Disclosure: I received complementary Portable North Pole products in exchange for this review. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
I am happy to announce that Santa PNP (Portable North Pole) is back ready to spread holiday magic to children and the young-at-heart for the 6th year in a row! Since 2009, I have made the PNP a part of our holidays by bringing the magic of Santa and his village into our home through personalized video messages. However, I am completely blown away at the product offerings this year at the PNP! It is the best year I have seen yet, containing more new magical extras, including new themes, exciting scenes, and even greater personalization!
The classic PNP video is still FREE and features spectacular never-before-seen footage from Santa’s village, including hilarious elf clips, and a glimpse at Santa’s top-secret console. But for a small fee of $3.99, users can create a Premium Video that is almost 6 minutes long, featuring additional scene selections such as Communication Center, Toy Tests, and Sleigh Repairs. The price additionally includes three extra pictures for greater personalization, unlimited online views during the Christmas holidays and a bonus video on Christmas Eve. The Premium version lets families with more than one child choose between the different scenes, making it possible to customize the message differently for each child in the family. You also get to download the High Quality video to keep for a magical Christmas memento. Here is the Premium Video I created for my son this year, giving you an example of just how detailed the message really is! He was placed on the naughty/nice list, since his behavior could always be improved! The PNP offers a different video scenario for nice and naughty kids -and nice and naughty adults too, so the video results will be different depending upon what you choose.
PNP is typically for young children who still believe in Santa and the magic of Christmas, but adults can join in on the Christmas fun with customizable videos for those 18+! My hubby makes the naughty list EVERY year for one reason or another. I have a blast personalizing his video message and using the big guy in red to get my thoughts across in an amusing way!
The most popular PNP product is by far the personalized video message. In fact, PNP has generated over 80 million personalized video views worldwide since 2008! But Santa and his elves offer a whole host of other personalized products too! Check out the list below for some of the great personalized gifts available!

It’s a gift that gives back! I LOVE it!
