Jeffery Santa Claus from Minneapolis, MN

fa la la la la, I've been blessed to be Santa for 9 years now! To uphold the traditions and preserve the history of Santa Claus I had the amazing opportunity to attend The Charles W. Howard Santa School, 85th year class and The International University of Santa Claus, 20th year class. It was important to me to improve and further define my own twinkle and sparkle of Santa, allowing me to enter the hearts and spread the Christmas spirit to everyone I meet. Over the years I've performed for several generations within families - I love to see how they grown and treasure the tradition of allowing me to brighten their season. It's a beautiful blessing. As the portrayal character artist of “Papa Noel” and humanitarian clown, “Lalala" I'm and expert at “spontaneous impromptu play.” What does that mean to you? It means that your photo shoot: Christmas cards - children and pets, small to large families, groups, corporate and community events, advertising and marketing - etc., will be filled with interactive moments like storytelling, fun facts and trivia, I may share the secret Santa Handshake, be your guest game show host or a surprise guest. Most of all you will get the deepest, realest, and infectious laugh when my real-beard is pulled! Getting down to eye level with the children and connecting with them through interactive play helps the shyest and sensory-friendly warm up to the experience. I look forward to being YOUR Santa __________ I'm also available as "Lalala" - the past 11 years I have traveled as an international humanitarian clown. Clowning on five continents for tens of thousands of children - many in hospitals and orphanages. I view "Papa Noel" and "Lalala" are akin to one another. The spirit of giving! Making a fun and safe connection with the person in front of you no matter what the situation seems to always be the goal.
