Santa’s Good List officially went digital this weekend, as Santa Claus unveiled a new website where children can see if they’ve been naughty or nice. For the first time ever, boys and girls from around the world will now be able to view the coveted good list via computer by visiting www.SantasGoodList.org .
“Santa’s Good List is constantly changing, so it has previously been impossible to publish it”, explained Mark Bulleit, one of two Santa Claus, Indiana residents who helped Santa launch the website. “Only now, with the power of the internet, is publishing a real-time list possible.”
The free website allows children to chat with one of Santa’s elves, who quiz them on their behavior in such areas as making their bed, brushing their teeth and doing their homework. Children are asked to promise Santa that they’ll work hard to improve any problem areas identified, and upon doing so, are recommended for Santa’s Good List.
A special email from Santa alerts children that they’ve made Santa’s Good List, and allows them to digitally flip pages to find their name on the all-important list.
“When it comes to online content for children, parents are often lucky simply to find activities that are absent of negative influences,” said Kevin Klosowski, the other elf who worked on the site for Santa. “I love the fact that SantasGoodList.org engages children in a fun activity that truly promotes positive behavior.”
Bulleit and Klosowski both reside in Santa Claus, Indiana with their families, and each has three young children of belief age. They cite their love of Christmas and their desire for safer and more wholesome childrens activities as the driving force behind their efforts to help Santa with his website.
SantasGoodList.org was unveiled as part of Santa Claus, Indiana’s 2008 Christmas Kick-Off held this past weekend. The event also featured the unveiling of the Santa Claus Post Office’s 2008 holiday pictorial postmark and an announcement of the grand marshal for the town’s annual Christmas in Santa Claus Festival Parade to be held on December 13th of this year.
