rskk would you please give some more info on mailing Santa? Is this part of a breakfast with Santa social or any other event?

We also do a similar event. One thing I haven't seen mentioned is that we give the students an opportunity to write Santa a letter. We provide paper, envelopes and a stamp. I think it might cost $1 to cover our costs. The student writes the letter and puts it in Santa's mailbox. Each student actually receives a letter back from Santa before Christmas. We have one Mom who loves writing the return letters! They love this!!!

You might also want to do a search of this site as there have been several detailed postings in the past. Various names are used, but "Santa" usually pops up somewhere in the dicussion, so that would be a good search word.

We hold a Breakfast with Santa at our school--usually the 1st or 2nd week in december on a saturday morning from 8-11 am. We of course have santa there--we offer pictures with santa for $3.oo polaroid picture, we usually serve--sausage( which we get donated in) juice, coffee, french toast sticks and a hash brown--we place a large container at the end of the food line for donations for breakfast. We have games set up in the gym and sell tickets 5 for $1.00--after each game the kids get a ticket which they take to the prize table and get like a hat for 10 tickets--we order alot from oriental trading.
We have horse drawn sleigh rides for $1.00 per person, we held a silent auction last year at the breakfast.whichever grades are putting on the winter music show always sing at the breakfast too.
We have lots of fun putting this together and the kids love it!!
