Video Transcript

"On behalf of Expert Village I'm Santa Claus. Actually I'm Pat Louis and today I'm going to teach you to become a professional Santa Claus. There are a lot of things you can do when you're with children and one of the things of course they love is and one good way to quiet them down. When they are all kind of asking you questions and telling you what they want for Christmas right away before you actually sit in the chair that the people provided. There is a lot of things that you can do; one of which is to tell stories. There are several stories you can use, there are a number of books that have the Night Before Christmas, you can settle down and actually flip the pages and read the story and be very animated with it. You can also make up stories, you can talk about Rudolph and everybody knows the story about how Rudolph got to lead the sleigh for Santa. You can elaborate on that just kind of get them captivated and get them tuned in. That is usually just prior to when you give out the gifts and if you're in a private home they will provide those and that is usually get them together to get ready for that part."
