Hi!
I'm sure that I have read, sometime in the past, that there is somewhere that you can send your Santa letters to - and your child will get a reply ...
Now, I know that would only be a computer generated reply but I think that this year Robin would really appreciate that ...
Does anyone know where? and how you go about it?
Thanks for any ideas!
Helen
Writing to Santa?

Not sure, but Al did this in school -several years running he asked for a baby brother or sister
I get a letter from somewhere called Lapland Letter Box. You don't send your letter in though - they just write to the child. Bit corny but Emily loves it (and so did Cam till he grew up!).

thanks Trish, I'll google that one!
Corny will do, this year at least, I'm sure!
Quite appropriate as the Swedish Santa comes from Lapland, of course ....

I know it wont' be any use to you but the Royal Mail do this

Done it, thank you. £4.99 to the UK, £5.24 to Sweden.
Probably worth it for this year, but maybe next year I'll get like Tolkien, and write one myself!

Can I just say my eldest is 16 now, and STILL wrote to Santa this year.
OH thinks it's demented, I think it's cute.
I think it's very cute too!
To those writing your own letters to your child from santa...my gran always used to write the reply from santa to me. One year she didn't address the envelope properly (didn't put the town on or no post code or something), so she rewrote one. The 7yr old me commented on how much Father Christmas' letter A's looked like Gran's!!! Lol and then she had to watch for the postman every morning to kidnap the original letter! That story is now a family joke... and I still have the Robin card (replacement one) safe
