette. Then click and drag to draw or write text on the picture. You can switch back to coloring in by clicking the paint-bucket icon. You can print your picture (the green border will not be printed, only your picture will), undo your last actions, and erase your colors and any drawings/text (i.e., reset the picture).</p>
<p>To color in a picture other than the Christmas tree, which is the default picture, select another picture from the drop-down menu shown under &#8220;Color Other Pictures&#8221;. As you will see, there is a fairly large selection. Some are easier than others so there is bound to be one that is suitable for your child!</p>
<p>Why not get your child to write a Christmas message or just sign their name in the blank space? Consider printing out mulitple copies to make into Christmas cards to send out to family and friends. Alternatively, a framed print-out would make a lovely gift for proud grandparents or aunties and uncles. </p>
<p>Another idea is to print the plain black and white version of your chosen picture. It can then be colored in and decorated by hand.</p>

<p>You&#8217;ll need to avoid the falling reindeers and the resulting iceholes in the ground. You only get one life per game.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In this game, your aim is to balance as many gifts on Santa&#8217;s sleigh as possible. Use your left mouse button to grab and place the gifts on the sleigh. Don&#8217;t put all of the gifts on one side of the sleigh because it will become unbalanced. It is best to catch the gifts before they fall from the cloud. If just one gift does not end up on the sleigh, the game is over.</p>
<p>Good luck and happy playing!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In this game you are an 8 year old boy called Kevin. You are very curious about what presents you are going to receive this Christmas. So, after your parents are asleep, you sneak around the house, trying to find where they are hidden!</p>
<p>Use your left-hand mouse button to investigate possible hiding places around the house. Use the menu bar at the bottom to navigate around the different rooms of your house. There is no time limit in this game, so feel free to investigate thoroughly!</p>
<p>The game features Tchaikovsky&#8217;s beautiful music &#8220;Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy&#8221;.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In this game you are Santa Claus, riding through the sky in your sleigh on Christmas Eve. Your aim is to deliver gifts to children who have been good, and coal to children who have been naughty. </p>
<p>Use your mouse to move around in the sky. Press the &#8220;x&#8221; key on your keyboard to get ready to throw gifts. Press the &#8220;c&#8221; key to get ready to throw lumps of coal. Left click your mouse to drop the gifts or coal in the chimneys of the houses. Good children live in the pale-colored houses, and naughty children live in the darker houses. You&#8217;ll earn points for every successful delivery. Every time you drop the wrong thing in a chimney, you will lose points.</p>
<p>Avoid the snowballs that are being thrown by the naughty kids below. If you are hit too many times, you will fall from the sky and the game will be over.</p>
<p>While you are playing, the level on the &#8220;goodifier&#8221; gauge on the left will slowly rise so that it is entirely purple. At this point, you can use your &#8220;z&#8221; key to shoot a &#8220;goodifying&#8221; ray towards the children below. If it touches one of them, they will become good and stop throwing snowballs at you! You will also earn points for this.</p>
<p>You can push your &#8220;p&#8221; key or spacebar at any time during the game. This will pause the game and take you to a screen where you can use the points you have earned throughout the game to do the following: increase your sleigh&#8217;s robustness towards snowballs, increase the rate at which your goodifier gauge charges, increase the rate at which you can pick up and drop off presents.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This cute game (provided by Ultimate Arcade&trade;) allows you to create a customized snowman/snowwoman image and then send it to your friend(s) as a Christmas e-card. You can make a traditional-looking snowperson or a wacky looking one! This is a free service that is especially fun for children!</p>
<p>First you choose whether you want a male or female snowperson. You then make the snowman/snowwoman&#8217;s face, add arms, and dress him/her up. Note that there are tabs for both &#8220;TOPS&#8221; and &#8220;BOTTOMS&#8221; under the &#8220;CLOTHES&#8221; options, and there are two pages of &#8220;HATS&#8221;. You can even click the &#8220;RANDOM SNOWMAN&#8221; button to get a randomly dressed snowperson. You will get either a random selection of snowmen or snowwomen, depending on what you chose in the previous step. You can keep clicking &#8220;RANDOM SNOWMAN&#8221; until you get a &#8220;random&#8221; snowperson that you like. For extra, rather odd options, click the bells to the left. Once you are happy with your snowperson, click &#8220;NEXT STEP&#8221;. You&#8217;ll now see a screen with boxes for typing in your email address, the email address(es) of your recipient(s), and a Christmas message. You can preview the e-card before you send it. After you click &#8220;SAVE AND SEND&#8221;, the e-card will be sent to your friend(s), and you will be sent an e-card notification to your own email address.</p>

<p>PLEASE NOTE: I did not make this game and I therefore do not know if the email addresses you type in are stored anywhere or used in any way.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>You are Santa and your aim in this game is to catch as many presents as possible and place them in your sleigh. The more presents you collect, the more points you will get. Different presents carry different points. The blue bear will give you the most points.</p>
<p>Use the arrow keys on your keyboard to play. To successfully catch a present, you just need to be in the right place at the right time. You won&#8217;t be able to catch presents if they have already bounced off of the floor. You can carry several presents at once, although your movement will be slowed down.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This cute Korean game allows you to decorate a Christmas tree.</p>
<p>Use the left-hand menu to pick from a range of tree styles with different types of tinsel and streamers. On the right you will find decorations that you can put on your tree. Click and drag the decorations using your mouse. Make sure to look at the second set of available decorations by clicking the number 2. You can use each decoration as many times as you like and you can move decorations after you have placed them. You can remove all the individual decorations that you have added by clicking &#8220;Reset&#8221;. Once you are happy with your tree, you can click &#8220;Print&#8221; to print it.</p>
<p>Note that you can use your mouse to move the little snowball-rolling man at the bottom. Left click him and drag, and you&#8217;ll see that he follows your mouse movement. If you want him in a certain place on your printout, click the &#8220;Print&#8221; button straight after you have moved him.</p>
<p>Why not use this to make free Christmas cards this year? All you need is a printer, ink, and paper.</p>

<p>Watch what happens when you place a snowman, Santa, star, or angel somewhere other than on the tree!</p>
