Toronto ad agency Zulu Alpha Kilo has created an app just in time for Christmas; the ‘Kringl’ app was designed in order to help parents convince their children that Santa is real and still exists. The app preserves the magic and spirit of Santa Claus with cold hard facts that are entirely false.
The app features a surprisingly real and accurate video of Santa visiting your home. The app uses pre-recorded scenes of the Santa Claus doing his traditional Santa routine, like eating cookies, drinking milk, checking his list to see if he’s got the right house and searching for gifts to put underneath the Christmas tree. By combining Santa and the real-live footage of your own home, you can now successfully convince (or lie) to your children that it’s not you putting gifts underneath the Christmas tree! The app is also for a good cause as it collects donations for the Make-a-Wish Foundation in Canada for every download!
