Dear Santa,

Well, the Saturday after Thanksgiving I helped the kids write their letters to Santa! This is something that I grew up doing and I loved the whole excitement of Santa Claus. It's something that we never questioned doing with our kids. The kids had looked at the Fisher-Price catalog and both found something that they wanted for Christmas. I kind of convinced them to ask Santa for it.
So we started our activity by cutting out what they wanted from the magazine. Brooklyn wants a Dollhouse like her friend Sydney with all the people and furniture. I wrote Brookie's letter and she helped me write her name. She got to glue the pictures to the back of her page. Then she wanted to color on hers. Silas wants a Batcave with the Batmobile and the Joker. He needed help with his letter but definately not his name. He also glued but didn't color. Then we folded them up, put them in an envelope and sent it on its way to the North Pole. They really enjoyed this and I know will look forward to it each year!
