Our projects. We are writing a letter

Good day! On New Year's Day, everyone believes in miracles. Children and adults wait for fairy tales and write letters to Santa Claus. Winter Wizard post offices operate not only in Moscow and Veliky Ustyug, but all over the world. On the eve of the New Year and Christmas and a few more weeks after the holidays, you can send letters with your cherished desires to any of them.

These are the German Vainachtsman, and the Finnish Jollopuki, and the French Pierre Noel, and the American Santa, and the Tatar Kysh-Babay and the Belarusian Dzed Maroz in Belovezhskaya Pushcha. In response, you may receive letters from Grandfathers in beautiful holiday envelopes, with postcards, and souvenirs. Or maybe your wish will come true.

Letters to New Year's wizards can be written in any language. Usually written in English or, ideally, in the language of the country of the imported Santa Claus. Let us tell you a few congratulatory phrases for Happy New Year and Merry Christmas: in Finnish— Hyvää Joulua ja Onnellista Uutta Vuotta!, in English— Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!, German— Fröhliche Weihnachten und ein schönes Neues Jahr!, in French- Joyeux Noël et Bonne Année!
In your message, do not forget to first say hello, congratulate Grandfather on the upcoming holiday, and tell him a little about yourself and your dreams. You can put your drawings or poems in the envelope. And only then ask for specific gifts and make wishes.
At the end of the letter and on the envelope, you must correctly indicate your full postal address with a zip code. Of course, if you want an answer. Some Santa Claus postal assistants do not rewrite the return address, but simply cut it out of the message and paste it onto the reply letter.

How to write a letter to Santa Claus correctly?

Detailed instructions for adults and kids - how to write a letter to Santa Claus so that he will fulfill your wish will definitely come in handy, because this is such an important event! As children, we believed in Santa Claus with pleasure, wrote letters to him, ordering gifts, or simply whispered before going to bed what we wanted to find under the Christmas tree on New Year's morning.

As we grew older, we became uninterested, how to write a letter to Santa Claus so that he would definitely read it and bring exactly the gift we wanted. We learned that our parents had been putting toys and sweets under the Christmas tree all this time and we stopped believing in miracles. But miracles have not stopped believing in us, and Santa Claus in distant Lapland (or where he lives there?) has not stopped waiting for our letters.

To write a letter to Santa Claus or not to write?

I know that to many people the topic of my article will seem strange and frivolous. They say that little children, not adults, need advice on how to write a letter to Santa Claus. But just because we grew up doesn’t mean that we have to stop believing in miracles. On the contrary, only with age did I begin to understand that too many things in this life work out as if by magic, especially if you really want it and believe in it with all sincerity. To write or not to write a letter to Santa Claus is a personal matter for everyone, of course. I'm not forcing you to do this. All the same, if you don’t believe in magic one bit, then it won’t be of any use. And yet, it seems to me that the topic of today’s article is quite relevant, because if you yourself do not need this knowledge, then you can always write a letter to Santa Claus together with your children, nephews, brothers, sisters, yes - with any kids.

When should you start writing a letter to Santa Claus?

Right now, at the beginning of winter, is the time to write and send a message to the kind grandfather. There is even such a holiday - International Day of Messages to Santa Claus. The main thing is not to leave everything to the last minute, otherwise the letter may simply not arrive. Imagine for a moment how many envelopes carrier pigeons carry into the fairytale forest. After all, all over the world, adults and children are waiting for gifts and miracles. You can write a personal letter yourself. Or persuade your kindergarten or school friends to write a collective message - then Grandfather Frost will definitely not forget to stop by the New Year's party and bring the ordered gifts and miracles in a huge red bag.

How to write a letter to Santa Claus from an adult

In order for your letter to Santa Claus to be useful and help you receive a gift, you need to write it correctly. Here are some tips for both kids and adults to help with writing a letter:

Start with a polite address and greeting:

“Hello, Dear Grandfather Frost!”, “Hello, dear Grandfather Frost.”

If you start demanding gifts from the first lines, the symbol of the New Year will probably be offended and ignore such an impudent appeal.

Do not forget about politeness when composing the further text of the letter.

