Now the reason why it's important that you learn to do this, it's because you're the most photographed people in the world. The Charles W. Howard Santa Claus School is the world's oldest Santa Claus school. It is here to help Santa's become [Music]. The Santa Claus school teaches the Santa's how to build that Santa spirit in their heart.

What you do, it's not how far you go in life, it's who you walk with. Who you walk with, that's nice. Somewhere around five thousand Santa's have come through the Santa school since 1986. This year, we've had 200 Santa's at Santa's school, and 25% of those were Mrs. Claus's. So it is something you're behind me. Yes, that is Mrs. Claus, Karen. [Music]

What hit me was that the kids won't remember what they got for Christmas, but they're going to remember their visit with Santa. I wouldn't change a thing with that. If that natural hair is taken care of, it can look really good; and so can a real natural hair from a wig master. But you know, a lot of these fellows are from my generation, the hippie generation, so they had that hair back when they were younger, so they just bring it back.

It wasn't until I became Santa Claus that I actually grew up. My DNA changed. DNA stands for December Nice Attitude. Santa Jerry has fun in life, so I'm sure he has fun being Santa. Yeah baby, he's a carrot! You leave your ego in the sleigh, so everyone is more heart-centered, and they offer their experiences or tricks to help you become a better Santa because you never learn it all. I'm not worthy, the simple grasshopper here.

I help, I pick out one or two other rookie Santa's and give them tips on how to be the best Santa they can be. Part of what I was asking him about was the kids that are afraid of you and how you deal with that. Now they're standing, they're above you; their blood pressure's would have dropped. Learning the Santa spirit and going through the process we do makes you understand that there really is a Santa Claus. There's a Santa Claus spirit, and that spirit is in all 200 of these students that are here today. [Music] [Music] You.
