What should a letter from Santa say?
A great letter from Santa feels like Santa really knows your child. In step 2 you choose from four examples, including a poem. These tips make it personal.
Be specific
Children really believe it when Santa knows things only they know. Mention a lost tooth, a new friend at school or the day they helped a little brother.
Keep it positive
A letter from Santa is a compliment, not a telling-off. Want to raise something, like bedtime or tidying up? Make it an encouragement from Santa.
Use Santa's world
The Nice List, the elves, Rudolph, the workshop and the sleigh: small North Pole details make the letter believable and festive.
Write it to be read aloud
Younger children have the letter read to them. Short sentences and a few paragraphs work best, and a poem is extra fun to read aloud.
When should you send it?
We print and mail the letter as soon as you order, so you choose the moment. Just leave enough time for the mail.
