A new survey found 77% of parents feel pressure to make the holidays even better than last year, and expect to stay up past midnight five times this month to make it all happen the way they want.
The poll also found kids ask a LOT of questions this time of year. And you can probably guess the most common one. Here are the Top 10.
1. Is Santa real? (Yes. Now stop asking.)
2. What if we don't have a chimney? (He has his ways.)
3. How does Santa deliver presents to all the kids in one night? (Magic . . . or possibly a system of wormholes.)
4. How does Santa fit down the chimney? (Ozempic.)
5. How does Santa know if I've been bad or good? (He uses Alexa to listen in.)
6. What if I'm naughty? Will I still get gifts? (If you start being good NOW, maybe.)
7. How do Santa's reindeer fly? (Magic . . . and possibly meth.)
8. Why don't I see Santa? ("He sees you when you're sleeping / He knows when you're awake.")
9. What do reindeer eat? (Moss, ferns, grass, fungi, and carrots if you leave one out.)
10. Can Santa's sleigh really fly? (Yes. NORAD tracks him each year. There's an app that lets you watch.)
