    About Us

    The Little Clauses

      

    The Little Clauses, Gregory Little & Laura Hunt Little, are Santa & Mrs. Claus portrayal artists in Greater Palm Springs. The pair has been impersonating the North Pole’s most famous residents for community groups and private events since volunteering for a school fundraiser in 2011. 


    In 2020, they gained notoriety by filling their green Jeep with decorations of gifts and toys, and driving around spreading joy in an otherwise bleak year. In 2021, the couple upgraded to a custom-created “old world Santa” style wardrobe, and continued to drive their decorated Jeep where they were caught on video and went viral on Tik Tok with 1.4 million views.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    🎄 Booking & Appearances

    Prime holiday dates fill early — we recommend reserving by June for December events. Visits run late November through Christmas Eve. We specialize in corporate, resort, and community celebrations; limited private gatherings may be available. Santa and Mrs. Claus appear exclusively as a pair, creating a complete and magical experience for holiday parties, tree lightings, photo activations, and media events. 

    🎶 Enhance the Experience

    Don’t forget to ask about Mrs. Claus & the Candy Canes, a festive quartet featuring ukuleles, kazoo, and bells performing cheerful holiday favorites perfect for children and sing-alongs. 

    📸 Guest Experience

    Photos are our prime mission! Santa engages warmly with guests of all ages, and his kindness softens even the most hesitant guests. Well-behaved dogs are welcome to visit with Santa when the event is dog-friendly. Available for elegant indoor, outdoor, and poolside settings. 

    ❤️ Safety & Comfort

    Guest comfort and safety are our priority. Background checked, members of the Fraternal Order of Real Bearded Santas, and experienced with shy and sensory-sensitive guests. Professional, respectful, and inclusive at all times.
