Whatever Happened to Getting a Letter from Santa Each Christmas?
Make This Christmas Memorable with a Letter from Santa
One Christmas tradition that is almost extinct is the annual tradition of receiving a letter from Santa. When I was a small child, I looked forward to receiving an annual letter from Santa. Nowadays, I rarely hear any kids mention this Christmas tradition. This year why not send the child in your life a personalized letter from Santa.
Happiness Can Come Cheap
There are services that specialize in sending personalized letters from Santa. A quick Internet search is likely to turn up several possibilities. GreetingsFromSanta.com is one website that offers a personalized letter from Santa and a follow-up postcard in January for just $9.95. They also offer eight stationary designs to choose from, so you are sure to find something that catches your eye. At EmailSanta.com, you can even email Santa Clause your Christmas list. Apparently, they have Internet service at the North Pole!
There are a number of websites offering letters from Santa this year and finding the one that meets your needs is as simple as browsing through a few of them to see what you like best. Some letters are typed, some emailed and some hand-written. Some even come postmarked from the North Pole!
Free Is Better Than Cheap
If you don’t feel like spending money on a letter from Santa, you may want to consider writing the letter yourself. It can be very fun and is sure to put you in the mood for Christmas. If you think your child would recognize your handwriting, you might want to have a friend or co-worker write the letter for you. Just make sure that the outside envelope has “Santa Clause, North Pole” in the return-address spot.
Bring an Old Tradition Back to Life
This Christmas revive the forgotten tradition of having your kids receive letters from Santa. You will enjoy seeing their expression just as much as they enjoy receiving the letter. Make this Christmas a fun and memorable one with a letter from Santa.
