Review: Lapland Mailroom Letter From Santa Claus

AD

Now that it is halfway through November I think that it is safe to mention the C word - CHRISTMAS.

 I love Christmas, it really is the most wonderful time of the year. Most of my treasured childhood memories are of Christmas time and spending time with my family. Now I am a parent myself I love Christmas even more, as watching your children get excited is truly priceless.

Every family has Christmas traditions and I am sure that the most popular one is without a doubt sending Santa Claus a Christmas letter asking him for longed for gifts. 

 So when I was asked if I would like to review a personalised letter from the Lapland Mailroom I thought this would be such a lovely idea.

The Lapland Mailroom is run by a husband and wife team, Paul and Nicola, and is based in the UK. When you visit the site it is really festive looking, with a choice of four letters to choose from. They have a baby's first Christmas one - which I got for Jacob,  then a choice of three other letters. So if you have more then one child you can get them all slightly different letters, which I think is a brilliant idea.

Ordering the letter is so easy you just chose one of the four-letter options available and then you click personalise my letter, where you select if you want the letter to be off Santa Claus or Father Christmas. You then add the child's name, gender, age, which city they live in, child's best friend, a gift they want for Christmas and also what they left out for Santa and the Reindeer's last year.

 All of these things make the letter more believable for children. You also have the option of including an activity pack in with the letter for an extra £1. The activity pack contains a Christmas card, Santa stop here sign, door hanger, Christmas tree decoration and an Elf activity sheet for your child to colour in themselves, it is a nice Christmas activity to get them in the festive spirit.

When the letter's arrived they come in a white envelope similar to letters us parents receive through the post but they have Lapland postmarks on and are addressed to the child making them so believable. The letter inside the envelope is really lovely, they are on nice thick paper and are so lovely presented and they really do look like they have been sent from the big man in red himself. Obviously, my children are a bit young to appreciate and understand the letter themselves but an older child would really believe and find these letters so magical.

Would I recommend these letters to others? Yes, I would as they are really nice and so easy to order.

You can order your own letter from www.laplandmailroom.com they cost £6.95 including postage or £7.95 if you include an activity pack in with the letter. And if you order soon you will also get a free nice child certificate in with your letter which is worth £2.95. Letters will start to leave the mailroom from the 1st of December and you can even choose a next day delivery option if you order before 2pm. The last ordering dates for UK deliveries at present is the 20th December. But be quick before Santa and his elves get too busy.

Disclosure: I was sent two free letters from the Lapland Mailroom for the purpose of this review, however, all views are my own.
