When it comes to creating holiday magic, nothing delights children quite like receiving a letter from Santa Claus. Fortunately, with a little help from the U.S. Postal Service, you can craft a personalized response to your child’s letter and have it postmarked directly from the North Pole. Imagine the joy on their faces as they unwrap a special letter from Santa himself!
Here’s how you can make this enchanting moment happen:
- Start by having your child compose a letter to Santa. Ensure they place it in an envelope addressed to: Santa Claus, North Pole.
- Once your child is away, open the envelope and write a heartfelt reply to their letter.
- Place the response letter into a new envelope, addressing it to your child.
- Don’t forget to add the return address: SANTA, NORTH POLE, to this envelope.
- To make it truly festive, attach a First-Class Mail stamp—like the new Christmas Carols Forever stamp—to the envelope. Remember, the USPS depends on stamp sales, so keep that in mind!
- Finally, put the entire envelope inside a larger one (a Priority Mail Flat Rate envelope works best) and send it to:
North Pole Postmark Postmaster 4141 Postmark Drive Anchorage, AK 99530-9998
Be sure to capture the moment when your little ones receive their letters back. The USPS encourages you to share these delightful reactions online using the hashtag “#LettersFromSanta.” Just remember, to ensure your child receives their letter in time for Christmas, you must post it to the Anchorage, AK, postmaster by December 15th.
