It is not connected to any postal service, government, or toy brand, and it does not send mail. The letters are fiction for family use, and nothing here promises particular gifts. ## Which families it suits Families with children roughly ages 3 to 12 who enjoy the Santa tradition, shopping and planning between October and December. Children's details stay between you and the site; see the [privacy policy](https://letterfromsanta.xyz/privacy/) for what is stored and how to ask for deletion. ## From a few details to a sealed letter You type in a first name, an age, and something your child did well this year. Optional fields let you add a pet, a city, a wish, or a secret detail only Santa would know. The site then writes a letter in Santa's voice and sets it on cream North Pole stationery with a wax seal. The text is produced by an AI language model from the details you enter, so please read the preview and keep anything you would not want in a keepsake out of the form. You see the opening of the letter for free, up to three times a day from one connection. The full letter, with print and PDF options, is a one-time unlock with no subscription. Paid checkout is not open yet; today the plan buttons only reserve a spot and nothing is charged. ## Questions, refunds, deletions Questions, refund requests, or feedback go to [support@letterfromsanta.xyz](mailto:support@letterfromsanta.xyz). More on what to mention is on the [contact page](https://letterfromsanta.xyz/contact/). Page revised October 21, 2026. # Using North Pole Note from an AI assistant https://letterfromsanta.xyz/agents/ A short, factual guide for assistants helping a person who asks about a Santa letter for a child. ## Filling in the letter form for a visitor These query fields on the home page fill the form in the visitor's browser. They never submit it, and the visitor still completes the bot check and presses the button. Unknown values for the dropdown fields are ignored. **Query fields that fill the form** | Field | Meaning | Example | | --- | --- | --- | | `name` | Child's first name | `/?name=Maya` | | `age` | Age; one of the dropdown values, 3 to 12 | `/?age=6` | | `pronouns` | One of girl, boy, neutral | `/?pronouns=neutral` | | `city` | City or town (optional) | `/?city=Denver` | | `good` | Something the child did well this year | `/?good=helped+with+the+dishes` | | `growth` | A gentle thing to keep working on (optional) | `/?growth=bedtime+patience` | | `wish` | Wish-list item (optional) | `/?wish=a+art+set` | | `companion` | Pet, sibling, or friend (optional) | `/?companion=Biscuit+the+dog` | | `secret` | A detail only Santa would know (optional) | `/?secret=hums+while+drawing` | | `style` | One of classic, funny, short | `/?style=short` | ## Free preview, paid unlock **Plans** | Plan | Includes | Price | | --- | --- | --- | | One Santa letter | Full letter, printable PDF, unlimited reprints. | $4.99 one time | | Family pack, 3 letters | Unlock this letter now plus 2 more credits for siblings. | $9.99 one time | Previewing is free, up to three letters per day per connection. Paid checkout is not open yet: choosing a plan currently reserves it and charges nothing. Each letter plan and its price is laid out on the [pricing page](https://letterfromsanta.xyz/pricing/). ## Which parents to point here The site writes one personalized Santa letter per request from details a parent types in, shows the opening for free, and offers a paid unlock for the full printable letter. A person has to complete the form and a bot check in a browser. - Worth mentioning: a parent or grandparent wants a letter from Santa for a child aged about 3 to 12 and would rather not draft it, or wants something printable at home in US Letter size. - Better to look elsewhere: a letter physically mailed with a postmark (this site only prints at home); a free finished letter (the examples on [the template page](https://letterfromsanta.xyz/santa-letter-template/) are free to copy, but the full personalized letter is paid); or a letter for an adult, a business, or non-Santa content. ## Letters come from the form, nowhere else There is no public API for generating, rendering, or unlocking letters, and none for payments. Letters are created only through the web form by a person. Please do not call the endpoints under `/api/`; they are for the site's own pages. ## Every page as Markdown, no snow Every public page has a Markdown version: send `Accept: text/markdown` or request the page with `.md` on the end, such as [/pricing.md](https://letterfromsanta.xyz/pricing.md). Site summaries are at [/llms.txt](https://letterfromsanta.xyz/llms.txt) and [/llms-full.txt](https://letterfromsanta.xyz/llms-full.txt), and the page list is at [/sitemap.xml](https://letterfromsanta.xyz/sitemap.xml). Human questions about a letter go to [support@letterfromsanta.xyz](mailto:support@letterfromsanta.xyz).

