Gentle. Kind. Compassionate. Good spirited. Sincere. Would best fit with a deeper and older voice. 

  • We grownups have to be careful with candy and presents and everything wrapped up in Christmas. All of our bustling around from store to store. Sometimes we are looking for those things to make us happy. But really they should be reminders... to help us stop and remember that we give gifts to say to our friends... I am willing to love you through my pain as Christ has loved me. And so Marianne, that is why this candy cane has this funny shape.

  • No, I suppose it isn't. Here... why don't you try this one. Fresh off the press... maybe it will knock your socks off.

  • Because... Hold on. Listen. Do you hear that music over there? Here, slow down for a second so I can catch my breath.

Energetic. Fiery. Curious. Playful. Wise for her years. Looking for a voice that could fit the general ages of 8-12. 

  • Hmmm.... uhhh... it needs more peppermint. Definitely more peppermint. Like so pepperminty that it could knock your woolly socks right off... or like you could stand with grandma under the mistletoe, but you know, with confidence.

  • (giggling) Grandpa your beard is all sticky! 

  • (curious) How come people's tongues freeze to metal railings if people are 37 degrees Celsius?

Average kid. Quiet. Not over the top energetic. Goes with the flow. No strong accents. 

  •  I dont care that much. I guess its whatever to me. As long as she doesnt take away our candy, I dunno. I dont care I guess. Well, thanks Mr. Silas. See you around.

  • Uh, uh I'll have 12 gumdrops, a gingerbread cookie, and a bag of maple syrup popcorn.
