在这部圣诞前夜动画/儿童片中,静谧之夜，天空下起鹅毛大雪。这是圣诞前夜，孩子们早早上床睡觉，怀着对圣诞礼物的畅想进入梦乡。在遥远的天际，由远及近传来了欢快悦耳的鹿铃声。健壮的驯鹿拉着圣诞老人的雪橇来到城镇的上空，他们为好孩子们带来期盼已久的圣诞礼物。雪橇停到一幢大房子的房顶上，胖乎乎的圣诞老人背着鼓鼓囊囊的大口袋走下来，轻松地钻进了烟囱。他来到安静的客厅内，支起了茂盛的圣诞树，随后吹起了小喇叭。伴随着轻盈的旋律，口袋中的玩具蹦蹦跳跳地走了出来。它们各司其职，齐心协力布置圣诞树。圣诞老人一面忙着向袜子里装礼物，一面和玩具们歌舞。他们欢快的歌声甚至传到了孩子们的耳朵里……
A narrator sings the opening stanzas of the classic poem while we see the house at rest. Santa lands on the roof, comes down the chimney, and opens his bag. The toys march out and decorate the tree, with the toy soldiers shooting balls from their cannon, a toy airplane stringing a garland like skywriting, and the toy firemen applying snow. A blimp delivers the star to the top. Meanwhile, Santa fills the stockings. His laughter awakens the children, who sneak out. The toys rush to their places, and Santa escapes up the chimney just in time. The closing verse is sung.
