Interview with SANTA CLAUS


Let’s get to know  Santa Claus in person!

“Santa, Christmas has just passed, but here in the Kingdom, the magic never seems to end. How do you live the ‘after Christmas’ period?”

Santa Claus: Ah, what a wonderful question! You know, Christmas never truly ends. It’s a bit like Lucy, a star: even when the sky seems dark, her light keeps on traveling. Here in the Kingdom, we live every day as if it were Christmas. That doesn’t mean gifts and decorated trees all year long, but carrying in our hearts the true spirit of Christmas: kindness, generosity, and the joy of being together. January, for example, is the time when we pause to reflect, to remember the smiles, the dreams that came true, and start building the Christmas to come. It’s a time of sowing, waiting for the magic to blossom again.

“The Kingdom of Santa Claus has become much more than a place: it’s a world of stories, characters, and traditions. What is the secret to keeping this magic alive all year round?”

Santa Claus: The secret is in the word itself: Kingdom. A kingdom is not made just of walls or borders, but of people, dreams, and stories that keep it alive. Every inhabitant here, from Lucy to Pretty, from Rudy to Buddy, has a special role in creating that spark that lights up hearts.
And then there are our adventures! Through books, games, music, and our shows, we can bring the Kingdom’s magic everywhere. That way, Christmas doesn’t become just a memory, but a faithful companion on our journey.

“Speaking of stories, the Kingdom has just lived through an incredible year with new projects and initiatives. What can we expect in the future?” 

Santa Claus: Oh, the future is bright, I can assure you! There are so many new adventures on the way: new stories to tell, new friends to discover, and projects to help this beloved world of ours grow. And it’s not just about creating magical content, but about inspiring those who follow us. Every book, show, or song that is born here in the Kingdom carries a message: we are all part of the magic. This year, we want this philosophy to reach even farther, to embrace more and more people, young and old alike.

“For those who look at you with eyes full of hope, what would you say about Christmas and how to wait for it all year long?”

Santa Claus: Waiting for Christmas doesn’t mean counting down the days, but living them to the fullest. Every day is an opportunity to bring a bit of that Christmas light into the world. Maybe with a kind gesture, a word of comfort, or simply by sharing a smile. Christmas is inside us, always. And when December arrives, that light bursts into its full beauty. It’s a bit like a Christmas tree: you prepare it with care, decorate it day by day, and in the end, it shines bright. Our task is to keep that light alive, all year long.

“Santa, we know in the Kingdom you are never alone: you are surrounded by extraordinary friends who enrich your adventures and the magic. Among Lucy, Pretty, Buddy, and the others, what is the secret to keeping this big ‘family’ always united?”

Santa Claus: Ah, my team is my greatest treasure! Each one has a unique talent, a big heart, and contagious passion. The secret is simple: respect and teamwork. For example, Lucy with her magical light brightens up wishes, Pretty is fantastic at organizing and solving any problem, and Buddy… well, he reminds us to smile, even when things get complicated. We work together to make every day a bit more magical, and I think that’s what keeps us so close.

“This year we experienced the magic of ‘Lucy and the Secret of Santalloween.’ It was such a unique moment for the Kingdom and for all the fans. What struck you most about this story?”

Santa Claus: Santalloween was a revelation, a bridge between the magic of Christmas and the wonder of discovering something new. Lucy faced an important challenge, showing how even change can bring beauty. I loved seeing how the Kingdom transformed: colors, lights, and even new traditions intertwined with the old ones. Every story like this teaches us that the heart of Christmas is in the ability to welcome, to open up to new dreams and new possibilities.

“Speaking of adventures, we know that Dr. Krampy is really unique! But what can you tell us about your cousin? We know he is quite… particular.”

Santa Claus: Ah, Sibelius! He is definitely more… theatrical, let’s say. Sarcastic, but he has a hidden heart of butter (even if he’d never admit it), Sibelius has a passion for drama and shadows. He’s a complex soul, but even he, deep down, believes in the magic of Christmas. Our stories with Dr. Krampy remind us that even shadows have their place: they make the light shine brighter.

“Bon Bon, the pastry elf, is surely one of the most loved with his sweet and creative spirit. How important is his role in keeping the Christmas spirit alive every day of the year?”

Santa Claus: Bon Bon is unbeatable! Like a sweet melody that echoes all year round. His cookies, besides being delicious, have a special power: they are made with a pinch of magic and a mountain of love. Every time he bakes something, he is not just cooking, but spreading the warmth of Christmas. And it doesn’t stop at the kitchen! Bon Bon knows how to turn any moment into a chance to remind us how beautiful it is to share and smile. He is a quiet but powerful force, an example for all of us in the Kingdom.

“Santa, do you have a special message for the new year?”

Santa Claus: Of course! My message is simple, but comes from the heart: Christmas is a journey, not a destination. Look to the future with wonder, live each day with gratitude, and never forget to dream. This is a special year, not just for the Kingdom, but for each of us. Let’s build something extraordinary together. And remember: “Every day is Christmas!”

“Thank you, Santa. It is always a pleasure to hear you speak.”

Santa Claus: Thank you! And remember, WE LOVE YOU ALL SO MUCH!

 

Every day is Christmas!
