- Cut curling ribbon into lengths of about 10 inches.

The Grinchy Candy Cane Poem
Making your own tags? Add this little poem and tie one to each candy cane.
When the Grinch discovered
There was no way,
To Keep Christmas from coming
On Christmas day,
He devised a new plan…
Though not quite as mean.
He licked all the candy canes,
‘Til he turned them all green.
