I can't help but think of Marry Poppins whenever I hear the phrase 'Jolly Holiday', but for today's Bento Bloggers & Friends' hop I'm bringing out another favourite tune - Six White Boomers! Miss M is slowly grasping the whole Christmas thing, but she insists that it snows when it's Christmas time. Sorry darling, not here it doesn't! |
Early on one Christmas day, a Joey kangaroo
was far from home and lost, in a great, big zoo
"Mummy, where's my Mummy? They've taken her away!"
We'll help you find your Mummy son, hop up on the sleigh
|
{chorus}
Six White Boomers,
Snow white boomers.
Racing Santa Claus through the blazing sun.
Six White Boomers,
Snow white boomers,
on his Australian run.

The 'blazing sun' Vegemite sandwich was cut with a large circle cookie cutter, the rays made with the FunBites Triangles. The reins were made from a crust off cut. Santa's sleigh is a mini croissant filled with ham & cheese. The presents are made from cheese cut with the FunBites Cube-It. Details of ham cut with the Create-a-Shape. Santa's boot is a cheerio and Joey is cut with the same kangaroo cutter from a crust off cut.
And to top things off I have a Christmas Cracker joke for you!
How do you tell the difference between male & female kangaroos?
The boys go 'boing . . .boing. . . boy-ing' and the girls go 'girl-ing. . . girl-ing. . . girl-ing'
Now 'hop' on over to Blame it on the Bento to see what fabulous festive feast Sarah has cooked up. Keep hopping until you bound back here.
