    Just showed my 4 year old, she was very quiet and a big smile crept over her face when Santa did his wink and said "I think that can be arranged" Very cute.
    Shame there isnt a way to save the video. I might video the screen later tonight and incorporate it in the Christmas home movie this year.:j

    How fantastic... After a real struggle getting my 3 year old to bed last night I chose the option where you say you child has made a special effort to go to bed.

    Her face was a real picture when she saw it.. Fingers crossed for tonight
