The Secret Santa Video Trend Parents Can't Stop Sharing
Scroll long enough on social media this December and you'll start seeing them: short clips of kids absolutely losing their minds as Santa talks directly to them in a video.
We're not talking about a generic "Ho ho ho, Merry Christmas!" clip. These are fully personalized Santa videos that use the child's real name, mention their life, and feel insanely real.
From "Cute Idea" to Full-On Trend
It started quietly. A few parents tried a personalized Santa video, recorded their kids' reactions, and posted them. The comments came flooding in:
- "Okay, I need this for my kids ASAP."
- "Crying at work watching this."
- "This is way better than the Santa letter I got as a kid."
Now, more and more parents are joining in — not just for the kid's experience, but because they love capturing and sharing that one pure, unfiltered moment.
What's Actually Happening in These Videos?
It's simple, but powerful. Santa appears on screen from his cozy North Pole setting. He says your child's name. He mentions details you provided — a recent achievement, a favorite activity, even the name of your family pet.
Kids don't know how that's possible. All they know is: Santa really knows them.
Why It Works So Well on Video
Kids live on screens. They're used to watching shows, clips, and characters. When one of those characters breaks the "fourth wall" and talks directly to them, it hits completely differently.
That's why these reaction videos are so powerful. You can literally see the belief and wonder hitting them in real time.
Parents Are Using It 3 Different Ways
- The private moment. No posting, no sharing — just a special family moment that stays in the home.
- The reaction share. Parents record the moment and send it to grandparents, friends, and family.
- The full social post. Some share the reaction publicly because it's just that good.
How to Get Your Own Personalized Santa Video
- Pick your package. One child, multiple kids, or bigger bundles.
- Choose your video length. More time = more detail and more magic.
- Fill out the details. Name, age, fun facts, and anything special you want Santa to mention.
- Get your video. Delivered digitally as an MP4, ready to play or screen-record reactions.
You don't have to share it online if you don't want to. But you'll definitely want to keep the reaction clip for yourself.
