Quick answers for your family’s Christmas countdown.

How does this countdown know when Christmas is?

The live timer counts down to midnight on December 25 using your device’s local timezone, shown beneath the timer. It celebrates all of Christmas Day, then starts counting toward next Christmas on December 26.

What does “sleeps” mean?

It’s the number of nights left until Christmas morning, a simple way for little ones to keep track of the wait.

Will the name I add be shared?

No. Personalization is stored only on this device in this browser. It is not submitted to Talk to Santa, and you can remove it with “Clear my name.”

Can I share this countdown with family?

Yes. Use the share button above to share or copy this page’s link, then send it to anyone who’s counting down with you.
