One of the most familiar sounds associated with Santa Claus and his sleigh is the jingle of the sleigh bells that the reindeer wear on their special harnesses. Each reindeer has 86 individual bells. After flying around the world a few times, some of the bells get worn out and lose their special jingle. These bells are then replaced with fresh bells and sent to the re-jingling department to be restored to their original condition. They are tuned up and polished so shiny that the elves can see their reflections in them.
