"Hi this is Laura Turner and today we are going to talk about how to write a letter to Santa Claus. Writing a letter to Santa Claus is like writing any other letter but it's special because Santa. So what you want to do is you actually want to either type or write handwrittenly your date, and I have an example right here. The date that you are writing your letter to Santa and then you are going to actually want to write his name and address in the left hand corner. And then you are going to want to formally address it to him. If you are on a first name basis with Santa you could say Dear Santa, but if you got a little more reverence for him you can say Dear Mr. Claus. First of all you are going to want to thank Santa for all the toys that he brought you last year. You are going to want to mention specifically which toys you enjoyed the most and how much you love playing with them. Secondly you'll want to tell Santa how good you've been this year. And you are going to be very honest, you know if you think that you did do something that wasn't so good this year go ahead and tell Santa and tell him that you are sorry but that you also did many good things this year. And elaborate on these things. And then finally at the every end the most important thing tell Santa what you want for Christmas this year. And how much you would love to see it under the tree and then finally thank Santa for all that he does for you. And tell him how much you love him and then sign your letter and put it at the fire place or give it to your mom and she'll send it for you. Have fun."