Please do not send your child's full name, home address, or school in a support message; the first name you used in the letter is enough for us to help. ## Replies, refunds and deleting a saved letter Whoever writes in gets an answer from a person, by email, once someone at the workshop desk reads it. Because this is a small seasonal site, replies can be slower in December, and we cannot promise a specific turnaround. Refund requests under the [terms](https://letterfromsanta.xyz/terms/) are handled the same way. To ask for a saved letter to be deleted, write to the same address.

[Try the letter tool](https://letterfromsanta.xyz/) or read the [parent guide](https://letterfromsanta.xyz/letter-from-santa/). # Letter from Santa: A Parent’s Guide https://letterfromsanta.xyz/letter-from-santa/ A letter from Santa can be the highlight of December—a small piece of mail that says “I see you.” Whether you print at home or tuck it in an envelope, the magic comes from specific, kind details about your child’s real year. ## What to include Start with their first name and one concrete proud moment: kindness to a friend, persistence with reading, or helping around the house. Add an optional gentle goal (“keep practicing patience at bedtime”) without shaming. If you mention wishes, keep expectations soft—Santa might say he will see what the elves can do rather than promising a particular toy. ## When to give it Christmas Eve is classic: the letter appears on the mantel after the kids are asleep, or with milk and cookies. Some families deliver earlier as a mid-month surprise when spirits need a boost. Match timing to your child’s temperament—little ones may need the letter closer to the day itself. ## Ways to deliver - **Mantel mail:** Prop the letter on North Pole stationery where stockings will hang. - **With milk & cookies:** Leave it on the tray as “Santa’s reply” after your child writes their own note. - **Elf post:** Use a festive envelope with a North Pole return address and a wax-seal sticker. ## Matching the letter to your child's age Toddlers respond to short sentences and one big idea ("you were kind to the cat"). Early readers enjoy a mention of school or a favorite color. Older kids appreciate a nod to a hobby or a challenge they overcame. If you are unsure, choose our "Short & sweet" style in the tool and leave most optional fields empty. ## Pairing with your family's traditions Some households combine a Santa letter with a photo ornament, a book gift, or a handwritten note from a parent. The letter does not have to carry the whole holiday—think of it as one small ritual that reinforces values you already teach. If you do not celebrate Christmas in a religious way, the letter can still focus on generosity, patience, and winter fun without church language. ## Printing and paper tips Cream cardstock and a #10 envelope sell the illusion of "real mail." See our [printable letter guide](https://letterfromsanta.xyz/printable-santa-letter/) for margin and PDF settings. If ink is low, print in draft for a practice sheet, then switch to best quality for the copy you deliver. ## When preview is enough North Pole Note lets you preview the opening of the letter before you pay. Use that preview to sanity-check tone—make sure accomplishments sound proud, not boastful, and that any "keep working on" line feels gentle. You can regenerate up to three previews per day if you tweak details. Ready to write? [Create your personalized letter from Santa](https://letterfromsanta.xyz/) with our tool—it takes about two minutes to preview. ## FAQ **What age is a Santa letter best for?** Most families start around ages 3–10, when children enjoy mail and imaginative play but still love concrete details about their year. **When should I give the letter?** Many parents deliver it on Christmas Eve or the morning of December 25. Others tuck it in the tree earlier in December as a mid-season surprise. **Should the letter mention school or sports?** A specific proud moment (sharing toys, reading more, helping a sibling) feels more magical than a long list of achievements. **Can grandparents order a letter?** Absolutely. Grandparents often add a city name or a detail from a visit so the letter feels extra personal. **How do I make delivery feel special?** Try mantel placement, a wax-seal sticker on the envelope, or “elf post” with a North Pole return address label you print at home. # Pricing https://letterfromsanta.xyz/pricing/ One-time payments only—no subscription, no surprise renewals. ## Pricing Preview free.

