As the hustle and bustle of the holiday season is fully upon us, families
are in search of an alternative to the chaotic department store crowds, and
have found one in the form of the loveable, magical, wintry-wonderland world of
ClausKids.com.
With worldwide economic uncertainties distracting us from the true meaning of
the season, people everywhere look for relief from the high-priced holidays of
the past. Realizing this, John Kurtz, co-founder and co-producer for ClausKids.com,
and his colleagues have worked a tireless two years to bring you a colorful
cast of characters accompanied by original music, animation, games, and more.
Like lightning in a bottle, Kurtz and his team captured the true essence of the
Christmas season. With an annual subscription to ClausKids.com costing just $5,
available instantly through online purchase via PayPal, Visa, MasterCard,
American Express, and Discover, kids and their families can spend countless
hours alongside their favorite North Pole pals. Offering something for
everyone, they also boast dozens of free activities, puzzles, mazes, and
holiday recipes.

Sebastian Kurtz, co-writer and co-producer for the project, stated, "The
collection of talent on this project is unprecedented for a young company like
ours. But we all had the same goal, and we stuck to it. We wanted to give
families a budget-friendly way to spend the holidays together, and for $5, we
do that. ClausKids.com has become what we always envisioned it would be, and I
think people are starting to recognize that."
As it turns out, Kurtz is right. Already receiving critical accolades,
ClausKids.com believes it is only a matter of time before they are widely
recognized.
