Any parent knows that the magic of Christmas lies in Santa – be that visiting him, or even better, receiving a personalised video message from him to treasure! Many of my Mummy friends last year posted videos their little ones had received from Santa at the PNP – Portable North Pole. I was considering one for little man last year but he really had no idea what was going on – this year he is recognising Santa so I thought it’d be the start of a great tradition.

But at the top of a child’s list, I’m sure much of the time is a request for a character toy. Though I’m the one in this house that does the Christmas shopping for little man as hubby has no idea about that either! If you don’t have a list and you’re not as organised as me (well this year anyway!), …
