Dear Santa,
Ho! Ho!. Ho! When is my elf coming? What do you want? I will leave you cookies and milk. I will leave a carrot. I get a little bad to Stella and Bryce. I want a hoverboard, blankets, underwear and a chicken. I like your fluffy white beard. I made a Santa for you. Do you live by the Grinch?
Love,

Dear Santa,
Ho! Ho! Ho! My name is Bodie Bender. Christmas is my favorite holiday. I have been a very good boy this year. I help my friends and take good care of my dogs. When you come to my house this year, I will have cookies and milk for you. There are so many things I like about you, such as your round belly, your laugh and your kindness. Please can you bring me a BIG box of chips for Christmas? Also, I would like a chase toy from Paw Patrol. I love you, Santa.
Love,
Bodie

Dear Santa,
Hi. Merry Christmas. How are you? Today we made gingerbread men. How many reindeer do you have? Do you have more pets than reindeer like a dog or a cat? I am good but sometimes I fight with my siblings and friends. How many elves do you have? Does the Grinch live nearby? What do the reindeer eat? Is it candy? Will my elf come? Thank you for all the things that you give me! Can I have a pet cat or a snake, not a bad snake! I want a fox snake and I want an American Girl doll.

Hi, my name is Avery. At school I’ve been blurting and I know I’ve been a little naughty, but I try my best not to. So sometimes I’m naughty. I’ll leave you warm cookies and 8 carrots for the reindeer. Also, please can I have a Barbie doll for Christmas? Thank you for the presents you got me last year. Bye.

Dear Santa Claus,
Merry Christmas! How is it going at the North Pole? I would like to have a coloring kit for Christmas and a Lego set. I have been a good kid but sometimes at home I am a little bit bad. We are going to make cookies and some milk for you on Christmas. I would also like a series of Wings of Fire books. I really like Wings of Fire. How many reindeer do you have? I wonder how many elves are at the North Pole? I would also like a robot puppy. I wonder how the elves make so many toys and stuff for the whole world in one whole year? I also wonder if you give real animals to people. I hope I’ve been good.
Love,
