Dear Santa - An Open Letter To Santa

Dear Santa, All I Want For Christmas
When I hear the words Dear Santa, many things come to mind. Little kids clutching their pencils as they write their letters, old movies where some little kid prays for something for someone else, and my own memories of pouring over the catalogues as I wrote my own letter to Santa.
What would you like to ask Santa for this year? Anything special? If you could say anything to Santa ~ what would you say? You can write your Christmas wishlist here, take the polls to see if you have been naughty or nice, and who you want to include in your letter. Have fun as you think of what to write after the Dear Santa part and get some gift ideas too, like maybe some very useful and needed items for the homeless. Santa needs our help to remember everyone's wishes.
Santa List
letter to Santa ready to fill in with your wishlist
As kids, we wanted toys, never socks or shoes, or new clothes. Well, most kids only wanted toys. Adults still want toys, but different kinds, but they also ask for things for others, or they give more than they receive.

9 Year Old's Letter to Santa
cute Santa letter and talks about her Elf On The Shelf
Dear Santa,Frankie (my elf) has been so many places I couldn't find him. Santa what are the reindeers names? And are you friends with the tooth fairy, because if you are tell him or her I lost my tooth last Saturday. How many elfs do you have in your factory? And do you have firefighter elfs? How many houses do you go to? Do you ever forget to go to one house at all? Do you keep all the lists that you make every year if you do check if my brother Issac's on the naughty list.
Thank you for all the gifts you gave me for 8 years.
Love, Soleil

Dear Santa Claus, This Year I'd like...
What would YOU like for Christmas this year?
Tell Santa what you'd like this year. Have you been naughty or nice? You can use this to practice for your real letter to Santa.
If you want him to bring something to someone else...go ahead and tell him. Unfortunately Santa has never been able to bring "Peace on Earth and Goodwill to Men"....but hey, it never hurts to ask :)

Dear Santa, What I want this year is a job. Being unemployed was nice for awhile, but now I really need a regular paycheck. Do you think your elves could whip up a cool new job for me? I'd be very grateful. Thanks, Santa!

Did You Have Fun Writing YOUR Letter To Santa?
let us know what kind of letter you'll be writing Santa all comments welcome
Letters to Santa are part of Christmas traditions, and I hope you had fun with the quizzes and writing your own Dear Santa letter. I am wondering if I should get a couple of those cards that say...".But I can explain" and give them to a few people. But what about you? What kind of letter will you be writing...were you good all year, or mostly good?

- I couldn't get the module above to accept my letter to Santa, so I will leave my sentiments here:
Dear Santa: There really isn't a thing I need for Christmas. All I want is the wisdom to know where I can best be of service to others and the heart to offer Christmas to those with unmet needs (all throughout the New Year). Please give my gifts to someone who needs a little extra TLC this year. Thank you for spreading such magic and delight! What would you like for Christmas, Santa?

- Kathy, what a wonderful lens. It's fun and interactive, you can be silly or serious. But it still points to what is most important at Christmas and all year round - to appreciate friends, family, and the gifts we already have. I love Linus' Christmas monologue. Merry Christmas to you, friend.
