and how to email and call him too!

November 1, 2024

It's time to write to Santa! What a fun Christmas tradition, and now, with the advance of technology, children now can pick between snail mail and email, phone calls and texts! So many ways to communicate with Santa!

Sending a physical letter can be one of the most exciting things kids do this Christmas season. Do you know what is even more exciting? Receiving a reply from Santa himself, some of the following places send replies!



  • Send this form to the Oldham County Parks and Recreation Department by December 15th and get a reply back from Santa!

United States Postal Service (USPS)

  • Follow the instructions HERE and use the tips given! They recommend sending letters between November 23 through December 1. Santa’s helpers in Anchorage, AK, will take care of the rest! The cost is a first-class mail stamp.

If your children are like me and love interacting with Santa instantly, try some of the following websites.

Letters to Santa

  • Kids just have to fill out their first names, how good they've been, and what they would like for Christmas. Submitting this information returns an instant reply from Santa along with clipart. Your child can also check to see whether he or she is on Santa's list.
