Remember holiday activity books as a kid? Santa's Christmas Activity Book incorporates some of the fun features of the old activity books we all used to play with and has adapted some of the ideas into fun interactive educational holiday games for children of all ages.

The activities consist of writing a letter to Santa, matching holiday words, counting holiday objects, and creating their own masterpieces by dragging and dropping items onto a Christmas tree, a gingerbread man or building a snowman. There are endless possibilities with the ability to print as kids can create holiday pictures and cards with the print outs. The best feature about this app is the ability to write or draw a letter to Santa Claus and email him directly from the app and receive an email back from Santa!

This is sure to be a number 1 best selling Christmas app with parents as it gives them parental controls that allows them to disable the print, email and audio features until they want those features accessible to the user as well as keeping children busy for hours. Santa's Christmas Activity Book is a must for children that will engage the spirit of the holiday and is great for families traveling to visit grandparents or relatives.
