Why add a Santa conversation to kids' activities
No camera is ever required. Santa cannot see participants, so guests never appear on video.
Runs in a normal web browser on a laptop, tablet or large display — nothing to install.
Available 24/7/365 for seasonal events and useful year-round conversations.
Text Chat works in any language, Voice Call supports 15 languages, and Live Video offers 20 languages.
An adult starts and supervises every session, and each session lasts up to 5 minutes.
