As the holidays draw near, we still don't know exactly what Christmas is going to like look this year.

But Santa Claus hasn't given up hope, and Discover Moose Jaw got a chance to talk with the jolly old elf himself.

He's got a special message for all the kids out there.

"I'm still around! COVID isn't going to stop Santa from visiting all you kids at Christmastime. I'm going to be making some virtual calls on Zoom or Facetime or Messenger, whatever works for you. So you can have a call from Santa in your own home!"

It's a busy time of the year for Santa, but he's making sure to take some time off to give a personal call to anyone. He'll call you at home, or at a party, or at your daycare. 

"It's so individual and personal, just you and Santa. It's not like at the Mall where it's so busy. So you can visit and ask Santa questions and check and see whether he got your letters. I always love talking with kids!"

Saint Nick is already busy making calls so be sure to sign up for your personal call soon. Just head over to Santa's Facebook page, or email santasteve2020@gmail.com to book your time.
