It's BACK! The Portable North Pole is back with their free personalised video messages from Santa and I'm ridiculously EXCITED!

With Christmas a mere 32 days away now is the time to get started on creating a video message, from Santa, for your child and THIS YEAR they have an adult option too; hurrah!

I wrote about this last year and the response was amazing; the video messages from Santa at the Portable North Pole are incredible and will absolutely enchant your child - I guarantee it!

I just showed my eldest son the promo' Portable North Pole video and it brought tears to his eyes, it's THAT magical (he's going to kill me for telling you that!).

THIS year there's an option for grown-ups too and I'm going to be getting started on a personalised video message from Santa for my husband as soon as I've finished telling you how to make one of your own.

First of all - DO NOT SEND US YOUR MESSAGES FOR SANTA! Lots of people did this last year and might have wondered where their message from Santa was; you need to go over to the Portable North Pole to do it.

Secondly, get some photos ready - video messages from Santa can include photos of your child (or wife/husband/whoever - the list of relationships is LONG, including male/female admirer!), and snaps of things you/they got up to this year.

Right, now you're ready!

Go over to the Portable North Pole and fill in all the information you're asked for, upload your pictures then just sit back and enjoy; I've been stalkiing the PNP for wEEKS now, waiting to be able to bring this to you again for 2011.

There's nothing to pay, no catches, no waiting - just unadulterated Christmas magic and sparkle. Seriously, just go and do it - you'll be very glad you did.

Happy messages from Santa!

The Night Before Christmas hamper for 'Father Christmas' is half price at Marks and Spencer including delivery.

What do you tell your children about Santa, and Christmas eve? This is a big question for me at the mo ment. My little girl is only one, so it's not such a big deal yet, but I'm guessing by next year, there'll be questions about the jolly old man with a white beard and big belly!

Do you put out cookies for Santa? A glass of milk? Oh, the lies (insert dramatic sigh here). If y ou do, and why not? It's such a lovely thing to believe in, for a time. If you do, this kit would be great for those of us who don't live in the fantasy world where we can spend our days baking gingerbread men.

The kit contains the Night Before Christmas book, a ceramic plate with Cookies for Santa written on it, as well as two gingerbread man cookies and a carrot gingerbread cookie and hot chocolate and mini marshmallows. It also contains chocolate Santas presumably for you to much on while reading the book – it seems cruel to give Santa Santa shaped chocolates to eat!

Yes, you could make this cheaper yourself, but maybe you can't, don't want to, or simply want a Christmas eve treat to make your little one happy – not bad for £12.50, including delivery.