Immediately after contacting, you can ask: “How are you doing?”, “How are you feeling?”, “How are you doing?”

You can congratulate Santa Claus on the upcoming holiday.

Let the fairy-tale character understand that he is dealing with a polite petitioner, and not with an ill-mannered extortionist.

Introduce yourself.

For example, “My name is Yulia, I’m 29 years old. I live in London. I run my own website called “Success Diary”.

Remember that there is only one Santa Claus, and there are many of you, so you should not retell your entire biography, starting from infancy; a few short sentences will be enough.

Nobody will read your 30-page essay “The Life and Work of Vasya Pupkin.”

Gradually begin to move on to requests for gifts.

Don't be greedy.

There is no need to make a 40-item list.

Remember the fairy tale about the goldfish and how the greedy old woman ended badly.

It’s better to ask for one thing, but important to you, than to list all the iPhones and Louboutins.

I would also advise adults not to demand certain things from Santa Claus, but to focus on something intangible and ask for a meeting with a good guy, the recovery of a close relative, etc.

Be sure to end your letter beautifully.

Thank the recipient for their attention, for spending time with you, and say goodbye.

I think every person, even fairy tale characters, would be pleased to receive such a beautiful letter into which they put their soul.

Text of a letter to Santa Claus from children

So, the pencils are sharpened, the markers play with multi-colored caps, and a new question arises: how to write to Santa Claus? About what? And so that there are no mistakes... Parents will come to the rescue here - they also wrote letters in childhood, so feel free to contact us.

For example, like this:

Hello, Santa Claus! Congratulations on the upcoming holidays! I know you have a lot of work, so I’ll write briefly: this year I tried, studied well and helped my mother. Sometimes I wasn't very good at being obedient. I guess half of me is disobedience. But I'm trying! Because I love my parents and grandmother very much. Santa Claus, please bring gifts to my parents and me! Thank you!

Dear Santa Claus, hello! I am very glad that the holidays will come soon and my mother and I will decorate the Christmas tree. I love tangerines and chocolate, apples and candies. But I have a real dream: I want a faithful friend - a dog. And so that mom always smiles. Thank you!

Can you imagine how happy Santa Claus will be when he receives a letter or postcard with the following poem:

Hello Dedushka Moroz

We are writing you a postcard.

We would like to wish you a Happy New Year

And give a smile!

You are very kind and funny,

Cheerful and funny.

We are together with our children

Let's sing a song for you.

About the fact that you are the most wonderful of all

You are a real holiday!

And you give happiness, children's laughter

With shiny wrapper!

Or like this:

Hurry to the Christmas tree, Santa Claus!

You are not tired and not cold.

After all, the sled is fast

They're taking you out of a fairy tale!

We'll tell you a nice poem,

And we'll sing a song about that

That you are the main gift for us

Hurry up, fly at full speed!

And yet, it is very important not to forget about rules for writing letters to Santa Claus:

Imagine for a moment: he is alone, but how many of us are there? Wow, how many! Of course, he has assistants: Snegurochka, Snowman and others. But still, the letter should be short and meaningful, and we’ll leave essays and dictations for school.
Don’t forget about politeness: be sure to use the magic words “thank you” and “please.”
And the most important rule: write only your deepest desire, don’t be shy! Santa Claus will definitely do it. Don’t repeat after your girlfriend or friend, invent and fantasize, don’t be afraid! Santa Claus first of all fulfills sincere and honest wishes!

Letter templates to Santa Claus

1. First you need to say hello. You can write in a letter “Hello, Grandfather Frost!”, “Good health, Grandfather Frost!” or simply “Hello, Grandfather Frost!” The main thing is in a polite manner.

2. Tell us a little about yourself. You need to introduce yourself, say your name, how old you are and what city you live in. You can write what you are interested in, what interesting things happened to you this year. Don't forget to inquire about the health of Grandfather Frost. It would be polite to thank him for last year's gifts.

3. Describe a few good things you have done over the past year, your dreams, or maybe even your secrets.

4. Now it’s time to ask for a gift and make wishes! It doesn't have to be something big or too expensive. Limit yourself to a list of two or three gifts. Think about your family and friends. Wish something good for them.

