Are your children approaching the age where they stop believing in Santa Claus? For many of us, children grow up too fast. The innocent years are all too short. Believing in Santa Claus is one phase of childhood that ends all too soon. If your children still believe but are getting skeptical, you can arrange to have them receive personalized Santa letters and arrange to illustrate Santa’s visit with a Santa evidence kit.
Personalized Santa letters are a relatively new service provided by many department stores, websites, and individuals. Most of these suppliers offer similar features. Form letters are written in such as a manner as to appear to be from Santa Claus. These form letters can be edited and personalized with information particular to each child. Names, ages, pets, and other personal details are provided by the parents and plugged into appropriate places in the letters. Reference is usually made to the gifts requested by the child, especially if the child has written a letter to Santa.
Personalized Santa letters will brighten each child’s Christmas and help to prolong the belief that Santa is real. It will be a high point of the child’s Christmas season to receive a personalized Santa letter. Many businesses that provide this service even add an “official” North Pole postmark. Seeing this will heighten the anticipation of reading the letter and make it more believable.
Another method of prolonging the belief in Santa Claus is staging the scene on Christmas morning to make a night visitor look more real. Many families have made it a tradition to leave milk and cookies out for Santa. Often the parent that places the Christmas gifts under the tree will eat at least one and drink some to all of the milk to make it look as if Santa came and enjoyed a snack.
Some companies offer a new product called a Santa evidence kit. This kit contains a variety of items that that could be dropped by Santa in his haste to leave and continue his rounds. A “thank you” card to be placed by the cookies and milk plate, a glove, Santa’s eyeglasses, a license plate for the sleigh, and a ribbon awarding a prize for best decorated tree are examples of items that could come in a Santa evidence kit. If placed carefully in different locations, the contents of such a kit will make it appear that Santa came and had to leave in a big rush. Children prone to getting up in the middle of the night, especially on Christmas Eve, will appreciate this. They know that they are not supposed to catch Santa.
With children growing up so fast in today’s world, helping them to keep a touch of innocence a little while longer can be a huge blessing. Receiving Personalized Santa letters and finding the contents of a Santa evidence kit scattered strategically can help children to continue believing in Santa Claus a little while longer and hold onto childhood just a little longer.
