California Volunteers Host 'Santa Hotline'
Kids can call a special phone number to talk to Santa, Mrs. Claus, elves, Frosty the Snowman and others.
Did you miss Breakfast With Santa? Just because Santa has headed back to the North Pole doesn't mean that our kids can't talk to him!
"Santa's Hotline" will be available on Wednesday and Thursday.
