Santa gets tons of letters from children (and children-at-heart) around the globe, so sometimes he is not able to get a child everything on their list. This is why it is important that you only include your top items.
Ask your parents if they have any fun paper you can use. You can also use a premade card if you want. Talk to your parents to see what they have.
Make sure you can write clearly and neatly with whatever writing utensil you pick. Santa needs to be able to read your letter so he can bring you what you want.
Ask your parents for help if you are not sure how to write your address.
Write, “My name is _____. I am __ years old. ”
Showing your manners will boost your chances of being on the Nice List.
You might write, “I helped my little sister tie her shoes last week” or “I cleaned my room right away when my parents asked. ”
Write something like, “I would please like a new soccer ball, a scooter, and a pair of sneakers. ”
Maybe your mother is crazy about chocolate bars. You could ask Santa for a few chocolate bars for her. Say something like, “I would also like two chocolate bars for Mommy because they are her favorite!” Your request does not have to be a present–it can also just be a nice wish for a person you love. You could wish for a happy Christmas for everyone in your family or that your brother’s broken arm heals up soon.
You could say, “Thank you for being so kind and generous. I appreciate it!” You could also write something like, “It is amazing how you deliver presents every year to kids like me all over the world. Thank you so much. ”
For example, you might sign your letter, “Love, Abby. ”
Use crayons, markers, colored pencils, and pens to draw all sorts of Christmas pictures. If you make a few mistakes, do not worry; Santa loves little imperfections. However, if you really want to start over, you can.
Feel free to decorate the envelope.
It might be cool to ask your parents to show you the North Pole on a map so you can see where your letter is going. It looks cold there, doesn’t it?
