PNP is now in its 8th year and I've been using it for the last 7! Every year the videos get better and better with new scenarios year on year. A few years ago you'd have never caught me spending money on a message from Santa but this is worth every penny when you see the look on your child's face.. there is a free version as well.
I tried out the Gold Pass which was great value as it meant I could create video's for both boys before Christmas and Christmas Eve videos, I am also planning on ordering them a phone call (or 2).
This package uses the premium video and it's so simple. You answer a few basic questions; child's name, date of birth, gender and where they live. You are also asked to upload a photo of your child.
Now you can start with the personalisation element.
Scenario
Choose which of the scenarios you would like Santa to appear in, I love the 2 new ones for this year Post Office and Elf House.
Verdict
There are 3 verdicts to choose from; naughty, naughty/ nice or nice. I always opt for the middle one (Santa isn't mean he simply tells them to try harder and that he believes they can make the nice list). This works really well because I then log in again a few days before Christmas and make them a nice one.
Child's Daily Life
Do they go to school? nursery? stay at home with mum/ dad?
Effort asked of the child
What have they been trying hard to do? Again another huge drop down including: pee in the toilet? be nice to their sister? put away toys? help at home?
Gift
You can choose from a vast drop down list of gift categories such as video game, makeup, dolls or a musical instrument that the child has asked for.
You can also upload a picture of the present.
Child's Friends/ Relatives
You can pick 4 names of people your child knows to appear on books on the shelf next to theirs.
Photos
Choose photos of the child doing something such as a trip, holiday, special occasion. Or if you take part in Elf on the Shelf this is now an option too.
The last one you are asked to upload is of the child's home (I find Google Street View very handy for this)
There are loads of package options available on the Portable North Pole ranging from free to an unlimited gold pass to suit every family and budget.
Normal Video - Free
This option has only 1 storyline, can be personalised in 8 ways (such as the child's name, location and daily activities) and is up to 3 minutes long.
These videos can be watched on line and downloaded until the end of June 2016 so you can save them in case your child asks to watch it in August (as mine did this year)*.
In the free video Santa does not deliver his naughty/ nice verdict.
*additional cost applies
Grown-ups video - Free
Perfect for the young at heart! Reach out to loved ones or spread merriment through the office with personalised messages from Santa.
This is the same as the children's video but aimed at adults. The video is 2 minutes in length but does deliver a verdict at the end.

The boys Christmas Elf will be bringing their videos at the weekend on a memory stick and I can't wait to see their reaction. I only have a couple of years left of Ben believing and not much longer for Noah. This is a tradition I'll be really sad to have to finish.
Whilst I could share Ben or Noah's video with you that would give too much away, instead please enjoy this one.
