Elves write and kids answer: these reply letters from kids to the elf give children paper to write on, draw on, and ask questions with.
✉️ What's in This Letter Pack
Three pages: stationery with a drawing box, a question sheet with five questions and one of their own, and a page with checkboxes and a coloring area. Kids who can write fill in the blanks. Younger kids draw or dictate. The elf replies overnight on the lines.
Letters Included
Page 1 is a cover sheet for parents with a page overview and tips. The letters themselves carry no logo and no page number, so they look as if the elf wrote them.
Stationery with date, “Dear elf” greeting, writing lines, and a box for “Here's what I drew for you”.
Five questions for the elf (name, age, favorite food, North Pole, funniest prank), a space for their own question, and room for the answer.
A hello page with a drawing area, a mood check (happy, tired, excited), and a wish (a prank, a letter, a riddle).
📝 How It Works
💡 Tips
- Answer with your non-writing hand so it looks like elf writing.
- If the elf's name comes up, reply “You get to decide” since the elf has no fixed name.
- Save the letters. A folder of elf mail makes a lovely keepsake.
