Watch this early cartoon about Rudolph. (It's only about 8 minutes long.) Listen for the words that rhyme and also notice how the structure words are said quickly and unclearly.

You know Dasher and Dancer and Prancer and Vixen
Commet and Cupid and Doner and Blixen
But do you recall the most famous reindeer of all
Rudolph the red nosed reindeer had a very shiny nose
And if you ever saw it you would even say it glows
All of the other reindeer used to laugh and call him names
They never let poor Rudolph join in any reindeer games
Then one foggy Christmas Eve, Santa came to say
“Rudolph with your nose so bright, won’t you guide my sleigh tonight?”
Then how the reindeer loved him as they shouted out with glee
“Rudolph the red nosed reindeer, you’ll go down in history!”
‘Twas the day before Christmas and all through the hills, the reindeer were playing, enjoying the spills of skating and coasting and climbing the willows, and hopscotch and leapfrog with protective pillows. “Look fellas, its Rudolph. His nose is a sight! It’s redder than a beet twice as big and twice as bright! Lookie, lookie! I’m Rudolph!” Poor Rudolph! Where most reindeers’ noses are brownish and tiny, Rudolph’s was red, very large and quite shiny. “Rudolph!” “Go on home, Red Nose! Your mama is callin’ ya!” “Come, come, Rudolph! Tonight you hang up your stocking.” “His nose is a sight! It’s redder than a beet twice as big and twice as bright!”
While way, way up north on this dark foggy night, awaiting the time for his Christmas Eve flight, good old Santa! Hmm… “This fog will be hard to get through.” Quick, quick! Get dressed in a hurry! Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Vixen, Commet, Cupid, Doner, Blixen. Hi-ho!” To keep our direction, we’ll have to fly low! Jump down here, quick! Hi-ho! Whew! Pretty close! Hi-ho! The air was still foggy, the night dark and weird when Santa arrived at the home of the deer. But all this took time and filled Santa with gloom, while slowly he groped toward the next reindeer’s room. The lamp wasn’t burning! The glow came instead from Rudolph’s red nose at the head of the bed. And then came the greatest idea in all history! So Rudolph is told of the dark and delay. “I need you tonight to lead all of my deer on the rest of our flight.”
“Dear Mommy and Daddy, I have gone to help Santa. Don’t worry. Rudolph.” That’s me! “Hurry, Rudolph! It’s very dark here!” With Rudolph’s red nose as a wonderful light, old Santa flew quickly the rest of the night! It all went so fast that before it was day, the very last present was given away.
“Hear ye! Hear ye! A message from Rudolph.” Yes they found Rudolph’s message. It’s all over town. “Hear ye! Hear ye! Rudolph at the stadium! Come one, come all!” The bad deer who used to do nothing but tease him, well, now they’d do anything, only to please him! “Rudolph, my boy, they’ll envy you now, far and near, for no greater honor can come to deer than riding with Santa and guiding my sleigh, the number one job on the number one day. I hope you’ll continue to keep us from grief. I hereby appoint you Commander-In-Chief.” And Rudolph just blushed from his head to his toes until his whole fur was as red as his nose. “Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night.” Then how the reindeer loved him as they shouted out with glee. Rudolph the red nosed reindeer, you’ll go down in history!
It was really a wonderful video, I liked so much and as I told you before it´s one of my favorite song I had practiced and sung with my kids at school!! Take care.
I saw the video and I loved it, it was the best song I´ve sung with my kids at school, and I think the messege is that we must accept a person not for what he looks like but for what is like. Take care.
I want to thank you 'cause it was a really nice video. I had never seen the Rudolph story so I enjoyed it too much. Also I think it`s a good story for kids. Sometimes they feel bad because of their body when they are growing or because of their faces but what really matter it`s inside feelings. We need something from other people and others need us sometime in our lives.
Final message:
"It`s more important what we are than the way we look" Sincerely Paty Alvarez
