Dear Santa,

My name is Cole. I am 4 years old. How are you, the reindeer and Mrs. Claus? We are doing fine. My brother Casey is 10 and he would like a Wii. I know they are hard to find, but he has been pretty good. My sister Caileigh is 6 and she would like anything Hannah Montana. She has been pretty good too.

I have tried to be the best I can. Could I please have a Jonas Brothers CD and a Hot Wheels race track? I'll try to be good until Christmas but it is hard.

Dear Santa,

Hi Santa Claus.  My wish for Christmas is for you to give the kids that does not have any homes a great Christmas, and the Soldiers to have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year, and the people that don't have enough money for their Christmas gifts maybe you could give them a good Christmas and also could you help the homeless find shelter to stay warm and out of the weather.  I wish all the families good health.

 

P.S. Will you do that for me???   THAT IS MY CHRISTMAS WISH!!!!!!! You have a great Christmas too.

Dear Santa,

My name is Keegan and I am five. I am live in Norwalk ohio.  I hope you have had a great year. How are your elfs, are they busy making toys? How are your reindeers doing? Hows Mrs. Clause? Does she go with you on your long trip to keep you company? I have been pretty good this year, you can ask my mommy. For christmas I  would like to get a power tour electric guitar and amp.  I also need some clothes. I would like to have a oostume so I could dress up lke you.  I would also enjoy a pretend shaving set so that I can shave like my grand popie. I also want a play gas pump to put gas in my power wheels and blocks to build a big tower.  When you get to my house I will have yummy cookies and cold milk waiting for you and reindeer food for your reindeers.  Have a happy christmas.

 

 

P.S. My Nana wanted a vacum cleaner but don't worry I told her, "Look old lady santa only takes care of the kids. So get over it" So she understands you won't be giving her one.

Dear Santa,

I know I just saw you at Walmart last week, but with it being my first time to see you, I was so nervous that I forgot to tell you what I wanted!

I LOVE Dora the Explorer! Anything that has her on it is fine with me. I am very smart and already know how to count in both English and Spanish, & my ABC's and I am only 2!

I like learning games and toys, so they would be fun too.

Please bring my big sister something nice too. And something extra special for my Uncle Sid, he is my favorite boy!

I will leave out some goodies for you,

Love,

Dear Santa,

Dear Santa,

I have been very good this year. I have even been the goodest the past two months than the whole rest of the time! I know you are watching and I really don't pick on my sister, we are just playing! Sometimes she tries to get me in trouble I am thinking.

For Christmas I would like for all the boys and girls to get a toy. I like to get presents and I am thinking they would too! Some kids don't get Christmas presents and it probly makes them cry. So please bring toys for all the kids!

I like Transformers a lot. Specially the yellow BumbleBee. If you bring clothes I will very much like them too. Please remember toys though! You have my list so you know what I want. Remember I was handing it to you in your chair at the mall.

Hurry up quick Santa, but don't speed, cause you might get a ticket,

Love,

Chris

 

P.S. You can come early if you want!
