There's just hours to go until the good boys and girls across East Yorkshire wake up to find presents have been delivered to them as they slept.
And the Mail can confirm that Father Christmas's magical mission across the globe has already begun.
His progress around the world is being tracked by North American Aerospace Defence Command, (NORAD) who keep their eyes on the skies throughout the year, including at Christmas.
NORAD has traditionally followed Santa and his sleigh for more than 50 years after an advert in Colorado Springs misprinted a number for children to call him.
Instead of reaching the North Pole, they were put through to what was then known as the Continental Air Defence Command's operations hotline.
The Director of Operations at the time, Colonel Harry Shoup, had his staff check the radar for signs of Santa and the annual ritual began.
Since then NORAD men, women, family and friends have volunteered their time to personally respond to phone calls and emails from children all around the world.
And now you can join millions of people who want to know Santa's whereabouts by tracking his movements below.
Using radar, satellite, jet fighters and Santa cams, children and grown-ups alike can go online to see where he is and even watch videos and look at pictures.
His sleigh is said to be powered by 9RP (reindeer power) and has a climbing speed of 1T (twinkle of an eye).
Historically, according to NORAD, Santa visits the South Pacific first, then New Zealand and Australia.
After that, he heads to Japan, over to Asia, across to Africa, then onto Western Europe, Canada, the United States, Mexico and Central and South America, although his journey can be affected by the weather.
He visits every home where children believe but if children are still awake, he moves on to the next house so don't stay up all night watching him or he won't be able to deliver any presents.
