Are you ready for the reindeer!

 

Hold on to your hats because you're about to learn why Santa's reindeer are all girls, why their feet change with the seasons, and how they can get by eating only algae and fungus!  The reindeer, or caribou as we call them in North America, have more than just their Christmas Eve job with Santa going for them.  They've been a part of the culture of the Northern Peoples for centuries and their popularity has only grown over the years.  As usual, there are several interactive activities that will make learning fun and retention automatic in the reindeer study.
