Det er natten før jul, de små er for længst puttet – sover de mon? - og mor og far kan omsider lægge sig til at sove. Men aldrig så snart har de lagt sig, før der høres lyd af hove. Far står op og ser, at det er julemanden i sin rensdyrtrukne kane. Han dumper ned gennem skorstenen og lægger godter i børnenes sokker og forsvinder lydløst samme vej, som han kom. Han råber Glædelig jul, og far kan trygt vende tilbage til sin varme dyne.
