Santa Mega Pack is a combo app made for the kids of iPhone or iPod Touch-ownin’ parents. It combines 10 apps in 1 and provides hours of educational fun for the children.

Included in the package are stories, a coloring book with 12 whimsical holiday scenes, wooden style as well as animated jigsaw puzzles, holiday mazes, memory games, and of course the ability to talk to Santa.

The last mentioned is especially interesting feature. Kids can call Santa to leave their wish list as many times as they like and these audio files can then be emailed to family members right from within the app. Parents on their end can select when and how Santa will communicate with children for the “ultimate reaction.” Santa can give naughty or nice responses such as Good Listening, Good at School, Not Behaving, Not Sleeping and many more.

Furthermore, there’s the ability to receive customizable text messages from Santa…

All in all, Santa Mega Pack should keep kids entertained while parents are working around the house, preparing for the Christmas Eve.
