Questions to ask your child
About me
How old are you? What do you love doing?
Good deeds
When did you help someone this year? What are you proud of learning?
Doing better
What is one thing you would like to try harder at next year?
Wish list
If Santa could bring only one thing, what would it be? What else would be nice?
Wish for others
What would make your family, a friend or a neighbor happy?
Question for Santa
What have you always wondered about the North Pole?
Make it extra special
Let your child sign the letter and decorate the margins with drawings or stickers.
Keep the wish list short, three to five items, with the favorite first.
Encourage a wish for someone else; it turns the letter into a lesson in kindness.
Keep a copy each year: read side by side, the letters become a lovely record of how your child grows.
Ask them three simple questions: what good things did you do this year, what would you love for Christmas, and what would you wish for someone else? Type their answers in their own words, choose a design and print it. Younger children can dictate; older ones can type or use the blank fill-in template to write by hand.
What should a letter to Santa include?
A greeting, the child's name and age, a few good deeds from the year, something they will try to do better, a short wish list with the favorite first, a wish for others, a question for Santa and a friendly sign-off. Mentioning cookies for Santa and carrots for the reindeer is a fun tradition.
Can I print a blank letter to Santa?
Yes. Tick "Make a fill-in template" and the letter is replaced with blank lines for the name, age, good deeds, wishes and question, so your child can write it by hand. Print several copies for siblings or a classroom.
How do I print the colored border?
Press Print and, in your browser's print dialog, turn on "Background graphics" (sometimes under More settings). The candy cane, snowy and classic borders will then print in color.
How many days until Christmas?
The result panel counts the sleeps from today until December 25. After Christmas it counts to next year's Christmas Day. For a big live countdown, use the Christmas Countdown tool.
Is my child's information safe?
Yes. The letter is made in your browser and nothing is uploaded or shared. We suggest using a first name and a town only, never a full home address.
