Funny Letters to Santa

Here, Will and Guy bring you some amusing correspondence to Santa Claus, Father
Christmas, Pere Noel. We hope that these letters, which we have discovered
on the internet will entertain
you.

A Real Santa Claus
Talks About His Role

Carl Anderson has been Santa Claus for 28 seasons, at last he has revealed what we already suspected.

Kids can be hilarious and heart-breaking and he’s got some perfect tales
to illustrate it write Will and Guy.  Beyond the expected requests for the
latest Barbie and video game, kids have whispered into Santa Carl Anderson’s
ear their desire for world peace and their pain at their parents’ breakups.

‘Kids see Santa as someone they can confide in,’ Anderson, 57 informs us.
One little girl simply wanted a chair so she could write in a “little
diarrhoea” at her desk. ‘Of course she meant diary, but the misspeaks are
pretty funny,’ added Anderson.

Children’s musings are often more serious, and reflect what’s going on in
the news, or at home.

A boy pleaded for lots of toys for terrorists so they ‘wouldn’t hate us
so much,’ says Anderson. Yet another little one, ‘…wanted money to help
mom pay the bills because she worries so much.’

It’s not easy being Santa. I”s hard on the body and on the heart. ‘I
feel for them a lot,’ says Anderson. ‘It’s hard when kids ask me to get
their mommy and daddy to love each other again or when they want someone who
is sick to recover. I tell them I can’t promise anything but I will make it
my wish for them – and I do,’ he adds.  ‘Santa is a symbol of hope.
They know he’ll always be there and care about them and want the best for
them.’

Clean Hilarious and Funny Letters to Santa Claus

Dear Santa,
Please give me a doll this year. I would like her to eat,
walk, do my homework, and help me clean my room.
Thank you, Jenny

Dear Santa,
Thanks for the race car last year. Can I have another one,
only this time one that is faster than my best friend’s race car?
Ricky

Dear Father Christmas,
I wish you could leave a puzzle under the tree for me. And
a toy for my sister. Then she won’t want to play with mine and I can have it
to myself.
Merry Christmas, Cassie

Dear Santa,
You can send me one of everything from the boys’ section
of the Sears catalogue. But nothing from the girls’ section. I can’t wait
for Christmas to come.
Kent

Dear Pere Noel,
Could you come early this year? I’ve been really super
good, but I don’t know if I can last much longer. Please hurry.
Love,
Jordan

I lost my list of toys, so please just send me the stuff

What should I leave for your reindeer to eat? Do they like

I need a new skateboard for Christmas. The one I got now

Stocking contained foreign material including but not limited to: toe
jam, lint, coal remnants, decade-old candy cane, pet hair.
Advanced
SantaScan™ technology detected “Nice List” forgery.

No chimney.
At time of arrival on rooftop, Nancy was found to be
awake. Per long-time St. Nick protocol, all parties must be in full slumber
before Santa can deliver packages as scheduled.

Extensive elf research revealed that you, Nancy, no longer believe in
Santa Claus, or that you professed to younger believers that Santa is “not
real.”
Kindest regards,
Santa

J.R.R. Tolkien as Santa

In 1920, J.R.R. Tolkien, of ‘Lord of the Rings’ fame, wrote and
illustrated a letter from Santa Claus for his three-year old son. This,
apparently, Will and Guy have learned, became a regular tradition for his
children for the next twenty-three years.

Son Discovers Mother’s 100-year-old Christmas Letter.

Hannah Howard’s Christmas letter was hidden and lost in a chimney for
years.

The ghost of Christmas 100 years past arrived early for a County Down,
Northern Ireland man when he discovered the “Santa letter” his late mother
wrote when she was a girl.

The scorched letter, shown here, dated Christmas Eve 1911, had been up a
chimney in a Dublin house for decades. Victor Bartlem’s mother, Hannah
Howard, had written her Christmas wish list when she was just 10 years old.

It was first discovered in 1992 when the current house owner John Byrne
installed central heating. He came upon Hannah’s letter in the chimney and
decided to keep it as a memento of times past. He made it public last year
[2011] in the Irish Times and it was there that Victor – living more than
100 miles away in Bangor, County Down, read about it.

Mr Bartlem informed Will and Guy that, ‘I simply couldn’t believe it. I
never knew about this letter. I never even knew it existed.’ And he added,
‘It is in the spirit of the time we are in at the moment which is
Christmas,” he said.

We have been able to discover what was written on this 100 year old list.

Hannah included:

• A baby doll.
• A waterproof with a hood.
• A pair of gloves and a toffee apple.
• A gold penny and a silver sixpence.
• A long toffee.

We can’t help feeling that the list is far less demanding than many
modern equivalents.
Hannah was born on Christmas Day 1900 and she died in
1978.