5. At the end of the letter, congratulate Grandfather Frost on the upcoming New Year and Merry Christmas. You can wish him “Good health”, “Happiness”, “Snowy winter”, “Fast horses”, “Intricate miracles”. You can also convey congratulations to the Snow Maiden and the postal snowmen. Then write your name or sign.

Example of a letter to Santa Claus

Good health, Grandfather Frost! My name is Masha, I am 7 years old. I live in Moscow, I study in the first grade at school. I enjoy dancing, playing music and playing my piano. This year I went to first grade for the first time. Now I have many new friends. School is interesting and fun. And during recess, they give us delicious pies at the buffet.

How is your health, Grandfather? I hope you're not complaining. Thank you for the beautiful doll under the tree last year. This is my favorite toy. I do well at school. We are not given grades yet, but we are given funny stickers for an excellent answer. I obey my mom and dad, my grandparents.

Dear Grandfather, I have long dreamed of a fluffy white puppy. I hope my dream will come true in the New Year. Also give my parents and grandparents lots and lots of health.

Grandfather Frost, Snow Maiden and magical helpers, I congratulate you all on the upcoming holidays - New Year 2018 and Merry Christmas! I wish you a snowy, happy winter and a cheerful mood. I'm waiting for you, Grandfather, to visit me.

Goodbye. Masha.

Without what is it impossible to write a letter to Santa Claus correctly?

It seems unfair to me to ask for something that is really important to you without promising anything in return. If you are really interested in how to write a letter to Santa Claus, promise him something in return for the gift he received:

to be obedient;
do not upset parents;
bring home only 10–12 points;
finally sign up for the gym;
stop gossiping and judging people;
help parents more and spend time with them;
start working 1 day a week in a volunteer organization;
donate a certain amount to charity, etc.

It is very important that you promise Santa Claus something corresponding to the value (literally or figuratively) of the ordered gift.

You cannot ask for a new car or the position of general director in a company where you work only as a secretary, and promise to move your grandmother across the street once.

Promise to translate grandmothers for a whole year.

This was indeed a serious promise, especially considering that my friend had been on good terms with cigarettes since school and, despite all the requests, did not want to give up her bad habit.

Now watch how the kids write and format a letter to Santa Claus. They know exactly how to properly ask for gifts from the winter wizard

Design of a New Year's letter for Santa Claus: ready-made samples and children's creativity

If you have time, energy and desire, then you can not just write a letter to Santa Claus, but turn it into a real work of art: decorate it with drawings, applications, poems and more. So, the text of the letter is ready, you’ve thought carefully about your cherished desire, and the next question arises - what to write on? After all, it’s somehow undignified to write such an important message on a notebook sheet with a square or a ruler, right? As always, our imagination will help us! The easiest option is to print out sample letters to Santa Claus.

But a cheerful multi-colored postcard made with your own hands is much more interesting! Therefore, we take our favorite materials and fantasize.

Funny cards for Santa Claus

For example, very beautiful ones are made from multi-colored cardboard, decorated with ordinary Christmas tree rain or simple cotton wool. We make a postcard from a sheet of cardboard and decorate it with cotton wool, rain and glue. It turns out to be a very elegant, festive card. Beads, pieces of fabric, nut shells and even a broken Christmas tree toy - all this can be useful for fun decoration.

Family message

You can make an important letter - a family message with a coat of arms and seal. Come up with a title for yourself, for example, let mom be the queen, dad be the king, and you be the prince or princess. Or a duke and a musketeer (do you remember that on New Year’s holidays everything is possible?) So, take a sheet of thin parchment paper (ask your mother) and write an elegant text in beautiful handwriting. But most importantly, don’t forget to put a stamp and draw the family coat of arms. Father Frost will be surprised and delighted when he receives a letter from the Duchess from Moscow!

Letter collage

If you don't like drawing, there is a wonderful way out - collage writing. To do this, you need to cut out beautiful pictures of children, Santa Claus, Christmas tree decorations and gifts from glossy magazines. And carefully stick it on the card. All! A bright and festive message is ready!

