Santa keeps a special direct-to-the-North-Pole mailbox at Brookview for the first half of December, and his helpers empty it every evening.
Stationery is on site, and Santa asks that each letter carry the child’s full name and address so he can write back.
Parent tip: Write the letter at home with the full mailing address so it is ready to drop in on any visit before December 15.

A story for the drive home
A morning with Santa or an evening of holiday stories tends to end the same way: tired kids, a long drive and one more book before bed. Our picture book follows Rally the corgi on his first train ride to see his grand-paw-rents, and every page is painted by hand. If your family is spending December missing someone, it was written for that too. For the car, print our free corgi and train coloring pages.

A bedtime story after seeing SantaRally Takes the Train is a five-minute rhyming picture book about a corgi’s first ride on a California train, hand-painted in watercolor. $16.99 on Amazon, ages 0 to 8.
