Prepping your “Santa” brain

November 8, 2016 By Pippa

We’ve got some further continued Santa preparation for you …

It’s only the start of November, but we think it’s best that Santa’s helpers take a moment to just prep your mind for the start of the questions that are going to be coming your way about Santa SOON (if not already like me!). Hopefully you are lucky and you get asked the “soft” questions first!

Here’s the first few questions, the usual suspects, to at least give your mind some content! We will be posting more on this subject as the season kicks on. We will even address the really tricky question … is Santa real, and we have a super answer for you!

Four questions, that come around every year:

We don’t have a chimney so how will Santa get in to our house?

Don’t worry Santa has worked out how to get into most houses, it’s his job to deliver all the presents. He can use his magic! Optional extra: perhaps we could leave a key out of him?

How does Santa deliver all the presents to everyone in ONE night?

Well luckily for Santa he is magic, because it is a big job. He prepares all year for this. Optional extra: look at one of these two great sites to track Santa (and to helpful you explain best!). https://santatracker.google.com OR http://www.noradsanta.org

How do the reindeer fly?

They are magical reindeer … of course (I have no idea how they fly!). Santa trains them all year to be in their best and fastest form for Christmas.

How do you know which is the real Santa when you see so many in the shopping malls and shops?

Santa has a team of helpers who help him when he gets really busy, of course. Sometimes it will be the real Santa, and sometimes it will be one of his helpers

For every other question you can usually try one of these approaches:

As one of my cleverest friends always tells me about tricky situations with people on all sorts of topics … reverse the question, and get them to give you their answer first … so it would go something like this “what do YOU think darling?”

OR … it’s magic darling

And if all else fails … “you have to believe to receive darling”

Too early for Christmas … Santa letters, Santa stockings and even Santa sacks???

October 9, 2015 By Pippa

It’s October, and I’m wondering if it’s too early to mention Christmas … or not?

Are you eagerly awaiting the time when its acceptable to hang the Santa stockings? Have you secretly been googling Santa sacks, Santa letters and cool new ideas for wrapping presents this year? Or NOT (definitely not)?!

Are you one of the organised and Christmas enthusiasts like 30% of the UK population who start shopping September (the official term for such people and organisations who embrace Christmas at this stage is the ‘Christmas Creep/ers‘) OR are you one of the more ‘wait until December’ people (which it seems are dwindling in numbers these days)?

Originally, way back in the day, the Christmas season was only for 12 days – the days that stretched from Christmas Day itself to January 6th, but the economic opportunities even as far back as the early 1900’s saw this season stretch out substantially to be more in line with the Christian Advent Season which started at the beginning of December. And it seems we have evolved from this even further, no matter where you are in the world … with Christmas starting most acceptably at the end of October.

I’m pretty happy and comfortable about that – but thats because I love it!

Today we have officially opened the Love From Santa doors today for Christmas 2015 – with 11 wonderful weeks of Christmas anticipation, wonderful, excitement and magical fun ahead of us. Checkout our beautiful range of Santa stockings and Santa sacks + our really gorgeous and cleverly written Santa Letters.

I think I have officially put Christmas on your radar now, if it still feels a little uncomfortable thats OK, we will be here waiting when you are ready.
