There are several popular elves at the North Pole but the one who gets more mail than any other elf (besides Santa) is Elf Ed Zachary. We haven’t talked a lot about Elf Ed this year. But he is always getting letters, answering questions and writing newspaper articles for the North Pole Gazette. Elf Ed […]
From Victoria in the USA comes this great question: How do you deal with non-believers? This is a really good question because it is a problem even elves have. In fact, I answer questions for elves too and this is the most common question they have. They just cannot STAND to hear someone say that […]
Susan in Richmond in the USA asks a question on the minds of a lot of kids these days: Do you have a spy to watch me all the time? In fact, we get a lot of questions about Santa “spying”. It comes from the song “Santa Claus is Coming to Town” and the words […]
This question comes from many kids, but most recently from Kathryn in Lebanon: What if Santa’s sleigh cannot be fixed? As you know from following here and at TrackingSanta.net, Santa has had a tough go with this year’s sleigh. It seems like he has had trouble with it since early November. One kid — Josh, […]
Hi ho! Merry Christmas! As we try to get through another snowy Saturday here at the North Pole I thought I would spend some time today answering some of the most common questions coming into the North Pole this week. Our first question comes from Hannah in France, who wants to know: How long does […]
While the North Pole grapples with falling behind in the workshop and losing power now is a good time to remind you that Santa tracking on Christmas Eve is coming up. This is a family tradition that goes back decades and one you’re really going to enjoy this year. Santa encourages you to use a […]
The weather has gone from bad to worse. We were dealing with lots of heavy snow, which we’re used to, but now the high winds that are howling outside my window have knocked out power to just about everything here at the North Pole. We’re on generators now until they can get it fixed. “We […]
Mail is pouring into the North Pole in record amounts and Elf Hugo is getting concerned that not everything can reach Santa before Christmas. “Sending a letter now could be a real problem,” Elf Hugo said. “Santa prefers a letter on paper, written in a child’s own hand, even if it is in crayon. But […]
Given the concerns in Santa’s workshop and the fact that Christmas is just a week away the Elf Choir has had to once again cancel their Christmas concert, which was scheduled to take place on Friday night. “We’re thinking that maybe next year we should record a concert,” Elf Beverly, the new Elf Choir director […]
I bumped into Elf Bernard late last night in the North Pole cafeteria. He looked really worried. Santa’s workshop is more behind this week than it was last week. There are many problems. The glue shortage got resolved but then he discovered that the new glue wasn’t working on different things. It could close a […]
A nasty winter storm has descended on the North Pole, slowing progress in several departments working on Operation Merry Christmas. Over at Santa’s Stables Elf Victor was planning on taking the one-year-old reindeer out for their first flying class of the season. One-year-olds are too young to fly for Santa on Christmas Eve but many […]
Greetings! There is a belief that Santa keeps a list of kids who are naughty and nice. A lot of people believe that and from looking over the mail we get here a lot of kids especially are worried that Santa might think they are naughty. To be honest, I’ve never seen a naughty list. […]
