Uncovering Rudolph's red nose with Hallett students Answering the tough questions Students in the Grade 1/2 class at Hullett Central Public School recently told The Citizen what they thought was behind the glowing Christmas mystery of Rudolph's nose.

Front Row:Everett Cherrey, Jason Rozell, Sierra Lehmann and Elizabeth Goddard -Miller (Dennyscottphoto) When it comes to Rudolph guiding Santa Claus' sled, Mrs. Taylor and Ms. Elder's Grade 1/2 Class at Hullett Central Public School think there is some kind of light bulb involved in the famous reindeer's ability to project light. "I think his nose is a light bulb. Santa helps him and gives him a new bulb every year so he can guide the sled" Everett C. "Rudolph's nose glows so Santa knows where he is going, but there's nothing special about it. It's just a normal light he wears on his nose, except it's red instead of white" Keryn D. "Rudolph's nose is a special red light and it's special because it's red. It lights up because Rudolph is a magical reindeer." Carali H. "There is a special, shiny nose that Rudolph has because it's bright red. I think it's a Christmas light that Rudolph got at the store and then plugged into the sled and then put on his nose." Clara H. "Rudolph's nose is kind of like a light bulb but it's not a normal one, it's special. Santa gives him a new bulb every year to keep it going and makes it magic so it will work." Sierra L. "A light bulb makes Rudolph the red -nosed reindeer's nose light up. He might have a light bulb holder on his nose to help keep it pointed up so Santa can see where he's going." Ryan B. "I think that Rudolph has a special light inside his nose, and it glows red because his nose is red. My hand does the same thing with a flashlight. But it couldn't be a normal light because that would run out, so it must be a lighting bug with a red lighting part." Molly B. "There is a light inside of Rudolph that comes from his heat and shines out through his nose. I don't know how he makes it because it's magic and he's magic." Leah B. "I think that Rudolph has a little sun inside his nose that glows red because there is a piece of red paper around the sun. That way the light that comes out is red and tflflitIMAt *&* Happy New Year 4s111.0.•••-••••1440mu._ AG. L.

He was born with it on his nose and it never goes away so when the moonlight hits, it glows so Santa can see where he is going." Loralei G. "There is a light in Rudolph's nose that comes out through his nose holes. It could be a `glowpod' in there. A glowpod is a bug that glows at night and it lives inside his nose." Jamal H. "Santa makes Rudolph's nose glow. He used magic to make it shine a red light. He gave Rudolph a potion to drink and that's what makes his nose glow." Carter H. "Rudolph's nose glows because, when he was born, his nose got a bubble in it and it grew into a light bulb, but not a normal light bulb, a special one that never burns out and glows all around him no matter what happens." Dylan K. "Rudolph's nose is a red light bulb that he got from Santa. Santa gave it to him as a Christmas present one year because Rudolph kept asking if he could be different than the other reindeer." Cheyenne L. "There's something red in Rudolph's nose. It's a ball that glows. He found it on the ground and when he bent down to see what it was it jumped in his nose and stayed there and now it glows." Pat M. "Rudolph's nose glows because people are nice and that makes him feel good. When he feels good, his nose glows." Elizabeth M. "Reindeer don't have noses that glow, but, before Rudolph was born, his mom ate a glass light bulb by accident and then it made the light bulb on his nose grow so that's how it glows." Sam R. "I don't know why Rudolph's nose glows. It's probably just something he has always had. It's just something he was born with and no one can get close enough to him to see it so no one knows."
