Santa Writes Back!


      If children should write to Santa with such ardent devotion, it seems only right and proper that he would write them back after a brief but productive visit to their home. Santa can leave this little "thank you" a holiday observation of his own after consuming cookies and milk. He will, of course, use an old-fashioned quill pen in order to write the note properly, "Santa style." This letter will make a charming addition to your child's scrap book. Your little ones can then look back on many a past Christmas and read about their wishes and special family memories. Include snap-shots of their tree, pet, and surprised expressions as they tear into gifts, giggle at the breakfast table and prepare for that special Christmas event at church.

Letters to Santa 100 Years Ago

These little letters to Santa were sent by their parents to the Monroe City Democrat on December 13, 1900. I thought my readers might like to read about what children wished to receive from Santa over 100 years ago in this country.
The above letters appeared in the Mexico Missouri Message on December 10, 1914.
