Getting any kind of letter in the mail is exciting for a child, but imagine how thrilled your little one would be to open the mailbox and find a note from Santa! Through the U.S. Postal Service’s “Letters from Santa” program, your child can receive a personalized letter from jolly old Saint Nick postmarked from the North Pole.

Here’s how it works:

1. Write a letter from Santa to your child (make sure to sign it “From, Santa”)
2. Place the finished letter into an envelope addressed to your child with a North Pole return address. Include a First-Class stamp.
3. Insert that envelope into a larger envelope, with the correct postage, and send it to:

                   North Pole Postmark
                   Postmaster
                   4141 Postmark Drive
                   Anchorage, AK
                   99530-9998

Mail your letter out by December 10, 2012 and Santa’s helpers will have it delivered in time for Christmas!
