Plot[edit]
Eight years have passed since Scott Calvin took on the mantle of Santa Claus, redeemed himself to be good, and solved The Santa Clause Mystery. Now he has become a great Santa at the North Pole, until Head Elf Bernard and Curtis, the Keeper of the Handbook of Christmas break the news that there is another clause – the 'Mrs. Clause', a mystery of who will marry Scott.
Scott is now pressed to get married before the next Christmas Eve, or the clause will be broken and he will stop being Santa forever. At the same time, Abby the Elf delivers news that is more distressing: Scott's own son Charlie-(who is now a teenager in high school) is on the naughty list. Scott must return to his home to search for a wife and set things right with Charlie. He brings this up when visited by the Council of Legendary Figures consisting of Mother Nature, Father Time, Cupid, the Easter Bunny, the Tooth Fairy, and the Sandman. To cover for Santa's prolonged absence, Curtis helps Santa create a life-size toy replica of Santa, much to Bernard's horror.
Because of the impending end of his contract, Scott undergoes a 'de-Santafication process' that gradually turns him back into Scott Calvin. He has a limited amount of magic to help him. Scott returns home to his ex-wife Laura, her husband Neil, their six-year-old daughter Lucy, and Charlie, who Scott realizes has been vandalizing his school to get attention. He and Charlie both face the ire of the school principal Carol Newman when Charlie defaces the lockers and Scott tries to resolve the incident with the school, without having to punish his son.
At the North Pole, Toy Santa follows the rulebook too literally and begins to think that everyone in the world is naughty because of their small mistakes and errors. As a result, Toy Santa takes over the North Pole using giant toy soldiers which he made himself and places Bernard under house arrest. He then unveils his plan to the elves to give lumps of coal to the world.
After a few failed dates, Scott finds himself falling for Carol. He accompanies her in a horse-drawn sleigh to the faculty Christmas party, during which she confesses that she used to believe in Santa as a child, until she was forced to stop doing so by her parents after fighting with children who told her that Santa is not real. Using a little of his Christmas magic, Scott enlivens the otherwise dull party by presenting everyone with their childhood dream gifts. He makes a special presentation to Carol, and, with his last remnant of magic, wins her over and they kiss passionately under mistletoe. However, when Scott attempts to explain to her that he is Santa, she does not believe him, thinking that he is mocking her childhood, and throws him out. After which, Charlie confesses to Scott how hard it is for him that Scott is never around like other fathers, and reveals the pressure he is under to conceal the secret that his father is Santa. Lucy manages to convince Charlie not to be mad at Scott since he is his father, which causes Charlie to convince Carol that his father is Santa by showing her his magic snowglobe.
Curtis flies in to deliver the news about the Toy Santa's plan. However, Scott has used up the last of his magic wooing Carol, and cannot return to the North Pole. With a little help from the Tooth Fairy, Scott and Curtis manage to do so, only for Toy Santa to find them and tie them up, but Charlie and Carol spring him free by summoning the Tooth Fairy to fly them to the North Pole. Scott goes after the Toy Santa, who has already left with the sleigh, riding Chet, a reindeer-in-training, and they both crash back into the village. With an army of elves, Carol, Bernard, Charlie and Curtis lead them into a snowball fight to overthrow the toy soldiers. Toy Santa is defeated and reduced to a six-inch height, Scott marries Carol in a ceremony, Scott transforms back to Santa, and Christmas proceeds as it always has. In addition, Scott and Charlie reveal the truth to Lucy about Scott being Santa Claus and she cannot tell anyone about his secret, but that it's more of a gift than a burden.
