Cyber Santa

One of the most novel features created on Alexa is the Christmas content created for children. There’s a Santa tracker so that you can find out where the great man is (though in the Summer he’s switched on the ‘do not disturb feature’), a Christmas workout to get everyone on their feet, and you can even get the news from the North Pole. Once you’ve asked how many days there are until Christmas, Alexa offers you the opportunity to call Santa up to find out what he’s been up to each day. My absolute favourite is the mince pie song – I think that the lyrics are brilliant. We’re not sure who actually does the voice; though my uncle suspects that it’s Rob Brydon. It’s great fun and bot somehow has better listening skills than Alexa herself. There’s always something different to do or try each day, or you can always repeat the favourites.
