894.0. "Something for Children" by CECV01::TARRY () Wed Dec 13 1989 08:21

I heard on a television news broadcast that there is a nursing home that is
providing a toll free call to either Santa Claus or Mrs. Claus played by
residents of the nursing home.  I did not catch the hours, but I would 
assume normal business hours.  Children can call in and have a real 
conversation with the actor or actress.  It is good for the patients and
fun for the children.  The number is  1-800-442-XMAS.

    It's called the "Ho-Ho Hotline" and I think it's based in Texas.  The
    line is also open a day or two after Christmas so kids can call and say
    thanks and so the nursing home residents don't feel such a
    post-Christmas let-down!
