This ornament is about 3¼ inches long and opens to about 5 inches. It looks like a regular flip style Moblie Phone and is painted a bright orange. The screen on the outside of the phone says MERRY CHRISTMAS, when you flip the phone open the screen reads WE WISH YOU A MERRY CHRISTMAS which is also the tune the phone plays when the button is pushed. On the inside the rest of the phone has all the buttons a regular phone has. Push the button in the center to play the tune. These ornaments would make great Stocking Stuffers.

History of Gift Giving.
A gift or present is the transfer of something, without the need for compensation. A gift is a voluntary act which does not require anything in return. Even though it can involve a social expectation of reciprocity, or a return in the form of prestige or power, a gift is meant to be free.
By extension the term gift can refer to anything that makes another person happy or less sad, especially as a favor, including forgiveness and kindness even when the other is not kind. Select this link to view our Green Cellphone.
History of Santa Claus
Born in the United States of mixed ethnic and religious heritage, Santa Claus embodies the American ideal of the nation as a great melting pot of cultural identities. Santa Claus became an important folk figure in the second half of the nineteenth century, about the time when Americans were beginning to celebrate Christmas in large numbers. Santa Claus bears a good deal of resemblance to his closest relative, the old European gift bringer St. Nicholas. Indeed “St. Nick” serves as one of Santa’s nicknames.

Many popular songs tell of his North Pole and Christmas Eve activities. Nearly every American child can tell you that Santa is a plump, old man with a white beard who wears a baggy red suit and cap trimmed with white fur. Many send letters to his North Pole workshop describing the gifts they would like to receive for Christmas. They eagerly await Christmas Eve, when he loads his sled with toys for good girls and boys and flies around the world, sliding down chimneys to place the presents under decorated Christmas trees. As if to confirm this Christmas fairy tale, men in Santa suits regularly appear on street corners, at office parties, and in department and toy stores around Christmas time.
