Some of the best Christmas presents my brothers and I got as children were the Santa letters we got in our stockings one year. Christmas was always a magical time for our family, but the year that each of us kids got personalized Santa letters, the Christmas magic seemed closer than ever.
I still have the Santa letters we got, and keep them in a scrapbook, including the little stamps they had on them, telling us that the Santa letters had come direct from the North Pole. The Santa letters weren't anything too exquisite. Each letter from Santa simply started calling us by name, and telling us that we'd been very good that year. The details in the Santa letters varied, some of the Santa letters talked about the reindeer and their exploits, and others talked about Santa Claus' workshop, or the elves. The way each of the Santa letters was personalized and detailed made all of us children feel like Santa really cared about us, and we had a very Merry Christmas that year.
Now that I have children of my own, each Christmas Eve I write Santa letters for each of them. Each of the personalized Santa letters starts "Dear (child's name)" and continues to tell them Merry Christmas. The Santa letters then tell the children about Rudolph and all the other reindeer and what they do in the North Pole. One of my daughters always asks me things like what kind of cookie does Santa like best, and where do Santa Claus and Mrs. Claus go on dates. Answering these questions in the Santa letters is fun to do, and my daughter always gets excited that Santa took the time to answer her questions in the Santa letters.
If you don't want to write Santa letters each Christmas, there are actually many services which now offer Santa letters, personalized for your child, and you can order them online. These Santa letters go from being basic to very fancy, but no matter what form the Santa letters come in they make children very happy.
Having Santa letters, whether it is just one special Christmas, or every Christmas eve, makes Christmas and Santa seem more real to a child, and this can help them feel loved and valued. It doesn't matter if you make the Santa letters or purchase them, what matters is the joy that your children will feel when they see the Santa letters. Seeing the joy of my children when they received their first Santa letters made me so happy that it has been a tradition to have Santa letters in our family every year since then. It makes Christmas a special, exciting time, and makes me feel like a child again.
If you decide to do Santa letters in your family, then the more imagination and detail you can put into the Santa letters, the better. Telling them all the exploits of the reindeer and telling them all about everything the elves do in the workshop makes the Santa letters even more fun for the kids. Santa letters is a tradition I'm glad was started, and it makes Christmas a happier time for everyone in the house.
