Santa has a wonderful partner and loving wife in Maggie Claus. Like him, she loves children, helping them realize the goodness within them, and making them happy.  Like Santa, she is a great storyteller, and a good toy-maker-- she specializes in beautiful ornaments and dolls.  Whenever she has the chance, she enjoys visiting with children and reading them some of her favorite stories. She also loves to sing, draw and take care of all the animals at the North Pole.

 

Maggie is often the first to open and read children's letters and organizes them for Santa and the elves.  She is also the chief cook in the Candy Kitchen and specializes in delicious maplenut fudge and gooseberry muffins.  She is also in charge of the North Pole whenever Santa is away visiting with children and on Christmas Eve.

 

Sometimes she accompanies Santa, but she really doesn't like to fly (she can get a little sleigh-sick).  She doesn't hesitate to get involved in major North Pole events like the annual Snowman Building Competition-- she won three years in a row.  She's also quite handy in snowball fights and she and Santa love to go dancing in the Grand Elf Hall on Saturday nights.

 

Maggie is the love of Santa's life and he doesn't know what he'd do without her.  And as she says, "Be glad you don't have to!" And he is.

 

 Maggie Trivia:  Her favorite colors are pink, green, and red.  She loves to do needlework, grow roses in the North Pole Hot House, to write stories for children and little elves, make Christmas ornaments, and travel.  Her favorite sweet treats are gingerbread cookies, candy canes, and chocolate.
