As I have previously written, Christmas has got a lot more magical since we had the boys. This year especially as Finley has started to really understand Christmas and Santa Claus so when I was asked by Lapland Mailroom to review a letter from Santa Claus and to host a giveaway, I couldn't say no. The letters start from £7.95 depending on what package you would like. They kindly sent us two letters, one for each of the boys, and when they arrived just 3 days after ordering them we were not disappointed.
They arrived while the boys were at my Mums so when they arrived home yesterday, our elf Sausage had delivered them in Postman Pats van. Their faces were a picture and they were both so excited. Noah doesn't totally understand but follows Finley's lead so the fact he was excited it was mirrored.
We settled down in front of the Christmas tree to open the letters, well I say open, the boys ripped them open. They were fascinated by them and were even more excited when they realised they were on the nice list. Along with the letters from Santa Claus we received a nice child list certificate to let the boys know they were on the nice list and that Santa Claus would be visiting them. Finley did a little bum wriggle with a huge smile on his face at this!
We then sat and read both letters. There are 4 letters you can choose from, 3 standard letters with different content and one baby's first Christmas. I choose two different letter formats so that they would have different content for the boys. To make it personal to your children they ask some different questions such as your child's name, their age, where they will be on Christmas eve, what they are hoping for from Santa Claus and their gender.
They also ask if you would like to add anything at the bottom to make it a little more personal. I decided to add a bit about how brave Finley had been with his toe and for Noah I put how good he has been at preschool. They also ask if you would like the letter to be signed off by Santa Claus or Father Christmas.
The whole design of the letter and certificate is beautiful and so realistic to children. There are a few tiny touches that make it look authentic with the Lapland stamp of the envelope and certificate, Santa Claus's picture on the letter and also the colour of the paper. It's not just plain white, it has a stained paper effect. Both the letter and certificate have been signed off by Santa Claus himself. The paper quality is great quality.
These letters are fantastic and add that extra magical touch to Christmas and add some excitement for the children. A lovely keepsake for them in years to come. The boys loved these letter and now can't wait for Christmas day.

Aww what a fab idea! so cute! Thanks for sharing, I haven't entered because I like to make them myself but i think next year we might give it a go :) #Mg
ReplyDeleteThese are brilliant! I would have loved to receive something like this as a child, a special personal letter direct from Santa Claus is about as exciting as it gets. I wonder if we have something like this available in NZ, I must check it out...
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely idea for children of the right age - a special letter from Santa. Sadly the Tubblet is too old :(
ReplyDeleteThese look fantastic! The quality of the paper, the colors & the seal make it so authentic. I love the good list certificate too, children love to know their hard work all year has paid off! #MG x
