The Lost Christmas Sparkle

A story about Christmas
for your Preschooler.

The kingdom twinkled with lights. The scent of gingerbread filled the air. Glimmer Puff floated near a tall castle gate with Princess Zoombella by her side.

Suddenly, the Christmas sparkle was gone! The lights seemed dim. Glimmer Puff gasped. “Oh no! Where is our special glow?” asked Princess Zoombella with wide eyes.

They saw a shiny bell lying on the snowy ground. It did not ring. Glimmer Puff shook it, but no sound came. This was strange.

Glimmer Puff and Princess Zoombella floated and skipped through the busy streets. “We must ask our neighbors for help,” said Glimmer Puff. The kingdom felt quiet without sparkle.

They knocked on a neighbor’s door. The neighbor said, “I’m baking cookies to share. That might help bring the sparkle back!” Glimmer Puff thanked the neighbor.

At another home, a neighbor offered a small red bow. “Sharing something small can still bring big joy,” Princess Zoombella whispered. They kept going with hopeful hearts.

They noticed a cozy lantern flickering in a window. Its flame danced but seemed faint. The lantern looked lonely without its glimmer.

Glimmer Puff spoke gently, “When things feel missing, we can share our smiles and kind words.” Princess Zoombella nodded. She gave a wave to a passing neighbor. The neighbor waved back with a smile.
