It’s finally Christmas week, and if you have an Echo smart speaker tucked in the corner of your home, then there are some festive things to ask Alexa. Yes, the chatty Amazon assistant has plenty of answers to Christmas questions, along with helping you cook the turkey. She can also ensure the playlists are queued up and provide an honest assessment of your chosen comedy jumper.

So, if you have any Echo speakers dotted around the home, here are some top things to ask Alexa right now and over Christmas.

You can listen to hundreds of different radio stations just by asking.

“Alexa, play XMAS by Kylie”
Yes, you can hear the famous popster’s new festive song via Amazon Music.

“Alexa, sing Snacking Santa”

This is a nice bonus for families. Via Alexa, Santa and his elves have a new message every day.

“Alexa, how ugly is my Christmas jumper?”
Ask the question and Alexa will give you her honest opinion about your sweater.

“Alexa, have I been naughty or nice?”
Answer Santa’s questions to find out which of his lists you’re on.

“Alexa, how many sleeps until Christmas?”
Just ask and Alexa will tell you.

“Alexa, what are my deals?”
This is smart feature. Check out Amazon’s top trending deals based on your purchase history and Amazon bestsellers.

“Alexa, how should I decorate my Christmas tree?”

This will make sure you don’t wake up too late to get the dinner in the oven.

“Alexa, set a three hour turkey timer”
