Santa’s elves love finding out about kid’s passions, and this one is really incredible.
We got this special request at our letter-sorting outpost at the Stars and Stripes Europe headquarters. In it, a budding entomologist (that’s someone who studies insects!) is asking for some specialized equipment.
They want to study ants!
We also think ants are very cool. They all have special jobs to do that help their colony run smoothly, just like elves help out at the North Pole. Ants are also super strong and can lift things much heavier than themselves, just like the Santa’s reindeer can pull a sleigh full of toys for all the kids in the world.
