Santa calls about the wish list

What Santa does

Santa is in the wish library with the giant Wish Book. He found your child's page, but the ink is smudged.

At midnight the elves take the book to the workshop. A smudged page means a mix-up. Only your child can say what it should say.

He asks what they wish for most, and why. Then one wish for somebody else: a friend, a grandparent.

He rewrites the page out loud, in your child's words, and puts the wish for somebody else in gold ink. The elves gasp.

Santa never says what will be under the tree. That is the rule, and he tells your child so.

What you fill in beforehand

Someone your child could wish something for: a grandparent who is always cold, a friend who moved away. Santa steers the gold-ink wish there.

Parents ask

Will Santa promise a present?
No. Santa is instructed never to promise a specific gift. He says the elves are busy and that the surprise is the magic.
My child wants something we cannot give. What then?
Tell Santa in the note. He will listen warmly and move the story to the wish for somebody else.
Can I hear the wishes afterwards?
You sit next to your child, so you hear everything live. We do not record the call.
