We Spent The Day With Father Christmas And This Is What He Had To Say

He had a message for all the children in the world.

The Huffington Post UK headed to Hamleys Toy Shop to visit Father Christmas himself and find out exactly what he gets up to during December.

Away from the hustle and bustle of the busy toy shop floor, we visited Father Christmas’ grotto to see what he does with his days and even captured some children meeting him for the first time.

The big man himself also gave a special message to all the kids in the world about what they should do on Christmas eve, so don’t forget to show them.
