Letter to Santa Claus: You Can Send It with Our Mailboxes

Writing a letter to Santa Claus? From now on, it’s even easier with the beautiful Holyart mailboxes!

When did children start writing to Santa Claus? The tradition of sending a letter to Santa is widespread almost all over the world. About a month before Christmas, children set about writing a letter in which they tell the kindly, rosy-cheeked old man living at the North Pole about all the good deeds they have done over the past year, and list everything they think makes them worthy of receiving gifts. The letters are usually handed to parents, who will take care of posting them, or in many cases, sent directly by the children themselves.

It is remarkable to see the enthusiasm and care with which postal workers in countries such as the United Kingdom, Poland, Japan, the United States, and Canada, where the tradition of sending letters to Santa is still strong, devote much of their time to ensure the hopes of millions of children, who wait expectantly for some kind of reply, are not disappointed. The address to which these letters are sent varies from country to country: English children send them to Santa’s Grotto, Reindeerland, XM4 5HQ; Canadian children to North Pole, Canada, H0H 0H0; while Finnish children are luckier, since, by tradition, Santa’s home is right in their land, at Santa Claus Village, FIN-96930, Arctic Circle. This latter post office, located in Rovaniemi, receives thousands of visitors every year, especially in December.

Christmas mailboxes for letters addressed to Santa Claus…

In other countries, children attach their letters to a balloon and let it float off towards the North Pole, and in the past, it was also common to burn the letter in the home fireplace, allowing the ashes to fly in the wind all the way to their destination.

Today, most homes do not have fireplaces, and in our country there may not be much awareness of the children wishing to write to Santa, especially considering how busy postal workers already are at this time of year! For this reason, Holyarthas expanded its catalogue of Christmas items and created magical Santa mailboxes, letterboxes decorated with bright colours and festive ornaments, designed solely to receive letters addressed to Santa Claus.

How to Write a Letter to Santa Claus

A letter to Santa may well be a child’s first-ever letter. Especially today, in a world of constant, frantic communication, it is lovely to remind children that, before WhatsApp, emails, and chats, one could communicate with pen and paper. It should also be made clear that Santa is a traditionalist, and even in the internet age, he prefers to receive a handwritten letter, on a nice sheet of paper, perhaps decorated with drawings of Christmas trees and reindeer, preferably created by the child themselves.

However, festive decorations alone are not enough to enchant Santa. For him, the best Christmas adornments are children’s good deeds, which must be genuine, sincere, and come from the heart.

Christmas decorations and new ideas to help you festively decorate your home….

Let us not forget that Santa has a network of elves highly skilled at discovering whether a child has told the truth! These same elves will surely pay extra attention to children who, besides asking for toys and sweets, remember that Christmas is a time to be especially good, generous, and altruistic, and that Santa is pleased when asked to fulfil heartfelt wishes, to protect parents, grandparents, help less fortunate children, and all those who cannot spend Christmas with their families.

A letter to Santa should be written carefully, decorated with care, signed, and sent with a heart full of hope. Once written, it must be placed in the correct mailbox.
