Thought I would share this with everyone in case anyone wanted to send their child a version of it. I printed mine on Christmas paper and did a Christmas looking envelope.

I remember getting these when I was little and loved them!

When I went to mail mine they told me if I had of done it in time you could mail it to the North Pole and they would mail it back for you to have it postmarked North Pole for those old enough to notice the mark. I am doing that next year!

Great letter, I think I'll use it.
 
For future reference- there are a ton of volunteers that work the holidays in Fairbanks and its neighboring town, North Pole. You send your child's letter, including a response from you in a SASE to Santa Clause, North Pole, Alaska. They will take out your response and postmark it "North Pole, Alaska" and mail it back. Some of the volunteers even write responses back to those that didn't include one signing them "Santa's elves".

I know your son is only 2, but I thought it was a cool idea for older kids!
 
Here is a number that you can call for a message from Santa, the message changes everyday.

I also saw a lot of places on the internet that you could order them from and they included certificates and something like a membership and some stickers and stuff in it. They were neat too, but my way is cheaper!:D
