Writing a letter to Santa is a cherished holiday tradition in many households. It sparks excitement, fuels imagination, and—let’s be honest—gives “Santa” a helpful glimpse at what should be added to the shopping list!
For many families, the holiday spirit begins the moment toy catalogues start showing up in the mailbox. These colourful pages offer a peek at new and interesting toys, and kids love flipping through to find the items that excite them most. The tradition also brings back nostalgic memories for grown-ups who once circled their own dream gifts in classics like the Sears Wishbook.
To make the tradition simple and fun, we have created a free printable letter to Santa has been created for families to download and use. The design is inspired by doodle books—open-ended, creative, and easy for younger children to fill, colour, or decorate. Kids can draw, write, or even glue in pictures cut from toy catalogues. The only essential detail? Adding their name so Santa knows who the wish list belongs to.
