Are you kids wanting to get a letter to the big guy himself? This printable Letter to Santa Template is perfect! Use this letter to Santa template to print and get in the mail!

Kids of all ages still believe in the magic of Christmas. There’s no denying that the desire to write a letter to Santa truly never goes away. This is why this letter to Santa template PDF is the best! It fills in all the details that aren’t fun for the kids to write and leave the space for them to customize it as they see fit!

Will they admit to Santa that they’ve been a bit naughty this year or are they going to hold firm to their truth that they’ve been good? This Christmas letter to Santa template is great to print out for all the kids to complete on their own!

You can print out this letter to Santa template in black and white to save on ink or full color – totally up to you. Hand it out to the kids and have them start the writing process. More than likely, they know exactly what they want to write to Santa and will be done before you know it!

Silly Ways To Talk about the Naughty and Nice List

The holidays are always a ton of fun but some kids might actually be a bit confused about if they’re on the naughty or the Santa’s nice list. To help them feel better, why not have a conversation?

Kids know what it’s like to be nice and how to be nice, but the word “naughty” might make them feel a bit anxious or stressed. Letting them know what Santa knows that all kids are good kids is important and that sometimes, kids being “naughty” means that they’re just being part of a fun joke that Santa likes to talk about each year.

This is a great way to have the younger kids not feel as though they’re “bad” or are being punished but helps them to realize that being “good” is something that really should be the focus for the whole year long instead.

Keep the explanation simple and light and merry and help them know that no matter what list they’re on for the holidays, they’re perfect in your eyes!

When Does Elf on the Shelf Arrive?

The Elf on the Shelf typically returns Thanksgiving evening with the kids discovered Elf in the morning. However, the best thing about Elf is you can personalize this Christmas tradition to your family. If a few weeks works best for your home or a longer period too, that is okay. There is no rule for when should Elf on the Shelf arrive.

Why is my Elf on the Shelf not coming?

If your child is asking where did my Elf on the Shelf go, begin this process for time delay. Explain that more and more elves are trying to get out of the North Pole and there is a long line for receiving magic and exiting the Norths Pole Customs line. Ask your to write Santa. They can ask Santa for Elf to be moved to the front of the line for arrival. You can also explain the need to be patient.

When Elf does arrive, it is going to be great because we have some amazing Elf on the Shelf Arrival Ideas.

We’ve established if an Elf can have a family? We’ve talked about If an Elf can have a baby… what about, can Elf get married?

Can Elf on the Shelf Get Married?

If Elf has found love, why not have an Elf wedding? Elf can get married when he has fun his true love. Many of the true loves Elves have found include Barbie, Disney Princesses and even girl Elf dolls.

Of course before Elf on a Shelf gets married, Elf must have a wedding proposal. The perfect Elf wedding is usually preceded by the perfect ring – a candy ring pop! They produce the biggest rock ever!

Elf of the Shelf Marriage Proposal Idea

First comes the proposal, then comes marriage, then comes the Elf baby. Before we begin baby making and baby planning, let’s talk about the Elf on the Shelf proposal idea.

In this Elf on the Shelf proposal idea, Elf gets on one knee and “she says yes!”

How to Create an Elf on the Shelf Proposal

He went to Jared and She Said Yes!

For this Elf wedding ideas, make sure you have an elf that can bend. You can do that easily with our Bendable Elf on the Shelf tutorial. Even with a bendable Elf, you might have to use Elf Props to help you get your elf to stay in a kneeling position.

In our case, to prop our Elf in a proposal potion (i.e. down on one knee) we used a clear jar and some clear tape. You child might ask about it but explain it off as Elf wanting “to make sure he wasn’t touched…” and then go into detail on how he must have been stressing his magic would be erased on his engagement day by falling over and you touching him…. (eventually you will bore your child to death with this very tall tale.)

Once you have your Elf on the Shelf on a knee, stage a “she said yes” sign. Place heart candy canes around the proposal. Place your Barbie in place. A Barbie doll stand might be helpful for staging. Otherwise, put her in front of a clear glass too, you can even tie her with a fishing line.

Elf on the Shelf Wedding Clothes

Next you are going to need Elf on the Shelf Wedding Clothes. Look for an Elf on the Shelf wedding dress and tuxedo to take this to the next level. The idea doesn’t have to come the next day. In fact, you can even wait until the next year as most engagements to wedding don’t take place in just a few weeks – right? What would be be teaching our kids.

Take a look at these cute places to buy Elf on the Shelf wedding dresses and tuxedos

Also make sure to go through your Barbie Wedding clothes – they will be incredibly helpful for staging this Elf wedding idea.

When you begin to plan his Elf wedding, it’s important to grab a wedding photographer and wedding planner (unless you can take on a wedding of this magnitude alone.)

Take a look at Polar Square Designs who has planned everything from the ring bearer (the official Elf on the Shelf reindeer pet) to the wedding getaway car.

I am happy to share printables. When sharing with others, please lead them to my website instead of emailing them the file(s). It takes time, effort and money to put the freebies forth and I earn when you visit. Thanks for visiting and thanks for sharing with others!

I like to order my prints at Staples. It saves on ink and is only a few short miles from my home. I pick-up at the store, but of course you can upload them online and then have them shipped to your home.

To Order Your Printables at Staples*:

Download and save your image from this post. (Please note these images are for personal use only and cannot be sold or used for commercial use.)
Sign in or create a Staples account on their print service page.
Return to Staples print service page.
Go to Start Project.
Go to Documents Printing. Select Browse.
Select the Buy Now Button under color.
On the left column, choose add file.
Select upload.
Select done.
Give your job a name.
Make sure your project is single sided. The orientation should be portrait.
I changed my media to 8.5×10 and the media to 67 lb cover stock (I prefer a card stock feel over printer paper feel.)
Select add to cart.
Proceed to checkout. You can choose to ship to your home or to pick up at your local store. Pay online and show your invoice when you pick up (I just show the order number on my phone at pick-up.) The order invoice will arrive in your email inbox.
Enjoy!
