Remember, Giving of yourself is Joyous Santa Guaranteed!<p> 1. Invite someone to your house for thanksgiving that doesn't have a place to go. <p> 2. Collect some food and bring to your local resource center.<p> 3. Be a Food runner (with your parents) in your area for The North Pole Mission.

As you know it is not about the gifts and stuff we get that has us all so excited. It is the time of year we open our hearts up to everyone. That feels good. <p> Thanksgiving is a perfect start to this season. It is a time to eat (which I love) and it is time to be thankful for all we have (which I love even more). We have a lot to be thankful for. If you are reading this, you have more than most of the world. Clothes on your back, a house to sleep in, running water, and so on. Most of us live better now than the Kings and Queens did centuries ago. (remember, I was there) Wow, what a wonderful life we live. I am so greatful for all that Mrs. Claus and I have. And I am greatful for the love we can share at Christmas. <p> So this Thanksgiving. Let's all start the Christmas season out with thanks for just where we are and what we have today. <p> I look forward to eating some of Mrs Claus's wonderful food.

I hit some tough cross winds over the Himalayas and took a brief detour. Thanks to some helpful sherpas, I found my way back to my charted course. The pageantry, music, and decorations around the world were just breathtaking. And there’s an amazing hush that falls over the cities, towns, and villages in the wee hours of Christmas morning. Families and friends reunite. And the fighting has stopped on battlegrounds. For just this very brief time, there is peace and goodwill around the globe. And I know it’s not because of the presents I put under the tree or the stockings filled with treats. The magic of Christmas lives in the heartfelt wishes for joy, peace, and love. I bring gifts wrapped in pretty papers and ribbons, but it’s each of you that gives far more than I could ever do. Find the love in your heart and pass it on. Merry Christmas to all! May all your days be as joyous as this one! !<p> <p> P.S. - Merry Christmas! and Happy Birthday Jesus. Remember to post your holiday pictures in our photo gallery.

It’s time to load up my sleigh with all of the gifts I’ll be delivering tonight. I can’t begin to tell you the excitement here. The Quality Control Elves are doing a final check of last-minute requests and making sure all lists have been checked twice. We don’t want to miss anyone on this important journey. Meanwhile, the kitchen crew is preparing my picnic. Yes, even though I get lots of milk and cookies, they always pack sandwiches, fruit, and plenty of hot chocolate (made my favorite way: a pinch of cinnamon, a touch of vanilla, extra marshmallows, and a candy cane to stir it with). Plus, I carry lots of carrots for my hard-working reindeer team.

As much as I welcome the many types of cookies that wait for me at the homes I visit, I also like the variety of foods that people serve for their Christmas Eve celebrations. The Slovaks celebrate with a special feast known as “Stedry Vecer”. The Japanese people, who only began celebrating Christmas less than a century ago, enjoy strawberry shortcake, topped with a plastic fir tree, while they wait for a visit from “Uncle Chimney”. In the southern hemisphere, where the weather is warm at Christmas, their bountiful feast is filled with fruits and veggies from the recent summer harvest. The Danish menu on Christmas Eve includes almond porridge, stuffed duck, pork, red cabbage, and candied potatoes. The Armenians follow the menu of Mary’s very meager meal: fried fish and spinach. And the French, who are known for their incredible food, enjoy a sumptuous feast after midnight that is finished with the traditional Buche de Noel, a very sweet cake. What will YOU be dining on this Christmas Eve? <p> P.S. - I'd love to hear and see pictures about your Christmas eve celebrations.

Yes, it’s MY job to grant wishes and bring gifts to my “Nice List” friends on Christmas Eve. But Christmas is a Christian holiday, celebrating the birth of Jesus. All around the world, this holiday brings to light the love and joy that lives in the hearts of people from many faiths. I see kindness, patience, and generosity during this season. It seems that the reminder of the goodness in people is especially powerful. So, I wonder, what would it take to keep Christmas in your heart all year ‘round? And why does it come easily in December and then forgotten in January? When you start thinking about your New Year’s resolutions, why not resolve to live with the spirit of Christmas for more than a few weeks a month. <p> P.S. - I'd love to hear about your plans for keeping the Christmas spirit all year long? <p> P.P.S. - Are you my helper?

She decided that I should have gifts under my own tree after such a busy night delivering to everyone else around the world. Well, Amanda, I must say that I am touched by your thoughtfulness, which is why you are still on my “Nice” list! And I can also tell you that I truly enjoy giving. It is not my job to deliver gifts on Christmas Eve, but it’s my pleasure! On Christmas morning, after I catch a quick nap after my long travels, Mrs. Claus and I join the elves around our great, big family Christmas tree and, I assure you, there are plenty of gifts for Santa there! I particularly enjoy the boxes of sweet treats and the warm socks that Mrs. Claus knits for me every year. Amanda, if you really want to know what I want for Christmas, it’s quite simple: I want everyone to give as much as they get, to share the joy and be kind to others. That gift of selfless caring is even better than my treasured chocolates and handknit socks (but don’t tell Mrs. Claus!). <p> P.S. - The Big Birthday Party is coming soon!