Design of envelopes and stamps

Envelopes for letters should also be beautiful and elegant. An excellent solution would be large colored envelopes, which are sold in bookstores. Be sure to write the address on the envelope and put a stamp on it. To make Santa Claus immediately pay attention to your letter, you can make a beautiful applique or come up with a magical New Year’s stamp that will differ from others in its unusual shape or bright color. You can see samples of stamps for letters to Santa Claus below:

Where to send the letter?

Now the final step remains: sending the letter. Where Santa Claus lives, no one, alas, knows. They write to him either in Lapland, or at the North Pole, or even send letters without an address.

You can proceed as follows:

Just write “Santa Claus” on the envelope and throw it in the mailbox. Let the Postal employees think about how to forward it to the addressee.
You can use this address that I found on the Internet: Santa Claus Mail
Verkhniy Ustyug
Russia
162390.
Or you can not send a letter at all in the literal sense of the word, but just write it and put it under the Christmas tree. Santa Claus is a fairy-tale hero, so he will know what you want so badly.
You can also send a message to Grandfather by email - [email protected]
If you really want, you can send a letter to Santa Claus (for example, if you want to show off your knowledge of English), who lives in Lapland - Santa Claus, Arctic Circle, 96930, Rovaniemi, Finland.

Write beautiful New Year's letters to Santa Claus and remember that sincere wishes always come true!

What do Muscovites most often ask from Santa Claus?

Children: mobile phones, tablets and other gadgets, dolls, cars, construction sets, bicycles, children's cosmetics for girls. Sometimes the requests are unusual - a ticket to a football match or a meeting with a famous artist.

Adults: apartment, health, job, husband or wife, child, million dollars, world peace.

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

Any child wants not only to believe that a gift is part of a fairy tale, but also to see the fairy tale itself, and ideally, to also participate in it.

Fortunately, in the modern world, where the needs of even the smallest members of society are given considerable attention, such an opportunity exists: these days you can write a letter to the real Santa Claus and even get an answer! If you want to give your child an unforgettable childhood, help him write a letter to Grandfather at least once, because he will not be able to find out about the child’s deepest wishes in any other way.

At the same time, 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!

Message structure

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

Such a wish can be described in one single sentence, but surely even small children, if they are truly well-mannered and good, will agree that it is hardly polite to write a letter consisting of one line, in which there is only a demand. It’s worth trying and writing a real letter, and if difficulties arise with his essay, follow the plan suggested below:

Every letter begins with greetings, which also includes a question about how the person receiving the letter is doing. Grandfather will probably be pleased with such attention, and he will try to please the author.
If your grandfather gave a gift last year, you should thank him for it.
Naturally, to maintain a conversation you need tell me a little about yourself- state your name and age, describe your activities and hobbies, and most importantly - talk about your behavior, which was good enough to qualify for a gift.
At the end of the letter, you need to briefly indicate what you would like to see under the tree on New Year's Day.
You can write wishes to Grandfather; he will be very pleased with them.
The rules for writing letters also include indicating the date at the very bottom.

But you should not perceive such mail as a boring adult letter, where there is nothing but text. Experts have calculated that Santa Claus's assistants in our country alone receive hundreds of thousands of letters from children every year, and it happens that the kind old man simply does not have time to read everything.

We must try to make sure that the letter is bright and stands out from others - for example, it was written in poetry, accompanied by a drawing made by hand, or was otherwise unusually designed.

Which sample should I focus on?

For those who want to design a message beautifully, but have not yet reached the level of serious creativity, you can use a ready-made template or form in which both the words and the design for the New Year’s letter are correctly selected.

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

Example 1

Dear Grandfather Frost, hello!

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

Last year you gave me an airplane. I played it all this year with my dad. Thank you very much for it!

Now I'm in third grade, I'm good at all subjects, except mathematics, but I'll try to improve next year.

In my free time, I really like to walk with my friends on the street, and my dad and I also really like to watch hockey on TV.

I really want to learn how to skate, but I don’t have any yet. Could you give them to me, Grandfather? I really believe that you will make my dream come true.

I wish you good health and good mood!

Example 2

Hello Dedushka Moroz!

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

I’m 8 years old and I’m in second grade, but it’s 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 wish. Next year I will try even harder so as not to let you down.

