Baby Jesus can write in English. Santa can write in Czech.
You call him Ježíšek at home, Grandma reads English and you open presents in the morning? Choose the character, language and gift time separately, then put each message in your own words.
An illustrative family journey.
Use the names you use at home.
Swap “Dear children” for a family nickname. Add a second language to a message or translate as you read it aloud. Everyone invited to a journey sees the same messages in the words you’ve chosen.
Imagine it at home
- Who writes
Santa or Baby Jesus, with a map symbol of your choice.
- Which words
Start in English or Czech and edit the text.
- When he arrives
By the tree in the evening, or the next morning.
A journey to your home
Choose where you’ll celebrate and when you’ll open presents. Follow Santa or Baby Jesus as he gets closer.
A message with your child’s name
Add a familiar nickname, a favourite book or something your children are looking forward to. You read and approve every message first.
Try it before Christmas
See what your children will see. Speed through the day, open the messages and try the arrival without starting the real journey.
Does each person get an automatic translation?
No. A journey has one story language and shared messages. A parent can write a bilingual message; the app doesn’t translate it for each reader.
More practical questionsIdeas to try together
Evening or morning presents? Write the right last letter.
In some homes, a bell rings after dinner. In others, children find their presents when they wake up. The last evening letter can invite them to the tree or wish them goodnight.

In your child’s drawing, Baby Jesus has wings. In another family, everyone imagines him differently. A little star can show his route on the map and leave children’s pictures as they are.
