I am SO glad our friends at the Elf on the Shelf launched this darling Letters to Santa activity because I am officially making it a family tradition and am sad I wasn’t able to start sooner! Now that I got my love for this out of the way, let me tell you about it!
We had our cousins in on the fun and made it little party! 
We gifted them with their own box which comes with everything you need to get your letters ready and a sweet little book to explain it. 
Your kids may wonder how to get their letter to Santa AND if he actually reads it, I know mine do at least. First, you write your letter to Santa. Then our Elf Max P. (named “Maximum Presents” – my son is SO seven years old right now) needs to get it to the big guy but it’s a little large for his tiny elf hands. 
Next you need to shrink your letter so your Scout Elf can deliver it! Put it in Mrs. Claus’ magic press and voila! It will be perfectly shrunken down so Max P. can deliver it.
Then the big day was here – Max P. arrived! So we threw him a little welcome to the family party (this fun kit is filled with games, party favors, decor and more!) and that night donned him with the official Christmas Lists! 
Sure enough the next day Santa sent it back with him so you KNOW he read it and then you can keep it as a keepsake ornament! 
I will be doing this every year and can’t wait to see the ornaments all together over the years and how my boys’ interests change as they grow. 
I really love this idea, way to go Elf on the Shelf!
