Do you give santa anything other than cookies?

For the past 3 years my nephew has wanted to give santa cupcakes rather than cookies. I have no idea where he got this idea from but it makes him happy so my sister and I gladly help him make cupcakes for santa! We still give the traditional milk.

Have your kids ever requested some other treat/sweet for santa other than cookies?

    Today I heard of something new. A bowl of sugar for the reindeer, and Rudolph's nose leaves an imprint in the sugar. Maybe you dip a red cherry in it or something?

    No, it has always been the traditional cookies and milk but i think that is a very original and unique way of 'treating' Santa that your nephew has come up with and could carry on to be a family christmas tradition is the years to come..i mean common Santa must get tired of cookies all the time!!

    Merry Christmas

    I use to leave out vegetables (carrots, celery, etc...), a glass of water, and a bottle of medicine for upset stomachs. I was very concerned about Santa's health. lol, it took many years. But I finally understand why my mom seemed disappointed at my snacking choice for Santa.

    My daughter only wants to do milk and cookies. She likes to make cookies with my grandmother.

    Last year we left out reindeer food too. -- She woke up Christmas morning to see that they got overly excited and ate some of her flower bed.

    When my young sister believed in Santa, he got cookies and milk or mince pies and sherie. The reindeer's got a bowl of water and a few carrots.

    Cookies and milk were traditional at my house growing up. We however also left carrots for the reindeer as well. My mom said later we used to get all excited about seeing the nibble marks from the reindeer. (she however didn't enjoy making them, lol)

    I wonder if I can "influence" my daughter to want to leave cupcakes when she's older (she's only 2). I sure would look forward to eating a cupcake and milk more than cookies.

    They leave cards for Santa and the Elf's to say thank you. Only my son made one last year, my daughter was too young too. We make sugar cookies and of course leave milk.

    No, I on no account left something for Santa or the Easter Bunny. you will desire to on no account snack interior the midst of the night, exceedingly in case you're Santa or the Easter Bunny, because of the fact they are consistently on diets. they are able to consistently discover something interior the refrigerator in the event that they are that hungry. What i % is for somebody to pass away milk & cookies for me & in step with probability a undeniable chocolate egg in my shoe, merely like while i became a new child. Then i'm going to think of approximately leaving something for the Easter Bunny. I guess that Wabbit might like some toddler spinach leaves or maybe slightly asparagus, that's in season; that's in its best suited now. Yum, yum. suited now i might like a snack, too. I forgot to eat & that's 9:30 already. nicely, i think of that's going to likely be total grain toast & strawberry jam with my warm milk. The asparagus will nonetheless be merely tremendous day after today. I guess that wabbit might like toast & jam, too. How approximately you? might you like some, too?

    My son wants to leave him monkey munch (cereal coated with melted peanut butter and chocolate and then rolled in powdered sugar) and coffee. He said Santa needs the coffee to help him stay awake all night. I couldn't argue with that, especially since I'm a coffee fiend.
