Santa’s Summer Workout Regime

Delivering presents to every child in the world in a single night is no small feat, and Santa takes his summer fitness regime extremely seriously.

From June onwards Santa can be found jogging around the North Pole building the stamina needed for the most important delivery run of the year.

The reindeer meanwhile are put through their paces with an intensive summer flying programme.

Altitude training formation flying and precision landing practice all feature heavily on Rudolph and the gang’s summer schedule.

Nobody said working for Santa was easy!

What The Elves Get Up To In Summer

The wonderful truth about the North Pole workshop is that it never actually closes — not even for a single day.

While children across the world are splashing in paddling pools and eating ice cream Santa’s elves are working flat out building testing and wrapping gifts.

Summer is actually the elves’ busiest and most important season, the Christmas Eve deadline waits for nobody and with billions of gifts to prepare every single day counts.

Does Santa Ever Take A Holiday?

This is the question every child wants answered, and the honest truth is that Santa does allow himself one very well deserved week off every August.

Destination of choice? Reliable sources suggest Father Christmas has a particular fondness for a quiet seaside cottage somewhere on the Scottish coast, far away from the North Pole and completely off the radar.
