If want to send a personal message from the jolly old Santa, check out Portable North Pole (PNP). This service lets you create a free personal video from Santa and send it to your favorite people, whether they’ve been naughty or nice!
Santa’s video will include photos of you and your loved one, as well as a photo of their most desired gift. He will mention the person by name and add other personal touches to the video. The videos are festive and fun, sure to bring a smile to many faces.
This short video from PNP gives you a sneak preview of this year’s Santa video:
This year marks the 10th Christmas season that PNP has helped people create personal Santa videos. During that time, PNP users have created over 160 million personal Santa videos.
How to Create a PNP Santa Video
You can create a Santa video by going to the video page on the PNP website or by using the free PNP app:
You get a choice of different personal videos, for kids or adults. Choose the one you want, then answer questions about the person you’re sending it to, such as their name, whether they’ve been naughty or nice, and what they like to do.
PNP lets you check the pronunciation of the name of the person and correct Santa if he pronounces it wrong.
You can also add photos from your computer or from Facebook to make the video more personal. Include photos of yourself, the person you’re sending the video to, and the gift they want to get.

When you’re satisfied with your choices, click the “Create Video” button and PNP will get busy working its magic to create your personal video.
Hit the “Create New Video” button if you want to make more Santa videos. You can find your Santa videos under the My Creations tab in the menu.
Sharing Is Caring
After you’ve created your PNP video, you can share it with others using email, Twitter or Facebook.

Feel free to check out my PNP Santa video at the PNP website: Carolyn’s Portable North Pole Santa video.
Premium Santa Videos
Some of the video choices are free, others are premium and cost money. Premium videos are longer, with more options for personalization.
Users can purchase individual premium Santa videos or get a Magic Pass. With a Magic Pass, you can make unlimited premium videos to share with others. A Magic Pass also lets you download HD video files to share with others, or post on YouTube.
I suggest you try the free videos first as they may be all you need to send a fun greeting from Santa. If you find you’d like more, you can check out the premium options.
Note the PNP says that it donates 5% of its web purchases to children’s hospitals around the world. Find out more at the PNP Children’s Hospital Donation page.

Cute idea, Carolyn. Can’t wait to try one for my personal grinch spouse. Maybe it will get him into the Holiday spirit!
Hi Ann, Lol, that is a great idea! I think you’ll enjoy all of the different options to customize his video. I hope you and he get a good giggle from the video!
