How to write a letter to Santa Claus and which template to navigate?

The most gorgeous gift for any child is to give him the opportunity to at least briefly get into a fairy tale. Despite the fact that kids receive presents from their parents all the time, they value those received from Santa Claus the more.

Fortunately, in the modern world where considerable attention is paid to the needs of even the smallest members of society, this possibility exists: nowadays you can write a letter to real Santa Claus and even get an answer! If you want to give your child an unforgettable childhood, help him at least once to write a letter to Grandpa, because he will not be able to learn about the most intimate wishes of a child anyway.

Moreover, such an important letter cannot be written at random - there are a number of rules that will increase the chances that the real Santa Claus will read it!

Theoretically, the point of sending a letter is for a kind grandfather to bring to the children, who were obedient for a whole year, exactly the gifts they want.

Such a wish can be described in one single sentence, but surely even small children, if they are really well-mannered and good, will agree that it is hardly polite to write a single-line letter with only a requirement. It is worth trying and writing a real letter, but if it is difficult to compose with his work - to be guided by the plan proposed below:

1. Any letter starts with greetings which also provides for the question of how is the person receiving the letter. Grandfather would surely be pleased with such attention, and he will try to please the author.
2. If the grandfather gave a gift last year, you should thank him for that.
3. Naturally, to keep the conversation going tell a little about yourself - give your name and age, describe your activities and hobbies, and most importantly - tell about your behavior, which was good enough to qualify for a gift.
4. At the end of the letter you need to briefly indicate what we would like to see under the tree in the New Year.
5. You can write wishes to Grandpa, they will be very pleasant to him.
6. The rules for writing letters also provide an indication of the date at the bottom.

But do not take this mail as a boring adult letter, where there is nothing but text. Experts felt that Santa's helpers in our country alone receive hundreds of thousands of letters from children every year, and it happens that the good old man just does not have time to read everything.

For those who want to make a message beautifully, but have not yet grown to serious work, you can use a ready-made template or a form in which both words and design for the New Year's Eve letter are correctly chosen.

There are dozens of such options, but all of them, whatever one may say, are just a copy, and a truly touching message will come out only if the child has put his own soul into it, even if it does not resemble an aesthetic masterpiece. The main thing - the sincerity and truthfulness of the written.

You can still give a few examples to give kids a guide on how to express in ordinary words everything that is needed to make a dream come true.

Dear Grandfather Frost, hello!

My name is Misha, I am 9 years old, I am from the city of Tula.

Last year you gave me a plane. I played it all this year with my dad. Thank you so much for him!

Now I am in the third grade, all subjects are given to me well, except for mathematics, but I will try to improve next year.

In my free time, I love to go out with friends on the street, and dad and I love to watch hockey on TV.

I really want to learn how to skate, but I don’t have them yet. Could you give them to me, Grandpa? I really believe that you will fulfill my dream.

I wish you good health and good mood!

Misha, December 5, 2016.

Hello Dedushka Moroz!

How are you doing, Grandpa? Masha from Nefteyugansk is writing to you.

I am 8 years old, and I go to the second class, but we are very cold here, so I wanted to ask you for a big beautiful hat!

I behaved very well all year, and my mother said that for this you will fulfill my desire. Next year I will try even more to not let you down.

I wish you and your assistants to celebrate this New Year perfectly and to cope with all the tasks that you always have before the holiday!

Obedient girl Masha, November 27, 2017.

Although modern technologies are increasingly spreading around the world, Grandfather Frost still comes from old times, so the absolute majority of letters for him are still delivered in the old fashioned way - ordinary mail. It is also clearer to him, and it is easier for the sender to show imagination and create a truly unique message.

However, so that the result really pleased Grandfather, you need to try.

Not all children can write beautifully, but here we must try our best to write in large and neat letters - the grandfather is an old one, it will be difficult for him to make out sloppy scribbles.

In addition, he loves those children who have made significant efforts to get good grades at school - what kind of an excellent student or a good person who cannot write beautifully? No, so the winter wizard will not believe in the diligence of the child and will not send him a gift!

