Christmas

Best place to get a letter from Santa?

My sister started this on DS's first Christmas by making him the most beautiful letter from Santa but has been too busy every year since to do it again

So last year I ordered him one from the NSPCC which was good but not great.

Does anyone know where I can get a really nice letter from Santa for my DS and possibly DD if she arrives on time...

The Xmas before last, I ordered one from Rooftop POst. It was brilliant - discreet, personalised, utterly charming, handwritten with arty writing and little drawings, and telling a delightful story about stuff going on in Father Xmas\s house. I might do the same this year, if the company is still around.

Last year we visited Santa in Lapland - the best!

They look great.

DS will be easy to order for but DD is due the week before Christmas and we've still not picked a name!!

I just do my own on Word. That way I can make it really personal and also ask them to do things such as remember to brush your teeth, make your bed, stop whinging over the slightest thing.

We have an elf (little santa decoration) who comes to stay around about this time every year to make sure DCs are being good. He lives on to of the bookshelf where he can see if DCs are being good and can tell FC.

We put our letters to santa by the fire, and Santa leaves their replys there.

Another one who does her own.

I even do the envelope with "Lapland postmark"!

Normally, doing my own would be just the sort of thing I would do but will DD due the week before Christmas and me being totally paniced about how were going to get everything done before she arrives, I just don't have the time...

We still haven't finished emptying her room to paint it and we've got a trip to Center Parcs to fit in too!!

It's well worth a fiver to have it done for me this year I think

portable north pole! (can't do links sorry) via pc/laptop don't think you can do it until November though. its a website where you enter child's details e.g name, age, favourite things and what they want for xmas. An email arrives to your email address and it is a short video message from santa which includes all the relevent info. DD1 (7) has loved it for the past couple of years
