Have you ever wondered how Santa can carry so many presents in that small bag? The truth is; He can't! It's all a media hoax, because the truth is not something you'd want to tell small children.

But here's the true story!

When you make cookies for Santa, you unintentionally put all your hopes and desires into the cookie dough. When Santa eats the cookies, he poops out the gift you wished for.

There has been some rather disturbing presents under the trees over the time, but I won't get into that...

-

Santa can store a bunch of cookies in his mouth and 2 presents in the butt. You can also store small gifts inside him like jewelry and ask the kids to put their wish list inside his mouth.

-

You'll get the pattern for Santa, cookies and gifts.
