Once upon a time, Santa’s hat went missing. The elves were worried because Christmas was just around the corner and Santa Claus couldn't deliver presents without his hat! A snowflake told them she saw it last near the fireplace. When they arrived, they found the hat on the head of a snowman who was dancing to the sounds of bells while holding a candle. The elves asked the snowman to return the hat, but he said he needed it for his dance performance at the North Pole Christmas party. The elves then suggested a solution, they would make a replica hat for the snowman to wear during his dance and Santa could have his original hat back. The snowman agreed and the elves quickly made a replica hat. On Christmas Eve, the snowman danced with the replica hat and Santa delivered presents with his original hat. All the children laughed and enjoyed the snowman's dance performance. The End.
