The Right Family Christmas Story

The Holidays are a great time for celebrating old traditions as well as creating new ones.  A few years ago, I was introduced to the Right Family Christmas Story and thought it would make a fun tradition or activity for any group that gets together for the Holiday.


To participate in the Right Family Christmas story, each person needs a small gift (try to get equally good or equally bad gifts for the most fun).  One person will not participate but will read the story below.  Every time you hear the reader say "right" you pass the gift in your hand to the right, every time you hear the reader say "left" you pass the gift in your hand to the left.  At the end of the story, the gift in your hand is yours to keep!! I hope you enjoy this little game and maybe it can become a tradition for your family!


The Right Family Christmas Story

Christmas was almost here, and Mother RIGHT was finishing the Christmas baking.  Father RIGHT, Sue RIGHT, and Billy RIGHT returned from their last-minute Christmas errands.

"There is not much LEFT to be done," said Father RIGHT as he came in to the kitchen.

"Did you leave the basket of food at church?" asked Mother RIGHT.   I  LEFT  it RIGHT where you told me to," said Father RIGHT.  "I'm glad my shopping is done," said Billy RIGHT.  "I don't have any money LEFT."

The hall telephone rang, and Susan RIGHT  LEFT  to answer it.  She rushed back and told the family, "Aunt Tillie RIGHT  LEFT  a package for us RIGHT on Grandma RIGHT's porch.  I'll go over there RIGHT away and get it," she said as she LEFT in a rush.

Father RIGHT LEFT the kitchen and brought in the Christmas tree.  By the time Susan RIGHT returned, Mother RIGHT, Father RIGHT, and Billy RIGHT had begun trimming the tree.  The entire RIGHT family sang carols as they finished the decorating.  Then they LEFT all the presents arranged under the tree and went to bed, hoping they had selected the RIGHT gifts for their family.

Now I hope you have the RIGHT present for yourself, because that's all that's LEFT to our story................except to wish you a Merry Christmas.................isn't that RIGHT??????

Wishing everyone Happy Holidays and a blessed New Year!!
