Every year I participate in the Canada Post letters to Santa program. If you have a child who would like to send a letter to Santa and have it returned please read below. Don't wait as we have already received thousands of letters! If you are a teacher anywhere in the world message me and I'll give you the details for teachers. It is a lot of fun and very rewarding.
North Pole (Canada) – Each year, the holiday season puts a spotlight on popular toys and new exciting trends, but one timeless holiday tradition is still going strong for children all over the world. Already, Santa’s post office is reporting letters are pouring in – with the first one received in July, reminding Santa to eat well and exercise in anticipation of a very busy holiday season.
Santa’s Chief Postal Elf Holly T. Elf is reporting that already some 10,000 letters have come in, keeping postal elves busy. An increase of about 10% in letters is expected this year, meaning that Santa’s post office could answer over 1.5 million letters this season in more than 30 languages, including Braille. Santa and his 6,000 postal elves will ensure that each and every letter will get a response in time for Christmas.
“I encourage all the girls and boys to send their letter to Santa soon,” says Holly T. Elf, who started working at the North Pole post office more than 30 years ago. “And don’t forget to include your return address. " While Santa knows where your house is, the postal elf team needs your address to ensure your letter will be delivered on time.”
All letters to Santa should be mailed before December 11 to give Santa enough time to send a letter back. Postage is not required for letters to Santa (in Canada) – but encouraging proper addressing is a good learning experience for all. Santa’s address is:
Santa Claus
North Pole
Canada HOH OHO
