A video message from Father Christmas

Made for your child: their name, their friends and their year. Hear him say the name first, then pay £7.

Every word is about them

You tell him about your child. He writes to them, then says it out loud: by name, with their friends, and with real praise for their year. He mentions their wish warmly, but never promises it.

Their name
said the way you say it at home
Their friends
up to three, each greeted by name
Their year
three good things, praised in his words
About a minute
of Father Christmas, just for them

Long before red, Britain’s Christmas wore green. John Leech drew the Ghost of Christmas Present this way for A Christmas Carol in 1843, and our Father Christmas keeps the robe.

How it works

Three steps, and only the last one takes any waiting.

Your letter to Father Christmas

Two minutes, first names only. You can hear him say their name before you pay anything.

Dear Father Christmas,

Only if it’s easy to say wrong, like “Shiv-on” for Siobhan.

Type their name, then listen to him say it.

Friends to say hello to (optional, up to three)

Three things they did well this year

He’ll mention it kindly, but he never promises presents.

For the grown-up

We send the private link here, and nothing else.

Next, you pay £7 securely with Stripe. Your video is ready about 15 minutes later.

First names only. No photos. Everything is deleted after Christmas, or 30 days after your order if that’s later. Privacy notice

Questions

How long does it take? You can hear him say the name straight away. After you pay, the full video takes about 15 minutes, and we email you the private link the moment it’s done.

Can I choose how the name is said? Yes. Fill in “How do you say their name?” and spell it the way it sounds, like Shiv-on for Siobhan, then tap “Hear him say” to listen. He says it your way in the video, and the certificate keeps the proper spelling.

What do you keep? Only what you write in the letter and your email address, to make the video and send you the link. First names only, no photos, no account. Everything is deleted after Christmas, or 30 days after your order if that’s later. Read the privacy notice.

What if it’s not right? Listen to him say the name before you pay: if it sounds wrong, change the spelling and listen again. If anything in the video isn’t right, reply to our email and we’ll sort it out.
