We’ve already seen a few Santas go the extra mile this December for kids with special needs, and this St. Nick from the Cleveland Centre in Middlesbrough, England, is no exception.

After sitting in Santa’s lap, a little girl had some difficulty communicating.

“Sorry, she can’t talk very well,”  the child’s mother is heard saying in the video below. Santa wasn’t fazed; instead, he asked if the girl knew sign language.

Much to the little girl’s delight, Santa began signing to her, and not only did they seem to understand one another, but the smile on her face is absolutely priceless.
