Letters FROM Santa

We all know about writing letters to Santa, but what about having your child receive a letter from him? I came across this blog post today and thought you might like to read it too! Did you know you can write your own letter from Santa to your kids and have it postmarked at the North Pole and sent back to you? Basically you write your own letter as if you were Santa - reminding the kids to be good, telling them which kind of cookies to leave or which reindeer likes carrots and print it on really nice paper as if Santa had written it himself. Then you put your own address on it and Santa's as the return address, put that stamped envelope in another envelope and mail it to:


North Pole Christmas Cancellation
Postmaster
5400 Mail Trail
Fairbanks, AK 99709-9998


The North Pole Postmaster will cancel the envelope with a special Santa stamp and mail it back to your child. How cool is that? I've heard of people doing a similar thing for Valentine's Day - having their cards cancelled in Loveland - but I never knew about the Santa letters :) If you choose to do this be sure it arrives in Fairbanks by December 15th so that Santa will have time to send it back before Christmas!
