Each Nordic country claims Santa's dwelling to be within their territory. Norway maintains he lives in Droebak In Denmark, he's reputed to reside in Greenland (near Uummannaq ). In Sweden, the town of Mora has a theme park named Tomteland The national postal terminal in Tomteboda in Stockholm receives children's letters for Santa. In Finland, Korvatunturi and two theme parks, Santa Claus Village and Santa Park are located near department stores Rovaniemi Parades, and shopping malls


Images of Santa Claus were further popularized through Haddon Sundblom 's delineation of him for The Coca-Cola Company 's Christmas advertisements in the 1930s. 6 30 The prevalence of the picture spawned urban legends that Santa Claus was devised by The Coca-Cola Company or that Santa wears red and white since they're the colors used to market the Coca Cola brand. 31 Historically, Coca Cola was not the first soft drink business to utilize the modern picture of Santa Claus in its promotion-- White Rock Beverages had already used a red and white Santa to sell mineral water in 1915 and then in ads for its ginger ale in 1923.

In other Latin American nations along with Mexico, besides using the email, sometimes children wrap their letters to a small helium balloon, discharging them into the air they are magically received by Santa. 68 Coke denies asserts it bottled familiar Jim Auchmutey Santa image,, Rocky Mountain News, 10 December 2007.

Get your child excited about Santa before the holiday season begins, so that she already feels like she knows him. Tell stories concerning the jolly guy who brings presents to girls and boys around the globe or share memories of what Santa meant as a child to you. Watch age-appropriate movies that show Santa in a positive light, such as the first Santa Claus Is Coming to Town , The Santa Clause , or Miracle on 34th Street Read books such as 'Twas the Night Before Christmas or The Berenstain Bears Meet Santa Bear And, obviously, it can not harm to propose that your child write a "wish list" that you can send off to the North Pole.