I wish you and your helpers a wonderful celebration of this New Year and cope with all the tasks that you always have before the holiday!

Classic letter in an envelope

Although modern technologies are increasingly spreading around the world, Grandfather Frost still comes from the old days, so the vast majority of letters to him are still delivered the old fashioned way - by regular mail. This way it’s clearer for him, and it’s easier for the sender to show his imagination and create a truly unique message.

However, in order for the result to really please Grandfather, you need to try.

It is important to follow a number of rules that will make the letter more interesting and attractive than that of other children.

We write by hand

Not all children can write beautifully, but here you have to try your best to write in large and neat letters - after all, grandfather is old, it will be difficult for him to make out sloppy scribbles.

In addition, he loves those children who made significant efforts to get good grades in school - but what kind of excellent or good student is he who cannot write beautifully? No, the winter wizard won’t believe in the child’s diligence and won’t send him a gift!

Even today, most children are more confident using a pen or pencil than a computer keyboard—at least when it comes to writing something. That is why so many New Year's letters are still written the old fashioned way - in capital letters.

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 is not very good if some words are crossed out and others are written above them - this complicates the task of reading what is written.

Where can I print it?

No matter how old Grandfather Frost is, technology has still touched him - he receives not only letters that are handwritten, but also those typed on a computer.

In addition, there are many ready-made forms, on top of which you just need to enter your text, and that’s it - a beautifully designed letter, in no way inferior to ancient 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 taken into account that a bright color image on a template will not look as interesting in black and white. That is why you need to make sure that the letter is printed on a color printer, which will allow you to convey all the colors.

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

The message will certainly look more believable if the text is not printed, but hand-scribbled by a child; in addition, a form of this type can quite easily be supplemented with the child’s original drawings, which will demonstrate the creativity of the little designer, turning the letter into an original sample through the efforts of the child.

How to decorate it beautifully?

A simple sheet of paper with letters may look normal only in the world of adults, and the attention of the fairy-tale Santa Claus can only be attracted by an unusually designed, truly beautiful and unique message.

Children, in any case, love to create, and in this case, they are given all the opportunities for creativity, especially since this directly determines whether Grandfather will appreciate the child’s efforts or not. There are a number of ways to achieve an unusual look for a letter addressed to Santa Claus.

Drawings

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

The drawing can be either completely separate and placed in an envelope along with the letter, or it can be drawn on the same page where the text is written, but in such a way as not to interfere with the reading of what is written.

You can even cut out a black and white outline, which will then be pasted onto a letter and painted by hand - this “coloring” will allow you to create an attractive drawing even for those kids who have difficulty drawing.

Applications

You can depict this or that 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 self-made applications from ordinary colored paper. These are used to decorate either the letter itself or the envelope in which it will be sent.

The applique can even be made convex - to do this, small pieces of paper are left outside the edges of each figure and rolled inward.

In this case, great attention must be paid to ensuring that the composition is glued firmly and does not break during shipment.

Collages

This is also a kind of application, but in some ways reminiscent of a montage from modern science fiction films.

Theoretically, you can combine anything, but most often they make clippings of photographs of the child who sent the letter, the gift he expects to receive, and Santa Claus himself. This is a clear hint to the wizard: this is what a child’s dream should look like!

Postcards

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

Of course, for such purposes it is better to choose a postcard whose image is already dedicated to winter or the New Year.

Which envelope should I buy?

There are no special requirements for the envelope in which the letter for Santa Claus will be sent, so you only need to start from what exactly will be sent in this envelope.

If the message does not contain any complex structures - for example, there is only one sheet of paper with a letter or the letter itself with a drawing, you can purchase a very ordinary envelope and send the message in this form.

It’s another matter if the sender tried and put his whole soul into the letter, adding crafts to the letter. In this case, you need to make sure that the child’s creative idea reaches the recipient in complete safety, because only in this way will the latter be able to appreciate it.

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

If the message contains complex appliqués or large collages that are undesirable to be folded to avoid breaking the structure, it is better to purchase just such an envelope.

Finally, you should also choose envelopes based on where the letter is being sent.

Most often, Russian children send a letter to the domestic Father Frost - then the message goes only through the territory of Russia and an internal Russian envelope is sufficient for it.

