The United States Postal Service is doing their part once again to keep the magic of Santa Claus alive with its “Letters from Santa” program.

“Letters from Santa” allows any person in a child’s life to mail a letter to their child “from Santa,” postmarked from the North Pole. Pretty neat, right?

Here’s how “Letters from Santa” works:

1. Write a letter to your child from Santa Claus and sign it “From, Santa.”

2. Insert the letter into an envelope addressed to your child with the return address: Santa, North Pole.

3. Make sure to slap on a first class stamp to the envelope!

4. Place the envelope into a larger envelope, with appropriate postage, and address the larger envelope to:

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

5.  Your letter "from Santa" will be mailed back to your child, postmarked from the North Pole.  Please note that "Letters from Santa" must be mailed out no later than December 10th so it can get to the Anchorage office by December 15th. Santa's helpers in Anchorage will take care of the rest.