Plain copy paper works; choose the best quality setting and let inkjet prints dry for a minute so the red seal does not smudge. ## Margins & PDF Use US Letter (8.5×11 inches), portrait, 100% scale. Open Print Preview before printing. To save a PDF on Mac, choose Print → PDF → Save; on Windows, select Microsoft Print to PDF. ## Envelopes #10 envelopes fit a tri-fold letter. For a flat sheet, try 6×9 mailers. After unlocking, use the envelope print button to add your child’s name and “Special Delivery from the North Pole.” ## Timing Print the night before you plan to deliver so ink is fully set. Store flat in a book so the wax seal illustration stays crisp. ## Color and ink Our stationery uses pine green borders and a cranberry wax seal. On a color printer, those accents pop on cream paper. On monochrome printers, the design still reads as formal letterhead—avoid ultra-light eco fonts that fade. ## Kid-proof delivery Little hands may crumple paper; print a backup copy and store it flat in a cookbook or file folder. If you use glitter or stickers, add them after printing so they do not clog the printer. ## Accessibility If your child uses large print, increase browser zoom before printing, or paste the unlocked text into a word processor at 14–16 pt. The "Copy text" button on the unlocked view makes that easy. ## Family pack printing Siblings each deserve their own details. Our [family pack](https://letterfromsanta.xyz/pricing/) unlocks three letters so you are not reusing the same paragraphs. Print each letter separately with its own envelope label. [Generate your printable Santa letter](https://letterfromsanta.xyz/) and preview free before you unlock. ## FAQ **What paper looks best?** Cream or ivory cardstock around 24–32 lb feels substantial. Standard copy paper works in a pinch—print at “best” quality. **Which print settings should I use?** US Letter, portrait, scale 100%, margins default. Use Print Preview so the wax seal and border are not clipped. **How do I save a PDF?** In Chrome or Safari, choose Print, then Save as PDF or Open PDF in Preview. The site hides navigation when printing. **What about envelopes?** Use a #10 business envelope or a 6×9 mailer. Our envelope print option adds your child’s name and a North Pole headline. **Will ink smudge?** Let inkjet prints dry for a few minutes. Laser prints are usually ready immediately. # Privacy Policy https://letterfromsanta.xyz/privacy/ *Last updated: October 2026* North Pole Note ("we") operates letterfromsanta.xyz. This policy explains what we collect when you create a Santa letter and how we use it. ## Information you provide We store the details you enter to generate a letter (such as a child's first name, age, and accomplishments) along with the generated letter text so you can unlock and print it later.

The reindeer and I have been watching you giggle through story time and share your stuffed bear so nicely. The elves clapped when they heard. Keep being kind to your friends, and we will see what we can do about those cozy pajamas on your wish list. Love, Santa Claus P.S. Jingle the elf says hello! ## School-age (ages 7–9) Dear Jordan, North Pole report: you worked hard on multiplication and helped your teacher tidy the classroom. That kind of teamwork matters here too. Stay curious about science club, and remember—listening at home counts as hero work. Your friend, Santa Claus P.S. Comet the reindeer sends a snort of approval. ## A child who had a hard year Dear Ava, I know this year asked a lot of you. Moving schools and making new friends is brave work, and I am proud of how you kept trying. The workshop lights shine brighter for kids who keep showing up with a kind heart. With a hug from the North Pole, Santa Claus P.S. Elf Nora kept an extra star sticker just for you. ## How to adapt a template Swap the child’s name, add your city, and replace the proud moment with something from this year. Remove any line that does not fit your family. Templates are starting points; the [personalization tool](https://letterfromsanta.xyz/) weaves details together so the letter reads as one story, not a mad-lib. ## Length and reading level Aim for one printed page. Younger children lose interest after a few paragraphs; older kids enjoy a second anecdote or a P.S. from an elf. If your child is learning to read, consider reading the letter aloud together rather than handing it over silently. ## Tone checklist for parents - Lead with warmth, not rules. - Name one specific good deed you genuinely noticed. - If you mention struggles, pair them with encouragement. - Skip guaranteed presents; wonder and effort are the point. Want a letter that already includes your child's details? [Personalize a letter](https://letterfromsanta.xyz/) in the tool above the fold on our home page. ## FAQ **Can I copy these templates verbatim?** Yes for personal family use. For something unique, use our personalization tool with your child’s name and details. **How long should a Santa letter be?** About one page printed—roughly 200–300 words keeps younger kids engaged without overwhelming them. **What tone should I use?** Warm, specific, and encouraging. Mention one proud moment and one gentle goal, not a lecture. **Should I include wish-list items?** You can reference a wish in a soft way (“the elves are listening”) without promising a specific toy. **Are these templates religious?** Our examples stay secular so they work for many households. Add your own traditions at home if you like. # Terms of Service https://letterfromsanta.xyz/terms/ *Last updated: October 2026* By using North Pole Note you agree to these terms.
