Other Christmas Eve Santa Claus rituals in the United States include reading "A Visit from St. Nicholas" or other tale about Santa Claus, watching a Santa or Christmas-related animated program on television (such as the aforementioned "Santa Claus Is Comin' to Town" and similar specials, such as "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer", among many others), and the singing of Santa Claus songs such as "Santa Claus Is Coming to Town", "Here Comes Santa Claus", and "Up on the House Top". Last minute rituals for children before going to bed include aligning stockings at the mantelpiece or other place where Santa cannot fail to see them, peeking up the chimney (in homes with a fireplace), glancing out a window and scanning the heavens for Santa's sleigh, and (in homes without a fireplace) unlocking an exterior door so Santa can easily enter the house.
