Santa Delivering To Children

 

How to Behave with Santa Claus

Santa knows if you've been naughty or nice, and this holiday season, the men who put on the red suit are spilling the beans about how kids, and adults, behave on Santa's lap. From kids who cry and the reasons why, to parents who think they can use their kids to prank the jolly old elf, Santa has seen it all. With the help of Santa Mike from Chicago and Santa Robert from Cincinnati, we've compiled some stories that will give you a holiday chuckle.

You Can't Get Much Past a Child - Even if you're Santa

One Santa says that he chews gum or uses breath mints, because kids are very honest about whether Santa's breath stinks. Sometimes that honesty hurts Santa's feelings. One little girl, about 5 years old, was rattling off her Christmas wish list, when she paused to ask Santa a question. 'Are you chewing gum?' she asked. Santa, taken aback by the question, admitted that yes, in fact, he was chewing gum. 'Why are you chewing gum?' she asked. Santa fessed up and admitted that he chews gum so that his breath would be nice for the children. 'OK,' she said, and went back to her list without skipping a beat.

The Girl Knows What She Wants

Santa is accustomed to kids bringing their lists with them when they visit him. But one little girl really knew what she wanted and how to get it The girl, about 6 years old and dressed in her frilliest dress, sat on Santa's lap and proceeded to read more than 20 items off of her list -- everything from Barbie's and dolls to a particular brand of baby carriage. As the little girl reached the end of her list, she turned to Santa and said, 'If you can't bring all of this, don't worry. My daddy will give it to me.' 'Do you want to give me the list?' Santa asked. 'No, I think I should keep it for my daddy,' she replied. Santa, Will and Guy all agreed.

Christmas Sandwich

It's not always toys that kids want for Christmas. Santa gets some other unusual requests One 6-year-old boy sat on Santa's lap and when it came to telling Santa what he wanted for Christmas, he said, 'A sandwich.' Santa notes that the boy didn't look underfed or that he had missed any meals, but that was all the boy said he wanted. Once the boy left Santa's lap, his mother came over to ask Santa what her son wanted. Santa told her the boy wanted a sandwich. 'You're serious?' she asked. The boy's mother said they had just eaten before going to see Santa and had no idea why he would say such a thing.

Santa Claus and Coca Cola - The Urban Myth

A popular urban myth is that back in 1928 Coca Cola invented Santa Claus. What fuels this myth is that his red coat matches perfectly the Coca Cola livery. The truth is that while early Santa Claus often wore green, Santa Claus in red was established by the 1860s, long before Coca Cola was invented.

Other Names for Santa Claus

While it is true that the name Santa Claus was an American 'invention' sometime before 1870.  The original name for the 'figure' associated with the mid-winter festival was Saint Nicholas, or St. Nick.  Other languages have variations or translations of Saint Nicolas, for example, Père Noel, Papa Noel, Babbo Natale, Papai Noel, Father Christmas, and Kris Kringle.

Santa Sacked for Smacking Boy

A Santa Claus is facing the sack from a Dutch shopping centre after he smacked a young boy for pulling his beard. Peter Hendriks hit the boy on the backside in front of dozens of shoppers in the town of Rijswijk. Defending his actions, he said: 'If I hadn't done that, he would have pulled off my beard and dozens of children would have been traumatised.'