It’s sad, but the time comes when youngsters hear from their friends, their siblings, or even shows on television that Santa Claus doesn’t exist. I know when it’s happening, because I see names dissolve from my list as excited believers become disappointed non-believers. Please let your child know that Santa exists inside of everyone who welcomes the spirit of this season of love, joy, and giving. And I would recommend reading them The Polar Express, a wonderful holiday story by Chris Van Allsburg. This heartwarming tale of a boy’s journey to the North Pole is one of my all-time favorites and really captures the magic of Christmas. Read it with children or just re-read it yourself every year to remind yourself about the power of belief! <p> Love,<br> Santa <p> P.S. - The Big Birthday Party is coming soon!

And lots of these children look at me like I’m a scary alien! At the least, I have a child on my lap who can’t utter a single wish. At worst, there are lots of tears and panic that make everyone unhappy. I know that climbing up on the lap of a stranger in a bright red suit sitting up on a chair that looks like a throne can seem like pretty scary thing to do. If you’re one of those adults planning to introduce a child to me (Santa) this year, let me suggest that you talk to the youngster beforehand. Show them some photos of me and talk to them about what to expect. They should know that it’s okay for them to sit on this particular stranger’s lap, because mom or dad is right there with them. Ask them in advance if they are comfortable with the idea. Let them watch the other children taking their turns sitting on my lap. And, PLEASE, don’t ever force them to sit on my lap. Bring them close enough to let me say “ho ho ho” and wait ‘til next year! <p> I would love to see your moments with me. Please post your Santa pictures in my <a href="http://thenorthpole.com/community/photos">photo gallery.</a><br> I will view them all and comment. <p> Love, Santa <p> P.S. - Are you my helper?

This is like modern-day caroling! So why not channel your holiday spirit and the joy of music and organize a caroling group? Take your friends, family, neighbors, and anyone who wants to sing. Wander through your town, visit an elderly community, serenade the patients in the hospital. Make a party out of it. Start a family tradition. After an afternoon or evening spent singing carols, you’ll not only spread the spirit of the season to your listeners, but you’ll give yourself a hearty helping of “feel good” — something you can never get enough of! <p> Giving of yourself (voice included) is joyous Santa guaranteed!<p> Love,<br> Santa<p> P.S. - Are you my helper?

Since then, I’ve been getting lots of requests for The North Pole recipe. Betty Cricket, our Chief Cookie Elf, shared her recipe — which makes 1,000 cookies. I did a little math (yes, math does come in handy) to give you a more reasonable recipe. <p> <u>Ingredients:</U> <br> ½ cup shortening <br> ½ cup butter or margarine, softened <br> 1 ½ cups white sugar <br> 2 eggs <br> 2 ¾ cups all-purpose flour <br> 1 teaspoon baking soda <br> 2 teaspoons cream of tartar <br> ½ teaspoon salt <br> 2 tablespoons white sugar <br> 3 teaspoons ground cinnamon <p> Cream together the shortening, butter/margarine, and 1½ cups of sugar. Blend in the eggs. In a separate bowl mix together the flour, baking soda, cream of tartar, and salt. Stir these dry ingredients into the creamed mixture. Refrigerate dough for at least two hours. Preheat oven to 375°F (190° C). In a separate bowl, stir together the 2 tablespoons of sugar and 3 teaspoons of cinnamon. Roll the dough into balls approximately 1½ inches in diameter. Roll each one in the cinnamon-sugar mixture and place 2 inches apart on an ungreased cookie sheet. Bake for 8-10 minutes until the edges are slightly golden brown. Remove and let cool on a wire rack. <br> <br>Makes about 3 dozen cookies. <p> Giving of yourself (cookies included) is joyous Santa guaranteed!<p> Love,<br> Santa<p> P.S. - Are you my helper?

His shiny, red nose helped me deliver my Christmas gifts when the thick fog one Christmas Eve made it impossible to see where I was going! Back in 1939, an advertising copywriter in Chicago named Robert May first told the story to the world. His version differs a bit from the popular one, where Rudolph grew up here on the North Pole and was teased by the other reindeer. In fact, Rudolph grew up in a reindeer village far from here, and was accepted and loved by his family. It was my luck to see his bright nose that foggy Christmas Eve when I brought presents to his home. If you want to share the real story of Rudolph with children this year, look for a copy of the book by Robert L. May. <p> <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0448436426?ie=UTF8&tag=thenorthpole-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=0448436426" target="_blank">Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer </a><img src="http://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=thenorthpole-20&l=as2&o=1&a=0448436426" width="1" height="1" border="0" alt="" /><p> Giving of yourself is joyous Santa guaranteed!<p> Love,<br> Santa<p> P.S. - Are you my helper?

We are always guaranteed of this winter wonderland here at the North Pole every Christmas … and just about every day of the year! But this year, I’m asking everyone to turn their thoughts to a “greener” holiday. Did you know that in the United States alone, the trash just from wrapping paper and shopping bags totals four million tons?? And the garbage thrown away increases 25 percent between Thanksgiving and Christmas! Everyone loves the beautiful packages on Christmas Day — that’s part of the joy. But here’s a thought: When you go Christmas shopping, take along leftover bags or your own canvas tote and put your purchases in there, rather than getting a bag at every store. Then, think about buying recyclable gift wrap, or using the colorful comics from the Sunday newspaper. Then you can put a note on the card that says, “Your gift also includes recyclable wrapping. Please be sure to recycle!” <p> Reduce, Reuse, Recycle this Christmas.<p> Love,<br> Santa<p> P.S. - Are you my helper?
