Oklahoma Kids Can Track Santa’s Magical Christmas Eve Journey

· NewsTalk 1290

Santa has a busy flight schedule on Christmas Eve with a lot of houses to visit all over the world! And little kids in Oklahoma are wondering where the state falls in Santa's Christmas Eve itinerary.

Luckily, there's an easy way to track Santa on Christmas Eve! The NORAD Santa tracker allows little ones and their families to see where the big guy is at. And it even offers an estimate of where he'll be during certain times each year.

Santa usually arrives in Oklahoma between 9 p.m. and midnight.

Santa will only visit if your fast asleep! So kids in Oklahoma will want to be sure to be in bed before 9 p.m. on Christmas Eve. The big guy is estimated to be delivering presents in Oklahoma sometime between 9 p.m. and midnight on Christmas Eve.

Santa only delivers presents to homes when all is quiet.

It's hard to imagine how Santa delivers to every little one on Christmas Eve, but he does it all with Christmas magic! However, this does make it impossible for NORAD to know exactly what house and when Santa visits.

Only Santa, his elves and his reindeer know every detail of the Christmas Eve schedule!

But there are a few things little ones should remember to make sure Santa delivers their presents on Christmas Eve:

  • Santa will only visit if little ones are asleep.
  • Santa will deliver presents to a home when all is quiet.

And don't forget to leave milk and cookies out for Santa! He has a lot to do on Christmas Eve so a nice little snack helps. Plus, carrots for the reindeer are always appreciated.
