Between school events, gift shopping, and a mountain of to-dos, anything that makes life easier is a godsend. That’s where Lapland Mailroom’s personalised Letters from Santa come in – they’ve brought a memorable moment of joy for our family.

Lapland Letters from Santa gave the Real Parent fam the opportunity to review their service in exchange for an honest review, so I am here today to share our thoughts!

Spoiler alert: we loved them! Here’s everything you need to know:

What you can expect in this article...

Simple and seamless ordering

One of the standout features of Lapland Mailroom’s personalised Santa letters is how incredibly easy it is to place an order. The process is as straightforward as filling out a simple form with just a few fields. You’ll provide some basic (but vital) details to personalise the letter, ensuring it feels tailor-made for your child.

Before you finalise your order, you even get the chance to review how the letter looks – offering peace of mind that everything is just right. This user-friendly approach is a huge win for busy parents, making it effortless to add a touch of magic to the holiday season without any added stress.

Pure joy through the letter box

Picture this: those charming A5 envelopes, addressed directly to my kids and stamped from Lapland Mailroom, showing up at our door. No hint they were ordered online – just pure Christmas magic! My kids’ faces lit up like, well, Christmas lights!

What the letters from Santa look like

Each letter was filled with personal touches like their names, ages, and achievements, making it seem like Santa was really keeping an eye on them all year. It even mentions their best buddy for extra authenticity. For my eldest, who’s on the brink of outgrowing the Santa story, it was a sweet reminder of the magic still left to believe in.

‘Nice List’ Certificate and Activity Booklet

The cherry on top? Each letter includes a free ‘Nice List’ certificate, which had my kids plotting how to keep on Santa’s good side – all while giggling at their sneaky antics. And for just £1 more, you can add a fun activity booklet, perfect for a cosy activity session with hot chocolate.

Don’t miss the letters from Santa postal cut-off dates

A quick tip: mark those postal cut-off dates on your calendar! International orders need to be in by 10th December, 14th December for Europe, and 21st December for the UK. You don’t want to miss out on the magic!

My top tips

Order early: Order early to avoid any last-minute rush and ensure the letters arrive in time for the holiday excitement.
Personalisation Ideas: Include specific details about your child’s recent achievements or funny anecdotes to make the letter even more special.
Display the Certificate: I recommend framing the ‘Nice List’ certificate or displaying it prominently to keep the holiday spirit alive throughout the season. It might just keep behaviour in check – here’s hoping!
Make it a Tradition: Make receiving a Santa letter an annual tradition, adding to the anticipation and joy each year.
Share the Experience: Share the opening letter experience with family or friends, perhaps over a video call, to spread the joy and create shared memories.

These keepsake letters capture the fun (and madness) of our family Christmases for years to come. If you’re looking to add a sprinkle of joy to the holiday season without adding to the chaos, Lapland Mailroom’s Santa letters are the way to go. They bring pure delight to our kids’ faces and give us parents a much-needed moment of joy too.
