How to get a Letter From Santa Postmaked From the North Pole (FREE)



Nothing  gets kids in spirit of Christmas than a letter from the big guy himself postmarked  all the way from the North Pole.  Whether you have an Elf  who has been reporting back to Santa or your kids are awaiting a reply to their letter to Santa, you can have a letter sent to your Christmas angels postmarked North Pole via the United States Post Office.
Because the post office believes in Santa (haven’t you ever seen Miracle on 34th Street?) it offers this service for free (well, you do have to pay postage…)
  1. Here’s how “Letters From Santa” works:
    1. Write a letter to your child from Santa Claus and sign it “From Santa.”
    2. Insert the letter into an envelope addressed to your child with the return address: SANTA, NORTH POLE.
    3. Ensure a First-Class Mail stamp is affixed to the envelope.
    4. Place the envelope into a larger envelope, with appropriate postage, and address the larger envelope to:                                                     NORTH POLE POSTMARK
                                       POSTMASTER
                                       4141 POSTMARK DR
                                       ANCHORAGE, AK 99530-9998
    5. Your letter “From Santa” will be mailed back to your child, postmarked from the North Pole.
Letters from Santa must be received by the nchorage, AK, Postmaster no later than Dec. 15, 2015. Santa’s helpers in Anchorage, AK, will take care of the rest!
Be sure to share the experience on social media using #LettersFromSanta. 
Please Share your letters with us!! 
Merry Christmas !!


Tips:


  • To save paper, write on the back of your child’s letter. If you keep them together, your child will also be able to recall what he or she wrote.
  • When responding as Santa, make the response as personal as possible by highlighting your child’s accomplishments over the past year. For example, helping around the house, receiving good grades in a particular subject at school or participating in community service activities.
  • This is a great activity for Thanksgiving that the whole family can enjoy, including parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles and other caregivers.
