Tom Smith Christmas Crackers | Family Traditional

Each cracker is 12½ inches long and there are 12 crackers in a box - 6 each of 2 designs.

Each Cracker contains a special Christmas Toy

For those not familiar with Crackers, they contain a paper crown (folded tissue party hat), a motto (British joke or riddle), the cracker-snap, and a small gift or novelty item.

A cracker is a small cardboard tube covered in a brightly colored twist of paper. When the cracker is pulled by two people, each holding one end of the twisted paper covered tube, the friction creates a small explosive 'pop'. This 'pop' is produced by a narrow strip of chemically impregnated paper. The cracker tears apart and out of the cardboard tube tumbles a bright paper hat, a small gift, a balloon and a motto or joke.