However, international Santa Claus is also very popular among Russian children, but he lives abroad, so the letter will reach him only if it is sent in an international envelope.

Addresses for sending letters

For Santa Claus

There is not a single exact indication as to where Grandfather Frost lives, because he is a character in a fairy tale, so you can only visit him theoretically. At the same time, he has quite a lot of assistants who will be happy to convey messages from children, so it is best to send a letter to them. But even such assistants are not located at any one point.

They say the easiest way is to simply write “Santa Claus” on the envelope, and experienced postmen themselves know where to deliver such mail. However, you still shouldn’t rely on chance in such important matters, so it’s better to know at least one of the addresses where the assistants of the main winter wizard are located.

For Russian children, an old and fairly well-known address is relevant: 162390, Russia, Vologda region, Veliky Ustyug, the house of Father Frost.

So many letters arrive there every year that the old man took care of creating another of his Russian “offices”, which will allow residents of Moscow and the Moscow region get an 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.

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.

After writing a letter, even to obvious scammers, nothing terrible will most likely happen, but in no case should you indicate your full name, exact address, or any other personal information that could be used for harm. It is possible that a “lighted” mailbox will be subject to increased attacks from spammers.

You should not indicate personal data in an email even if you are 100% sure that this site was not developed by scammers - Santa Claus has no use for them.

Communication channels on the World Wide Web are not always properly protected, so information can be stolen both from a website dedicated to the New Year holidays and at any point along the way to it.

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

Many are also captivated by the maximum simplicity of such communication with the winter wizard, because this requires absolutely nothing except a gadget connected to the Internet. Websites, as a rule, already have ready-made design samples - both visual and the text itself, where you only need to add personal data - the child’s name and age.

For such contact with a fairy tale, you don’t need to come up with anything special, you don’t even need pencils and envelopes, so this is the shortest path to success.

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

Modesty

Children want more of everything, and the concept of modesty is not always known to them. Santa Claus is a real wizard, he can do anything!

At the same time, we must not forget that greed is a character trait that does not make a person beautiful, and Grandfather may not like it, and then he will completely leave the author of the letter without a gift.

It’s better to show your good side and ask for one thing, but really important. Then grandfather and his assistants will have enough time to fulfill the wishes of the other children, and he will have no objections to making our letter writer happy.

Promise to behave

On the one hand, Santa Claus gives gifts to those children who have already deserved them, on the other hand, he is unlikely to be happy if the child, who has finally received the desired gift, decides that he can now stop following any rules and begins to behave like horrible.

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

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

Remember that Santa Claus cannot be deceived even unintentionally - he is a wizard!

The relationship between wishes and promises

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

It would be wrong to ask for a new gadget and at the same time promise to take your grandmother across the road once - it’s a completely different matter that such an “action” for a whole year could already cost quite serious gifts.

If the response letter has not arrived

Santa Claus sincerely tries to make all the children happy, but still he does not always manage to pay attention to everyone. This is not a reason to be upset, because perhaps he simply had too much to do and he will make up for it next year.

At the same time, this is also a reason to think: does the desire indicated in the letter exactly correspond 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 good wizard!

You can also learn how to write a beautiful letter to Grandfather Frost and what you will need for this by watching the video below.

New Year is the time of the most cherished desires. Children write various letters in the hope of receiving their dream gift. Different children have different desires and hopes. Each child has unique letters. Here are some examples of letters. Some children care not only about themselves, but also about everyone close to them. There are also those who do not ask for surprises in the hope that another baby, perhaps one who is on the other side of the Earth, will be happy.

Letter to Santa Claus - sample text

Hello Dedushka Moroz. My name is Vasya. I go to kindergarten and am already preparing for school. I've heard so much about you and read in books. My deepest desire is to see you on our Christmas tree, and I also want you to come to our home. We will decorate the most beautiful Christmas tree and celebrate the New Year. Please give me skis and a phone and candy. I want to learn to ski fast like my brother. He is the city champion in cross-country skiing.

See you soon, I wish you health and happiness.

“The best Grandfather Frost, my name is Maria. I'm 7 years old. You can bring me chess, a touchscreen phone with a case for it, and sandals.

