If you have a Facebook Messenger Kids account for your children, you can now add Santa to their approved chat list!

It’s 2020 and things are way out of the norm this holiday season. It’s time we add in some fun and joy for our children and what could be more fun than chit-chatting with Santa?

The cool thing about this is Santa is YOU! You will be able to chat with your children as Santa Claus! All that you need to do is add Santa as an approved contact for your kids and you will be doing the chatting as Santa!

To kick off the conversation, parents can ask kids “What are you most thankful for this year?” or to share their favorite holiday tradition. To help continue the holiday magic, the Santa chat thread will stay open until January 6 so kids can say “thank you” and share photos of their favorite holiday memories.

It’s so simple! Here’s how to add Santa!

To add Santa to your child’s approved contact list on Facebook Messenger Kids click here.

Or you can go into your Facebook messenger app and choose your child’s profile. Then click on “Messenger Kids Controls”, then click “Controls”.

Next you will see “Santa Experience”, click that! Now click “Add Santa”.

When your kid sends a message to Santa you will not get a notification! Imagine them messaging Santa and your phone is dinging with each message they send… that’s suspicious!

So you will have to remember to go check your messages from time to time so you can keep up.

The Santa contact will be removed by Facebook automatically on January 6th, but there is an option to remove it yourself before then. This is so much fun!
