Letters from Santa

[Matryoshka]

last year I bought DD a book all about Santa and his work etc - left it out one night with a letter from Santa too, she absolutely loved it and still talks about it.

She wrote a letter to santa the other night but I havent managed to get any xmas paper to send her a letter back!

Our toothfairy also has an email address, she thinks its so cool that "toothfairykiss" emails her

what was the santa book called?

sarah - I'd love to read a couple, especially baby's first Christmas.
I'm also interested in the book. What's the name of it?

[Kitt3n]

hey guys,

its called Santa Claus by Rod Green. Gives a run down on how the whole north pole thing works

Oh and by the way, did you know that Santa manages to do all the kids in one night as he bends space time, wormholes you see !!

and no that bit isnt in the book!

Thanks Kitt3n - I didnt know thats how it was done, but will be able to pass it onto DS next time he asks.

We are writting the letter this week (first time he is writing one - I need to very subtley suggest what he should write so that he dosent get dissapointed on the day when he doesnt get the very expensive and much too old for him thing that he says he wants) and DH and DS going into the city (Melbourne) to post it at the big red box on the weekend. Apparently you get a reply... has anyone else ever sent Santa a letter via the big red Santa post box in Melbourne?

Baby's First Christmas

Dear Baby .........,

Merry Christmas! I've been making my list and checking it twice and I've discovered that you are new on the list of nice little boys/girls this year.

I know your mum and dad are very happy to have you as the newest member of their family. They love you very much.

The reindeer and I are looking forward to bringing you lots of joy at Christmas and for many years.

This year your mum and dad asked me to bring you something special and I promise to do my best. But you have to promise to go to bed without any fuss on Christmas Eve so the reindeer and I can come to visit.

I know your family is thrilled to have you spending Christmas with them and the reindeer and I are very excited that we get to visit you on your very first Christmas.

Welcome to the world and have a very merry first Christmas.

Love from,
Santa.

Dear {name},

I just had to take a minute to write and tell you that I am very pleased with the good reports that I have received about you this year. I see that you, {brother & sister's names} are near the top of my list of good boys and girls. You have been so good that I'm bringing an extra special present just for you.

Everyone here at the North Pole is very busy preparing for Christmas Eve. Mrs. Claus has just finished fixing and cleaning my red suit. It had so many holes in the knees and elbows from sliding down all those chimneys last year that I almost needed a new one. It was just so dirty from all that black soot. Thank goodness it looks like new now and my boots have been polished too.

Very soon I will be on my way to visit you in {suburb}. {Name}, please leave out something yummy for me to eat and drink on Christmas Eve. I'll get really hungry by the time I get to your house. Keep up the good work and have a Merry Christmas.

Love Santa Claus

Dear {name},

Ho! Ho! Ho! Merry Christmas!

I’ve been making my list and checking it twice, and I found out that you are on the list of {age}-year-old boys/girls who have been nice this year. I am so pleased that you have been such a good boy/girl and you are right near the very top of my good list! That makes me so happy! The elves have made several wonderful presents for you for being so good this year.

We have been very busy at the North Pole getting ready for Christmas. Mrs. Claus has been baking biscuits, the reindeer have been practicing their flying, and the elves are building lots of toys. I know that you want {present} and I’ll do my best to bring you something that you’ll really like.

I’m looking forward to visiting you at Christmas and seeing you and {siblings names}.

Be sure to go to bed early on Christmas Eve because the reindeer can only stop at houses where the good little boys and girls are already asleep. And don’t forget to leave out some carrots for the reindeer and something yummy for me because we get hungry delivering so many toys all around the world.

Love Santa Claus

Dear {name},

All of the elves are in the kitchen right now baking lots of cookies with Mrs. Claus, so I decided to take a short break to write you a letter. I’ve heard that you like to play with {friends or siblings} and that you are so nice to {friends or siblings}. I also heard that you are a big help with {pet}, and I wanted to tell you how proud I am of you!

It says on my list that you would like to get {present} for Christmas. We’ll do the best we can to bring you what you’ve always wanted.

The reindeer are getting so excited! They love visiting all of the good boys and girls like you on Christmas Eve.

Well {name} it’s time to head back to the workshop. I’ll be seeing you very soon!

Love,

Santa
