\t\t\t\tHe’s making a list<\/p>\n

and checking it twice,<\/p>\n

He’s gonna find out<\/p>\n

who’s naughty or nice …<\/p>\n

And he’s …<\/p>\n

… waiting for you …<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

at an adorable website called emailSanta.com<\/a> where your child can write to Santa and get a personalized video and written reply all the way from the North Pole.<\/p>\n

With just a few clicks, your child\u00a0sends an e-mail\u00a0letter to Santa with her first name, age, city, and her top three Christmas wishes. Then the fun begins.<\/p>\n

First, you’ll hear Santa and his elves talking about your child\u00a0(be sure to turn up your volume so you can understand the “Elvish” chatter), then Santa appears in a cute video, calling your child by name, and talking about Christmas preparations at the North Pole. Then you get a personalized letter on your screen that even discusses your wish-list items.\u00a0After printing your letter, you can opt into a parents-only portion of the site that allows you to upload a photo of your Christmas tree and insert a photo of Santa into it, then help Santa write a personalized thank-you note to your child for the snacks she left him. You then print out the thank you and leave it for your child to discover on Christmas morning.<\/p>\n

All this without divulging any personal information … you don’t even have to input your e-mail address. Kids and adults alike will get a kick out of this new twist on writing to Santa. While you’re there, be sure to check out “The Santa Tracker” and “The Santa Snooper” North Pole web cam. You can also listen to the elves read “The Night Before Christmas,” read Santa’s blogs, see Santa’s magic photo album, and more … your pet can even send her own message to Rudolph.<\/p>\n

Ho, ho, ho.<\/p>\n

and<\/p>\n

Arf, arf, arf.<\/p>\n
