Is Santa Real? Letters to Santa Part II

LettersPart2We opened another group of the 500 letters sent to Santa from Scarsdale kids and found some more amusing lists:

A young boy informed Santa that they celebrate Hanukkah, not Christmas, at his house but added his lists of requests nonetheless.

Another family divided their letter into three segments – for mom, dad and the dog to add their requests to the child’s. In additional to a few Lego’s for the letter writer, mom asked for a plum-colored bag and a nice scarf!

Aiden from Fox Meadow reported “I helped by mom do housework, and helped my teacher in math class, adding, “sometimes even teaching the class.”

A Quaker Ride boy reported “that he recycled,” and vowed to "shout less" and say, “thank you more.”

Three and half year-old Sophie said, “After my nap I am going to drop off this note and Santa is going to say “Hey” who dropped off this note!”

On behalf of her two dogs Itty and Sherman a girl said they “would love some peace and quiet and new dog bed.”

One boy wrote in large black block type, “Dear Santa this year I tride to do my best at being good even though I did some stuff that I shouldn’t do and I might have did some stuff that isint necessary but just remember that I’m trying to do my best …. So for Christmas I want …..”

Charlotte requested an AI robot bunny and a “cleaning robot” for her mom. But is Santa real? She added a P.S .to her letter saying, “Please tell me if you are Mom or Dad. Write it in a letter.”

(We will have another 300+ letters to read, so if anyone wants to stop by, let us know.)

Happy New Year!
