FAQ
What is a "Letter from Santa"?
A Letter from Santa is a personalized, festive message sent directly to your child (or loved one) from the North Pole! Each letter is customized with details you provide - such as the recipient’s name, age, caregiver names, teacher’s name, and friends’ names - to create a magical experience they'll never forget.
How do I personalize the letter?
During checkout, you'll fill out a short form with:
- Recipient’s name
- Age
- Caregiver name / a person who is ordering the letter name
- Teacher’s name
- Friends’ names
- Interests
We use this information to craft a unique, heartwarming letter from Santa himself!
What’s included in the package?
Each standard letter includes:
- A personalized letter from Santa printed on festive stationery
- A Nice List Certificate
- Reply Back Letter Template
- A lost button from Santa Claus’s suit (real!)
- Magic 3D Glasses and images
- Authentic Vintage Portrait of Santa himself
- Candy Cane - Peppermint Stick
- A North Pole postmark, “Important” and “Confidential” stamps, holiday stickers, and tags
Is this suitable for all ages?
Yes! Our letters are written for children aged about 3 to 15, in warm, simple words that are easy to read aloud. Older kids, and even grown-ups who still believe, love them too. Just add a note at checkout and we'll adjust the wording.
For little ones under 3: the package contains small parts (Santa's button) and hard candy. Choose "Skip the Candy" and keep small items out of reach, or give the letter on its own with adult supervision.
