Christmas
is almost here, which means it's time for kids to start the ritual of writing
to Santa. But instead of reaching for paper and pencil, how about calling or
texting Santa?
- How To Call Santa
FreeConferenceCall.com is hosting a Santa Hotline that you
can access anytime, 24/7, until Christmas Day. All you have to do is call
605-313-0691, and your kids will hear a special voice recording from Santa.
Spanish-speaking families can dial 605-313-4001 to speak with Santa in Spanish.
Then, kids
can leave a message for Santa detailing
their Christmas wishes. If you call from your mobile phone, you will receive a
text back from Santa letting you know he received your message and wishing your
family a merry holiday.
- How To Text Santa
Have your
kids send Santa a text message with their Christmas list. All you have to do is
text 833-798-0109 to access this free Santa text from SimpleTexting. They can even share a photo. You
will receive an auto-response from Santa so your kids will know that he
received the message and is working hard to make their holiday wishes come
true.
- Email Santa
If you're
looking for a safe way to have your kids
email Santa, use the tried and true EmailSanta.com program. This is a great way
to contact with Santa because it will teach kids not to give out personal
information online (like their address, email, or phone number). Instead, they will
fill out a holiday letter online and then choose from receiving a letter back
from Santa immediately or watching a video of him live as he receives letters.
- FaceTime Santa
If you have
an iPhone, you can FaceTime Santa with free apps like Video Call
Santa. The video is
prerecorded, but younger kids won't be able to tell, so this is a really fun
way to bring Santa to life with the power of technology.
