Celebrate National Letter Writing Day With Letters To Santa

Filed Under: Christmas, Holidays Tagged With: elf on the shelf, sponsored

Thanks Elf on the Shelf for helping us celebrate national letter writing day and sponsoring today’s post. All opinions are my own.


Our Scout Elf Ralphie returned with a few friends. Ralphie had his new pet, a Saint Bernard, that the boys named Snoopy, and Santa sent an extra Scout Elf since we are expecting a new addition. The boys decided to name him Randy after Ralphie’s brother in A Christmas Story, which is where Ralphie got his name.

Our Scout Elves brought the boys the Letters To Santa kit. You can read more about the kit here.

This is the perfect way to celebrate national letter writing day.

Dustyn was able write his own letter. He even drew little pictures to go along with what he wanted.

We had Carsyn and Prestyn color on their letters then we wrote their lists for them.

Here is Prestyn watching the letters shrink. Make sure you read all the directions that came with the kit and follow them carefully.

Once they are all done writing their letters and you have shrunk them down using Mrs. Claus’ Magic Press you place them beside your scout elf and they take the letters off to the North Pole for Santa to read. Then they bring the letters back and you can keep them as ornaments to enjoy year after year. It will be fun to look back and see what they wanted.

I think the boys letters to Santa turned out super cute.

Beautiful beach day. Got a little hot at one point Beautiful beach day. Got a little hot at one point and the water was too cold for me to get in but just kept dipping my feet in the water to cool down. Unfortunately I got a terrible headache in the afternoon so had to cut the trip a little short. Next time I need to remember to bring medicine. Not sure what’s been going on lately but the last few days I have gotten headaches in the afternoon.

Ariel singing and dancing. She asked me to put red Ariel singing and dancing. She asked me to put red hair color in her hair so she could be Ariel 🧜‍♀️. The red from the front is already going away. Swipe to see her singing a song. Also, the last photo is of the banana bread I made yesterday. Check my reels for the recipe. So good.

Happy 4th Birthday Annelyn Jane. 

Also, side note. This balloon gave me so much trouble. The first one I bought got lost at her birthday party because a kid was running through the park and got his arm stuck on the string and away it flew. So I ordered another one to be delivered today and the package came sliced. So I had to put a bunch of tape on it and I still had to be quick with photos because it kept losing air. 🤦🏻‍♀️
