   The real Santa is busy making toys for all you boys and girls in his workshop in the North Pole, so he asked me to come down and visit you." This works pretty well, especially if you have a fake beard because sometimes, that occasional bratty child will try to rip off your fake beard to prove you are not Santa., Tell the child, "Of course I'm the real Santa! Ho ho ho!" and give him a candy cane so he won't say anything else that could blow your cover., It is the number one rule of being a good Santa.
   
   Santa loves children! , If you are having children sit on your lap or take a picture with you, give them a candy cane from your sack after each child tells you what they want for Christmas and / or take a picture with you.
   
   The children love it.
   
   If you are at an adult Christmas party, bounce around happily and give candy canes to random adults.
   
   Add a "Ho ho ho! Merry Christmas!" In there, and you will most likely make them smile.