Even today, most children are more confident with a pen or pencil than with a computer keyboard - at least in the situation when you need to write something. That is why so many pre-New Year letters are still composed in the old manner - in the capital version.

The same applies to errors with blots. You need to think carefully about what will be written in the message, and try to write all the words correctly. It’s not very good if some words are crossed out, and others are written over them - this complicates the task of reading the written.

No matter how old Grandfather Frost is, the technologies still touched him - he receives not only those letters written by hand, but also those typed on the computer.

In addition, there are many ready-made forms, on top of which you just need to enter your text, and all - a beautifully designed letter, not inferior to the old letters from fairy tales, is ready.

Unfortunately, such a design is unlikely to be truly original, but if you search for a long time, you may be able to find something unusual.

It should be borne in mind that the bright color image on the template will look not so interesting in black and white. That is why you need make sure that the letter was printed on a color printer, which will allow you to transfer the full colors.

By the way, the color version can be printed out and without text, remaining a blank form until the moment when text is manually applied to it.

The message will most likely look more plausible if the text is not printed, but manually scrawled by a baby; In addition, a form of this type can be quite easily supplemented with the author's drawings of the child, which will allow to demonstrate the creativity of the little designer by turning the letter into an original sample through the efforts of the child.

A simple sheet of paper with letters can look normal except in the adult world, and only an unusually decorated, truly beautiful and unique posting can attract the attention of fabulous Santa Claus.

Children, in any case, love to create, and in this case all opportunities for creativity are given to them, especially since it directly depends on whether the grandfather will appreciate the baby’s efforts or not. There are a number of ways to achieve an unusual type of letter addressed to Santa Claus.

The simplest and most obvious option is to supplement the written text with baby drawings. In this case, the image must be colorful and bright, to touch the themes of winter, snow, New Year and Santa Claus.

A drawing can be either completely separate and invested in an envelope along with a letter, or it can be drawn on the same page where the text is written, but so as not to interfere with the reading.

It is possible to portray one or another winter or New Year's scene not only with the help of paints or pencils, but also with the help of cut out pictures from magazines or even independently made applications from ordinary colored paper. Those decorate either the letter itself, or an envelope in which it will be sent.

The application can even be made convex - for this, small pieces of paper are left outside the edges of each figure, which are wrapped inside.

This is also a kind of application, but somewhat reminiscent of the montage of modern science fiction films.

Theoretically, you can combine anything, but most often they make clippings of photos of the child who sent the letter, the gift he expects to receive, and Santa Claus himself. This is an obvious hint to the wizard: this is what the baby dreams of!

It is not necessary to write a letter either on a blank sheet or on a printed sheet, which was originally intended for these purposes. A beautiful card can also quite successfully cope with the function of the basis for a message - you just need to write the same text on it as in a regular letter.

Of course, for such purposes it is better to choose the postcard, the image on which is already devoted to winter or New Year.

There are no special requirements for the envelope in which the letter for Santa Claus will be sent, does not exist, so you only need to build on what is sent in this envelope.

If there are no complicated constructions in the message - for example, there is only one sheet with a letter or the letter itself with a picture, you can purchase the most ordinary envelope and send a message in this form.

Another thing, if the sender tried and put all his soul into the letter, adding crafts to the letter. In this case, you need to take care that the child’s creative design in full safety reaches the addressee, because only this way the latter will be able to appreciate it.

There are large format envelopes - in particular, specially designed for A4 sheets.

Finally, it is also worth choosing envelopes according to where the letter is sent.

Most often, Russian children send a letter to the domestic Santa Claus - then the message goes only through the territory of Russia and there is enough internal Russian envelope for it.

Nevertheless, the international Santa Claus enjoys considerable popularity among Russian children, and he lives abroad, so the letter will reach him only if it is sent in an internationally enveloped envelope.

There is not a single precise indication as to where Santa Claus lives, because he is a fairy tale character, therefore, theoretically, you can only visit him. At the same time, he has quite a few assistants who will be happy to send messages from children, so it is best to send a letter to them. But such helpers are not at any one point.

They say the easiest way is to just write “Santa Claus” on the envelope, and experienced postmen themselves know where to send such mail. However, it’s still not worth relying on such important matters, so it’s better to know at least one of the addresses where the assistants to the main winter wizard are located.

