Sitting at his cozy desk, Santa diligently answers the countless letters arriving from all around the world. Being able to print this coloring page for free makes it the perfect picture for kids wondering how Santa actually keeps track of so many wishes.
Why the "working" Santa offers such a nice new perspective

For kids, it's a nice way to understand that even things that seem effortless usually take a lot of preparation - a small, age-appropriate lesson wrapped in a lovely coloring page.
