A personal video from Father Christmas

I can't take credit for this as another user posted it and it is also on HDUK, but it is so fantastic that i wanted to share it with as many people as possible, you fill in some details of your child and then you get an excellent personalised video using their name, what they want etc. It is so well done and it's just fab!

I did it for my DS and i cried!:o (i'm a big girls blouse!) But his face was a picture. Enjoy

  • I did this for my son and daughter and the look of worry on their faces when he went to look for their name in the naughty or nice book was priceless. Thanks for posting it! :D

    I did this the other day for my 4 year old, I ticked the naughty box because he had been a little devil for a couple of days. He was really shocked and has behaved very well since!

    I just had a go for my 22 year old DD - it's fab. I just would have liked to be able to choose to send it from 'parents' rather than having to choose mum or dad. Still great tho. Might even try to make a more 'generic' option for my class at school!

    If my typing is pants or I seem partcuarly blunt, please excuse me, it physically hurts to type. :wall: If I seem a bit random and don't make a lot of sense, it may have something to do with the voice recognition software that I'm using!
  • Aw this is brilliant Ive just done one for my youngest, its a good idea to do the naughty version to make them behave! Cant believe he said 'you have been sooooo good' it was like talking about a different child ha!!!

    my friend showed me this link on another site.

    it is fantastic. hubby and i did them for the kids last night. watched them back and it brought a tear to our eye's. I gonna show them in a couple of day's as they sent letters to santa so say this is santas reply to their letter.

    shame tho they say my son's name in it, but not my daugthers. i think it perhaps maybe because santa doesn't know how to say it as it not a common name. but never mind.

    I had a problem with the names too, 3 of my children have biblical names and it seems they are pronounced differently everywhere! Luckily my kids just thought it was funny.
