Santa Still Needs Help Naming the Sleigh
Santa’s sleigh is still being prepared for his Christmas flight and one of the last details that gets decided upon is what to name Santa’s sleigh. Santa likes to give his sleigh a name before he takes off every Christmas and he wants your help in deciding what to call it. Remember, Santa prefers that […]
Wrapping Department Calls for Help
Elf Wally says he just can’t do it. The workshop is working at such a high rate of speed that the Wrapping Department cannot keep up. And he’s asking for help. This is not an uncommon thing. The Wrapping Department is hard pressed every year to get things done. As you all know, some times […]
Tracking Center Declares Breaking News Soon
The Tracking Center over at North Pole Command has indicated that there will soon be breaking news to report. I don’t have any details yet but perhaps this will explain the mystery of all the missing reindeer. And the missing Elf Victor. And the missing Elf Quinton. I can’t wait to find out what those […]
New Storm Bearing Down on the North Pole
The North Pole Weather Center has issued a winter storm warning for later today through Christmas morning. “It looks like a classic Christmas blizzard,” Elf Billy said. “It will make things hard to watch when Santa launches but it won’t stop or slow him down at all.” The bigger question at this hour is what […]
Where are Santa’s Reindeer?
I went to go see Elf Victor a while ago to discuss his plans for Santa’s reindeer before launch. Reindeer, as you know, are very skittish animals. That means they are very nervous. Elf Victor usually follows a very strict plan for preparing them for Santa’s flight. But I noticed that not only was Elf […]
Wrapping Department Reports Huge Backlog
The Wrapping Department at the North Pole is a huge mess at this hour. We kind of knew it would be. “It is hard not to feel worried,” Elf Wally said. “We got such a late start due to how things unfolded this year. We will go as fast as we can!” I asked Santa […]

We just received word from Santa’s Tracking Center — the maps are up, the command center is staffed and the countdown is on to Santa’s Launch. Between now and when Santa launches the tracking center will begin setting up reporting stations around the world. The job of these stations is to provide local weather updates, […]
Santa Declares the Show Must Go On!
Santa is doing his best to keep things organized at the North Pole. With just hours now until Santa launches folks here are very worried about Santa being able to deliver. Santa’s Workshop is still behind, Santa’s mail hasn’t moved in days and the Wrapping Department is almost two weeks behind now. I’ve never seen […]
Worries Mount as the North Pole is Running Out of Time
The bad weather at the North Pole has abated. The power is back on in all areas and many are out assessing the damage to the area and the condition of Operation Merry Christmas. The news has many people worried. Over at Santa’s Stables Elf Victor is struggling to get the reindeer some exercise. “The […]
North Pole Weather Holds Back Sleigh Prep
Snow is piling up to record amounts at the North Pole. Drifts in some places have so far exceeded 20 feet. Elf Billy in the North Pole Weather Center says the wind has been a bigger problem than the snow. He said only about 28 inches have actually fallen here since the storm began. The […]

There are thousands of them. Kids are asking the funniest things this year: how do I become an […]
