Child Santa

We have all heard of the story when Santa got stuck in the chimney. Well this story is near enough like that one. Let me tell you the time when Santa was turned into a child. It was an ordinary Christmas Eve when Santa was eating his cookies and milk before delivering the toys.


"Oh my what have we here?" Santa says to his elve picking up a broken toy that was rusting away. “Not sure Santa” the elve says scratching his head. Santa blew off the dust which covered the toy and it filled the room. Suddenly, the dust tickled Santa’s nose and...pop.


“Santa!” The elve shrieks as his hat flies off watching Santa shrink. “What happened?” Santa asks looking up at the elve. “You, you’ve turned into a ch....child Santa” the elve stutters watching Santa. Santa sighs moving away from his signature red suit, covering himself with his baggy top. Santa looks up at the clock. “Ho Ho Ho, look at the time. We need to sort this out and fast” Santa says as the elve picks up broken toy which Santa dropped as he transformed. “It kinda looks like a clown" the elve says holding the toy to the light.


“Wait, this is the tooth fairy symbol” the elve declares pointing the the base of the crumbling toy. “Yes, yes I remember. I built this toy many years ago for an orphan boy to give to the caretaker. The caretaker was a horrid one at that. The tooth fairy placed a spell on the toy to make the older man turn into the age of the child” Santa says excitedly shaking the elve in happiness. “How did the boy or...man grow back?” The elve asks.


"Christmas day” Santa says folding his arms together. “We can’t wait that long” the elve says to himself rubbing his chin. The elve smiles after a few moments “wear this, we will go together with Tuffy and Doogle” the elve says holding a spare elve uniform which was on a cupboard desk. “Good idea, I will meet you at the sleigh” Santa says grasping the elve uniform before popping away to his office.


You can guess what happened next right? Santa and his three loyal elves saved Christmas. They worked together to deliver the toys and Santa returned to normal by early Christmas Day. The magical broken toy? Well...Santa restored it, just in case it was needed for anyone who lost faith in the magic of Christmas.


"Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night” Santa yells in his squeaky childish voice as the last of the presents were delivered.
