Oh I and I have just found this and am going to learn it to sing to Amy & Sophie in years to come (I didn't grow up in NZ)
On the first day of Christmas
My true love gave to me
A pukeko in a ponga tree
On the second day of Christmas
My true love gave to me
two kumera
And a pukeko in a ponga tree

On the third day of Christmas
....
and so on, until...

On the twelfth day of Christmas
My true love gave to me
Twelve piupius swinging
Eleven haka lessons
Ten juicy fish heads
Nine sacks of pipis
Eight plants of puha
Seven eels a swimming
Six pois a twirling
Five - big - fat - pigs !
Four huhu grubs
Three flax kits
Two kumera
And a pukeko in a ponga tree!

I it

Ay Ay Ay, it Christmas by Ricky Martin and Santa Baby by Eartha Kitts cuz both songs cracks me up.

Girl, it's that time for year to sing Feliz Navidad
Underneath the tree there should be some presents there from Santa Claus
Girl, I'm begging you, don't be mad at me
I forgot it's Christmas, and you're oh so hard to try to please

Ay, ay, ay, it's Christmas and I don't know what to do
Ay, ay, ay, it's Christmas and I don't have a gift for you
I can give you ay, ay, ay
All you need is ay, ay, ay
Un poquito ay, ay, ay
On this Christmas night, yeah (Whoo!)

Girl, pretend my arms are like shiny, big, red bows
Wrapped around your kisses underneath the magic mistletoe
Girl, my gift of love is comin' from the heart
Peace on earth, goodwill to all starts right here where we are

Everybody sing
Ay, ay, ay, it's Christmas and I don't know what to do
Ay, ay, ay, it's Christmas and I don't have a gift for you
I can give you ay, ay, ay
All you need is ay, ay, ay
Un poquito ay, ay, ay
On this Christmas night, yeah (Whoo!)

**********************************************

Santa Baby,
Just slip a sable under the tree
For me
Been an awful good girl
Santa Baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight

Santa baby, a '54 convertible too
Light blue
I'll wait up for you, dear
Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight

Think of all the fun I've missed
Think of all the fellas that I haven't kissed
Next year I could be just as good
If you'll check off my Christmas list

Santa Baby, I want a yacht and really thats not
Alot
Been an angel all year
Santa Baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight

Santa honey, one little thing I really need
The deed
To a platinum mine
Santa Baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight

Santa cutie, and fill my stocking with a duplex
And cheques
Sign your 'x' on the line
Santa cutie, and hurry down the chimney tonight

Come and trim my Christmas tree
With some decorations bought at Tif-fa-ny
I really do believe in you
Lets see if you believe in me

Santa Baby, forgot to mention one little thing
A ring
I don't mean on the phone
Santa Baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight
Hurry down the chimney tonight
Hurry...tonight

O Holy night is my absolute fav christmas carol. Represents the birth of Jesus which is is important to me and my family. The kids love it too and Alize has just learnt the chorus and sings it with us now lol.

Oh Holy Night

O holy night, the stars are brightly shining,
It is the night of the dear Savior's birth;
Long lay the world in sin and error pining,
Till He appeared and the soul felt it's worth.
A thrill of hope the weary soul rejoices,
For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn;

Fall on your knees, Oh hear the angel voices!
O night divine, O night when Christ was born!
O night divine, O holy night, O night divine.

Led by the light of Faith serenely beaming
With glowing hearts by His cradle we stand
So led by light of a star sweetly gleaming
Here come the wise men from Orient land
The King of Kings lay thus in lowly manger
In all our trials born to be our friend.

Fall on your knees, Oh hear the angel voices!
O night divine, O night when Christ was born!
O night divine, O holy night, O night divine.

Truly He taught us to love one another
His law is love and His gospel is peace
Chains shall He break for the slave is our brother
And in His name all oppression shall cease
Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we,
Let all within us praise His holy name.

Fall on your knees, Oh hear the angel voices!
O night divine, O night when Christ was born!
O night divine, O holy night, O night divine.

Oh Holy night is my fave, too. It gives me goose bumps cos it represents "Christmas" and the true meaning of it. There is a FANTASTIC version by Tevin Campbell on A very special Christmas Volume 2, and Ann Murray does a shiver version as well. I love it..

And, I love all I want for christmas is you, Rock around the christmas tree, jungle bell rock, Feliz Navidad and Snoopy - its not Chrsitmas witout snoopy...

Snoopy's Christmas is awesome and I love the version of "All I want is for christmas" that the little girl (Joanna?) sings in Love Actually.
