After the reading, children had the opportunity to ask questions to both Seacrest and the first lady. Obama wouldn’t give specifics as to what she bought U.S. President Barack Obama for Christmas, but she did answer questions about their dogs, Sunny and Bo.

“I actually have a whole request sheet just for them,” Obama said. “I get a whole set of requests, can Bo and Sunny take pictures with this group and this Ambassador’s coming in and they’ve made a request to see Sunny and Bo. And I have to approve it,” she said.
