Posted: Updated:Kids around the city are having no issues trying to reach Santa for their last-minute wishes and gift requests.
LinkNYC Wi-Fi and charging stations are offering the option to dial to Santa directly and leave him a message.
The kiosks, which launched throughout the city last year, are a first-of-its-kind payphone replacement.
The seasonal 'tap to call Santa' option is also a first this year.
All of the calls from the kiosks are free.
