I am going to do something one time and one time only. That something is: post a Walt Disney cartoon. Make no mistake about it I am not a fan of Disney cartoons. With that being said it is Christmas and I'm in the Christmas mood so i'll let it my "No Disney Cartoons" rule slide this one time.
The Night Before Christmas was released on December 9, 1933 and continues the story of 1932's Santa's Workshop. A narrator sings the opening stanzas of the classic poem while we see the house at rest. Santa lands on the roof, comes down the chimney, and opens his bag. The toys march out and decorate the tree, with the toy soldiers shooting balls from their cannon, a toy airplane stringing a garland like skywriting, and the toy firemen applying snow. A blimp delivers the star to the top. Meanwhile, Santa fills the stockings. His laughter awakens the children, who sneak out. The toys rush to their places, and Santa escapes up the chimney just in time. The closing verse is sung.