There are so many letters every year that the old man took care of creating another Russian “office” that would allow residents of Moscow and the Moscow region get the answer a little faster. For those who live in this region, it is recommended to write to the following address: 109472, Moscow, Kuzminsky Forest, Grandfather Frost.

Also in Russia you can send letters to the following addresses:

• 186000, Republic of Karelia, Olonets, ul. Svir Divisions, 1;
• St. Petersburg, Shuvalovka, "Russian Village";
• 109472, Moscow, Kuzminsky Forest.

If you want to contact not with the domestic Santa Claus, but with Santa Claus, you will have to try. The fact is that Finland (Lapland) was chosen as the country for its official stay, so you will need to buy a special international envelope. Although Santa's Finnish assistants are ready to receive correspondence from all corners of the globe, they may have problems with knowledge of the Russian language, and even Finnish postmen.

If there is confidence in your own good knowledge of English, write to the following address: Santa Claus Main Post office Santa's Workshop Village Arctic circle 96930, Rovaniemi Finland.

You can also send a letter to other countries, for example:

• In Belarus: Residence of Santa Claus, 225063 p. Kamenyuki, Kamenets district, Brest region, Belovezhskaya Pushcha, Belarus;
• In Ukraine: Santa Claus Post, ul. Khreshchatyk, 22, Kiev, Ukraine;
• In Germany: An den Weihnachtsmann, Weihnachtspostfiliale, 16798 Himmelpfort, Deutschland or Weihnachtsfiliale, der Deutschen Post, 31137 Himmelsthur, or An den Nikolaus, Nikolausdorf, 49681 Garrel, Deutschland;
• In France: Père Noël, Rue des nuages, Pole Nord, 33504 Libourne, France;
• In Canada: Santa Claus, North Pole Hoh Oho, Canada;
• In the USA: Santa Claus, Indiana 47579, USA;
• In Austria: Santa Claus, Osterreich (Austria), 4411 Christkidl;
• In Norway: Julenissen, 1440 Drobak, Norway;
• In Australia: Santa Claus, Christmastown, North Pole, 9999 Australia;
• In Moldova: Academia lui Mos Craciun, str. Dimo 17/4, Chisinau, MD-2068, Moldova;
• In Hungary: Mikul as, 2425 Nagykar acsony, Hungary;
• In Lithuania: Kaledu Seneliui - UAB DEGRIS - J. Kubiliaus g. 18 - Vilnius LT-09108 - Lietuva
• In New Zealand: Santa Claus, Santa's Workshop - North Pole 0001 - New Zealand;
• In the Czech Republic: Cesk "y Jez" isek, Boz "i Dar 1, Boz" i Dar 362 62, Czech Republic;
• In Switzerland: Samichlaus, Chiasso 6830, Schweiz.

If you really want Santa Claus to read the message personally and fulfill it himself, it is advisable to send a letter in advance, because every year a great number of letters come to him.

Some people start writing in November, although for those who live close to Veliky Ustyug, the first days of December are considered the most optimal time of departure. But those who did not have time to do it on time should not despair - if you really believe in a fairy tale, then believe in it until the end!

Of course, if you want to get a real response from Grandfather with a special stamp, you should consider how the domestic mail works:

• For residents of Moscow and the region, having sent a letter to an address near Moscow, delivery back and forth may take a matter of days, but assistants still need time to deliver the message to Grandfather himself.
• For those, who from the European part of Russia writes in the Vologda region, the waiting time can be one to two weeks.
• Residents of Siberia and the Far East it is better not to expect a quick response and focus on terms of two to four weeks.

Some do not send a letter to Santa Claus at all, limited to writing only. In the end, this wizard is a fairy-tale character, and although he cannot read the child’s thoughts, it is not difficult for him to find the children's message under the New Year tree and read it.

Numerous assistants of Santa Claus in his "offices" work tirelessly so that everyone who wants can receive a response in a timely manner.

Fortunately, not all children's letters suggest an answer - most of the kids are limited to just asking for their dream to come true. Nevertheless, the assistants of the main New Year's wizard have to respond to thousands of letters every year.

