How to Call Santa Using Google Home
If you’re a Santa fanatic, this year Google is offering kids (and adults) a fun opportunity to call the big guy at his North Pole home.
To start a call, simply say “Ok Google, call Santa” to your Google Home device or the Google Assistant on your phone. When you do, you will hear the dialing sound and then connect with an elf who will eventually transfer you to Santa, who happens to be in the middle of a holiday musical rehearsal.
You can’t hit Santa with your wishlist above the speaker, but he asks you to help create his musical number with a few multiple choice questions. When you’re done answering them, Santa ends up playing you a holiday jam with your suggestions.
Growing up in my 30s, I found that the experience, which takes maybe 2 minutes, is kind of funny and much more believable than expected. If I were a child believing in Santa, in single digits, I think it would be amazing .
