Man plays the part when little girl mistakes him for Santa — VIDEO

Are you ready to have your heart melted by one of the cutest video of the season? 

Imagine being a kid, walking through the aisles of a Wal-Mart with your parent with the Christmas season in full swing when suddenly you spot the man who could give you that dream gift.

That's what happened to this little West Virginia girl, and she jumped at the opportunity to say hi to good ole' St. Nick.

The girl first approaches the unsuspecting look-a-like by asking him if he's Santa. 

"I've been called a lot worse," the man replies.

The man plays along, pretending to be Santa Claus himself.

He even asks if he's allowed to eat all the cookies she leaves him.

This adorable exchange should get you into the holiday spirit. Check out the whole conversation above.
