Your child receives a bright red envelope containing a personalized letter from Santa addressed to them. With the letter there is a recipe for Santa's favorite cookies, and a color-in and cut-out Christmas ornament craft project your child can do.

The letters come in a choice of themes: reindeers having fun, Santa's busy North Pole workshop and a Three Kings theme for those who prefer a reminder of the Christian origins of Christmas.

Santa Outfits For More Christmas Fun

Santa outfits are one of the first things to come to mind when I think of Christmas. When I was little one of the highlights of Christmas was meeting Santa in his red Santa suit at the local department store. We would queue up to sit on his knee and be photographed as we blurted out our most secret wishes of what we would like to find under the tree on Christmas morning. Often as not I would promise him a piece of Christmas cake and glass of whisky when he called, which always seemed to bring a sparkle to his eyes - you see, every Christmas my Mom had me help her set up that little treat on Christmas Eve, and it was always gone in the morning. I guess my Dad enjoyed it.

Santa OutfitThose days a Santa outfit was uncommon, so it was easy for a kid to believe that guy in the store was the real thing. Nowadays you see Santa costumes all over the town at Christmas. That's no bad thing. It really adds to the festivities.

A few years ago Granddad  showed up at our house on Christmas morning all dressed up as Santa in a Santa Claus costume, and ready to hand out the gifts from under the tree - much to the delight of the kids. Now it has become a much loved family tradition at our house. And yes, I bribe him with a piece of Christmas cake and a glass of whisky to bring an extra sparkle to his eyes!

Santa Outfits are easy to get and are not expensive to buy for good quality. It's so easy to dress up and look the part, and it adds so much to the family fun of Christmas to have a Santa Claus in the house at Christmas. They come in a variety of styles and sizes, including plus sized Santa costumes for big men. You can even get a version of a Santa Claus suit cut down for wearing in warmer climates! There is also a variation of  blue Santa suits, though my preference is still the traditional rich red Santa outfit with white trimmings and black belt and boots. A bell is a nice touch to add to a Santa costume as well, and there are other Christmas costumes for Santa's wife and his other little helpers available at this leading online Christmas costume store.