Getting an answer depends not only on the work of the post office, which we have already mentioned above, but also on how quickly the Santa Claus office will respond.

If the letter reaches the address at the end of November or at the beginning of December, when there are still not very many letters, chances are high that the message will be read on the day of arrival, they will immediately write an answer and send it back.

As for the peak days immediately preceding the New Year, during this period, assistants receive tens of thousands of letters daily, and they, of course, do not have time to read them all at once. Thanks to this, the number of unread correspondence is gradually increasing every day, and it begins to decrease only just before the New Year, when the number of new correspondence is finally slowly decreasing. Consequently, the later the letter was sent, the more time would pass between sending the letter and receiving a reply.

Many parents write a letter from Santa Claus on their own or make it as a backup in case this letter does not have time to come to the holiday.

Even a character like Santa Claus has to retreat from his usual messages and pay tribute to modern technologies, so nowadays it’s not just typing the text of a letter on a computer and then printing to send, but also sending an old email to the old man!

There are quite a few sites for this, new ones appear every year, everyone tries to stand out from the rest, offering an interesting design of the templates.

At the same time, Roskomnadzor draws the attention of users to the fact that the World Wide Web is a space in which there is always a risk of encountering intruders.

In fact, even explicit scammers do not worry about writing a letter; most likely, nothing will happen, but in no case No need to specify your full name, exact address, as well as any other personal information that may be used to harm. It is possible that the "illuminated" mailbox will be subjected to enhanced attacks by spammers.

Specifying personal data in an email is not worth it even if there is one hundred percent certainty that this site is not designed by fraudsters - they do not need Santa Claus.

However, it is the online versions of the letters that are the fastest growing in terms of the number of shipments to Santa Claus. There are several reasons for this, and first of all - quick response, because the e-mail message is delivered in seconds, which means that you can often get feedback on the same day.

Many are also captivated by the maximum simplicity of such communication with the winter wizard, because you do not need absolutely nothing, except for a gadget connected to the Internet. As a rule, websites already have ready-made design patterns - both visual and text itself, where you need to add only personal data - the child’s name and age.

For such a contact with a fairy tale you don’t need to invent something special, you don’t even need pencils and envelopes, so this is the shortest way to achieve success.

Finally, look at a few tips that will help create a letter that has been sustained in almost an “adult” style, make it more elegant and interesting, which will further increase the likelihood of fulfillment of a wish.

Children want everything and more, and they do not always know the concept of modesty. Santa Claus is a real magician, he can do everything!

In this case, we must not forget that greed is a trait of character that does not make a person beautiful, and Grandpa may not like it, and then he will leave the author without a gift at all.

It is better to show yourself on the good side and ask for one thing, but really important. Then the grandfather and his assistants will have enough time to fulfill the wishes of other children, and he will not find objections to bringing happiness to our author.

On the one hand, Santa Claus presents gifts to children who have already earned them, on the other hand, he is unlikely to be happy if the child who finally got the desired gift decides that you can now stop following any rules and start acting like horrible.

It is assumed that the baby, who is counting on a gift from Santa Claus, will promise something in return. If there is, where to strive, you need to promise to do everything possible to make it even better next year. If now everything is fine, you need to make a promise and in the future not to lower the bar high.

You need to be obedient, help your parents, do not offend the younger ones, study well and so on. And of course, keep these promises.

Promises must at least approximately correspond to the wishes. If the gift is expensive and unusual, then the baby should promise to do something that makes it worthy of such a valuable gift.

It would be wrong to ask for a new gadget and at the same time promise to transfer the grandmother across the road once - it is quite another thing that such an “action” for the whole year could have cost quite serious gifts.

Santa Claus sincerely tries to make all the children happy, but still he does not always manage to turn his attention to everyone. This is no reason to be upset, because he may have just had too much to do, and he will compensate for everything next year.

At the same time, it is also a reason to think: is it true that the desire indicated in the letter corresponds to the level of behavior of the author of the message?

The second option is to make a response letter from Santa Claus yourself. Surely you can write it even better than our kind magician!
