“Am I a Bad Bear?” 🐻💔 Today we continue the story of Bramble the Polar Bear…Episode 5 Ho, ho, ho… Bramble the Polar Bear asked a question that stopped everything… “Santa… am I a bad bear?” With his big heart and even bigger hugs, Bramble was only trying to spread kindness—but sometimes, even kindness needs something important… permission. In this touching moment, Santa Papa John helps Bramble understand that being kind isn’t just about what we give—it’s about respecting what others need too. Because the kindest thing you can do… is ask, and then truly listen. A heartfelt lesson from the Big Hearts Happy Story Series that every child (and adult) can learn from.

The Dragon Who Just Wanted to Belong Ho, ho, ho… sometimes the biggest challenge isn’t being strong—it’s learning how to belong. Brindle the Dragon is trying his very best to be gentle, careful, and kind. When he’s invited to the village picnic, his heart lights up… but so does his worry. What if he makes a mistake again? Step by step, Brindle moves forward—soft voice, gentle steps, careful tail—hoping this time he gets it right. This touching moment from the Big Hearts Happy Story Series with Santa Papa John reminds us that even when we’re trying our best, learning takes courage… and everyone deserves a place to belong.

Storytime Wednesday, what keeps you motivated? Ho, ho, ho folks! It’s Wednesday, Wednesday, Wednesday and Santa is having an absolute blast today. I hope you’re off to a roaring start! And yes… the countdown continues… 281 days till Christmas! 🎄 Here’s a powerful reminder for today: Once you start something… don’t stop. Keep going, keep pushing, keep showing up. Success comes from consistency, not perfection. You’ve heard Santa say it before and you’ll hear it again… Climb those steps. Knock on those doors. OPEN those doors. Because the only way forward is action, and you never know what opportunity is waiting on the other side. If you run into a veteran, say thank you for your service and sacrifice. If you see a senior, say hello, open a door, carry a bag, and share a smile. Those small moments make a big difference. Santa’s had some amazing meetings today, met some incredible people, and guess what… there’s something BIG coming. 👀 A new idea, a new opportunity, something fun that YOU can be part of. Stay tuned… this one’s going to be exciting. And don’t forget… Storytime by Santa is TONIGHT at 7:00 PM! Come join the fun, grab your cocoa or lemonade, and enjoy some stories, smiles, and laughter. Have an amazing day, stay positive, keep moving forward, and remember… Santa loves you.
