How to Post a Letter to Santa

Send Santa your wish list early so you know he gets it.

Posting your letter to Santa long before Christmas comes is a good idea. There are millions of kids all over the country who will be doing the same, so getting your letter sent to Santa as soon as possible is best. There are two ways to get a hold of Santa now, email or mailing a letter to the North Pole.

Instructions

Emailing Santa

1. Log on to your email. Click on the button that says "Compose."

2. Type [e-mail] in the box that says "To."

3. Write your letter to Santa Claus. Start with a greeting, followed by telling him whether you have been a good boy or girl and, then include your wish list. Be sure to sign the letter. Santa gets thousands of letters a day, and he might not know who your letter is from if you don't include your name.

4. Click on the "Send" button once you are finished with your letter to Santa. Within a week, you should receive a reply from Santa, Mrs. Claus or Rudolph.

Hand Writing to Santa

1. Write your letter to Santa on a piece of paper. Be sure to include a greeting, tell Santa whether you have been a good boy or girl, and then include a wish list. Make sure that you say, "Thank you," and write your name on the bottom of the letter so that Santa knows who it is from.

2. Fold the letter so that it fits in the envelope. Seal the envelope. On the front side of the envelope, write your name and address in the upper left-hand corner. Place a stamp in the right-hand corner of the envelope. In the center of the envelope, write:

   Santa Claus

   North Pole

   Hoh Oho

3. Put your letter to Santa into the mailbox, or give it to your parents to mail.

Tips & Warnings

• The best time to start sending letters to Santa is in June. This is when he gets back from vacation, and he will have enough time to know whether you have been good or bad.