Dear Grandfather Frost, I am really looking forward to your arrival. Before the New Year, together with my parents, I will decorate the Christmas tree, prepare a surprise for you and learn a poem. Next year I promise to study well, be polite and kind. I really want you to please me with sweets and a radio-controlled car. Dima.

“Dear and kind Grandfather Frost! You are the best. My name is Katya. I dream of learning to snowboard, but my parents can’t buy me one. Frost, please give me a snowboard. I don't swear and do all the assigned homework and even more. I, like you, love snow. But this year we don't have it. And if it’s not so difficult for you, grab a little snow too, so that the best holiday can pass like the most wonderful time. I really hope that the letter has reached you and am looking forward to seeing you. I wish you lots and lots of strength. Sincerely, Ekaterina!”

"Hello Dedushka Moroz. My name is Kirill. I am 8 years old. I love my parents, as well as football and walking. I know that you have a lot to do on New Year’s Eve, so if you can’t come to me with a gift and bring what I want, then it’s okay. Just know that this is who I am and I wish you a lot of strength to deliver gifts to the whole world in 6 hours. I hope that you will have time to please all the children. If you happen to come to me in time, I’ll be glad, and if not, I won’t be offended. I will know that the other baby got what he wanted. Merry Christmas! P.s., Kirill.”

“Good Grandfather Frost! My name is Vasya. I'm approaching my 5th year. We don't have a dad yet. I don’t ask you for a dad, because my mom is wonderful and will find us the best dad in the world later. And now I want a typewriter. I don’t ask my mother, because I’m a man and I shouldn’t ask my mother for such things. When I grow up, I’ll buy us cars – real ones. And now I find out the device of the machine. Therefore, please give me a machine that is controlled by remote control. P.s., Vasily.”

"Hello Dedushka Moroz! My name is Tolya. I'm 6 years old. This year I went to first grade. I really hope it's not too cold in your north. My dad and mom and I will soon rush to you, we will live next door. My parents are the coolest, so I don’t need gifts. I want to ask you just one thing. Can you give me a warm fur coat? I love snow and skating rinks, but I get cold very quickly. And my mother rarely lets me go outside. And all the guys are hanging out there. And I want to join them too. Please help me. I promise to study well and obey my parents, just to go out with friends. I wish you a lot of strength to distribute gifts to everyone. With respect, Tolik!”

Letters can be written on different papers, different colors of markers, pens and pencils. The letters are also decorated with homemade drawings and appliqués.

On New Year's Eve, children from different countries write letters to Santa Claus. Read one of them.

Lisa lit the table lamp and sat down to write a letter. The most important letter for the whole year is a letter to Santa Claus.
“Dear Grandfather Frost. I study well, try to obey my mother, brush my teeth and even eat oatmeal. Grandfather, I really love strawberries. And if it’s not difficult for you, then please send me a basket of strawberries for the New Year. You can do anything! Thank you . Lisa".
Lisa sealed the letter in an envelope and put it in the mailbox.
Grandfather Frost read the letter, smiled, stroking his beard.

1. Finish the story: what events could have taken place in the kingdom of Santa Claus? What did Lisa find under the Christmas tree on New Year's Eve?

There was little time left before the New Year, and Santa Claus began collecting gifts for Lisa. He put toothpaste, a box of oatmeal, and a jar of strawberry jam in the bag. And on top he placed a whole basket of ripe sweet strawberries. All we have to do is wait for New Year's Eve...
On the morning of January 1, Lisa saw something turning red under the tree, she came closer and found the treasured gift. And next to it lay a postcard: “Dreams come true!”

2. Have you ever written a letter to Santa Claus? Have your wishes come true?
3. What letter to Santa Claus or Snow Maiden have you already written or would like to write this year? If it's not a secret, tell us about your desires.

Write your letter to Santa Claus.

Hello Dedushka Moroz!
Happy New Year!
This year I tried, studied well, helped my mother.
At school I don’t have a single comment on my behavior, but at home I need to ask my mother...
I have a cherished dream: I really want to make a friend - a red kitten.
If you fulfill my wish, I will be very happy.
Goodbye, grandpa!
With love from Russia.
