ThinkabaraHow to make the magic last
A letter from Santa works best when it mentions something only Santa could know: the day your child shared a toy, finished a tricky puzzle or helped a grandparent. Add one real detail in each box and the letter turns into a keepsake kids hold on to for years.
Pair it with our official Nice List certificate and a wish list your child writes back to Santa — then follow his sleigh on Christmas Eve with the Santa tracker.
Questions & answers
Is the letter from Santa really free?
Yes. Fill in the details, print as many letters as you like — no sign-up, no email, no watermark. Nothing you type is sent to us.
What should I write in the letter?
Use something real and specific: a kind thing your child did, something new they learned, their wish and a pet or sibling’s name. Small true details are what make kids believe Santa really was watching.
How do I make it look like it came from the North Pole?
Print on cream or parchment paper, fold it in thirds, and put it in an envelope addressed “From: Santa Claus, North Pole.” A little glitter or a candy cane in the envelope helps!
Can my child color the letter?
Yes — pick the “Kids can color it” look and the border, hat and drawings print as line art.
When should the letter arrive?
Many families put it out in early December, the morning after the child posts their own letter to Santa, or on Christmas morning next to the stockings.
