Dear Santa: Routt County children write letters to Santa Claus

Dear Santa,
Merry Christmas! My name is Heidi. I am 3 years old. I would like a new stroller for my dolls for Christmas.
Thank you!
Heidi

Dear Santa,
I would like a new Nerf gun. And a bullet-proof vest. A new iPad. A light saber that is plastic. I would also want a drone. A Ti-fighter Lego set and a football. And a Gizmo Gadget.
Colin Shattuck, second grade

Dear Santa,
I think I’ve been good this year. I am a big helper and nice to my family and friends. I like my teachers. Pretty please with a cherry on top stop by my house. I have food for you and the reindeer.
I would like: magnet tiles, bow and arrows, tractor, candy and a garbage truck.
Thank you!
Jack Elliot Summers



Dear Santa,
I have been a good boy this year. I listen to Mommy and Daddy. I would really like Legos, especially the sea rescue helicopter, a razor scooter and snow paint. I will leave cookies for you and carrots for the reindeer, but not too many like you said. Thank you.
Your friend,
Grayson

Dear Santa,
This is my list: time machine, Secret series by Bosch, cellphone, virtual reality and a roller coaster. I’ve been good this year.
Ethan Summers, 6



Dear Santa,
This year I do not want very many things. I have a few requests but the rest is up to you. First, I would like my penguin that got lost in Barcelona back please (if you can). Also, I would like my room to be cleaner without much help from Mom and Dad. Finally I would like it to snow and snow and snow and snow. I will leave the rest to you.
Lucy Capra
P.S. Don’t make your elves work too hard!

Dear Santa,
How have you been this year? I hope that you and Mrs. Claus are doing fine. This year so far has been the best year of middle school. I have a new best friend named Clark, and I also bought a PC from my friend Sawyer. In my opinion, I’ve been a pretty good kid. For Christmas this year, I would really like the Redragon mechanical gaming keyboard k553 (the RGB and black color) and the Redragon M902 Samsara gaming mouse (in black). Every year you have left me a iTunes card, but I don’t really have a use for them, so I was wondering if I could get a Steam gift card (you can find them at City Market). Thank you.
Merry Christmas,
Ely Charles Cariveau

Dear Santa,
The eight things I want for Christmas are: a Lightning McQueen car, a police car, a playhouse but not for girls, a teddy bear, color books, markers and crayons and a toy garage.
Santiago

Dear Santa,
For Christmas, I would like a cat, a hatchamole, a pair of rainbow unicorn PJs, and a Comfy Critter zebra. Can we get something for the elfs please and can the elfs stay for Christmas?
Happy holidays and merry Christmas – ho, ho, ho!
Lucy

Dear Santa,
I want a tent this year and a toy elf and some real lipstick and long Christmas dresses.
Wren

Dear Santa,
For Christmas, I only want a few things: a good holiday, a big hachamall, for you to have a good Chistmas and little hachamalls.
Love,

P.S. I don’t need absolutely everything on this list. I also put a picture in the envelope.

Dear Santa,
I hope things are good down in the North Pole. Some things I want for Christmas are: a ninja suit and a new Lego set (I don’t care what kind), some new books and a new foam airplane. Also, I want a Nerf gun.
Love,

Dear Santa,
I love you. Can you bring our classroom a Christmas tree? We have a jar of box tops. Do you have more box tops and bead chains and Montessori works? Can you bring us a million Christmas trees?
Love,
Silas

Dear Santa,
For Christmas I want a giant panda bear. My life has been tough at this time. I don’t know if I should get rid of the American Girl dolls or not. I am suddenly thinking I should keep them. I am really excited for Christmas and hope I will not be scared at night anymore. Anyways, I also want some art supplies and a few chapter books that are challenging and entertaining (you know, entertains me, right?) If you do know if I should keep the American Girl dolls (which I think I do want them), if you do get me one, I would like the cowgirl one (I kinda would like something different). I would also like some surprises (multiple surprises!!!). I also want a poster for my room and a pillow (the decorations like the hand art design). Also, I would like some joy. That should be easy for you because you’re Santa. Don’t forget the surprises.
Merry Christmas,
Rae Olexa

Dear Santa,
This year I want a sun zero costume and a Captain America mask and Civil War Legos, iPad, ninja Legos, King Kong Skull Island movie, Spiderman Homecoming movie and sticky mustaches.
Santa, I like you a lot.
From,
Aidan McAuliffe

Dear Santa,
Thank you for so much for giving to all of the children of the world. Connor and Gracie have been working very hard and if there’s anything you can reward them for, then please. This Christmas I would love if you got me a box of lots of colored hair bows. I mean I want one to keep your hair off your face and at the end of braids. Next, are some gingerbread earrings that are very cute. Thank you. Say hi to all of the reindeer, Mrs. Claus, all of the elves.
Love,
Kate Ryan

Dear Santa,
For Christmas this year, I would like an ice cream machine and a cake-candy-lollipop machine and I want tooty-putty and candy canes. Santa, I hope you’re having a good time.

Here is Zoey’s wish list: toy horses, toy flowers, jewelry, toy Hatchimals, toy Shopkins dolls and a kids sewing machine.

Dear Santa,
Santa has to go to Walmart to get the purple and red Transformer. You have to use your magic to make a chimney there, because that’s how Santa gets into the homes but there’s no chimney in Walmart. You have to get the biggest Transformer in the world like size 7 and 8. I didn’t do anything bad, and that’s nice. So I’ve been nice.
Brendan Gunner Smith

Dear Santa,
Do you use magical thread to make elves? What is your wig made out of? What is your sled made of? I want Legos for Christmas.
Love,
Jack Herron

Dear Santa,
How do you live forever? I really want roller skates. Thank you.
Love,
Genevieve

Dear Santa,
I have been very good this year and promise to be good next year, too. I would like a trampoline for Christmas this year. I would also like my grandma to feel better so I can see her more often. Thank you Santa.
Love,
Mika Bainum

Dear Santa,
I’ve been doing well. How do your reindeer fly? How do you get across the world in one night? Do you get breaks? I want green wrapping paper.
Love,
Max Marrs

Dear Santa,
How do you get around the world in one night? I want a remote control car. Do you have a favorite toy? How long do you have to work?
Love,
Chloe Barron Fox

Dear Santa,
How many elves do you have? I want every budy to bee happy. How do you survive in the North Pole? How cold it is it in the North Pole?
Love,
Henry Walsh

Dear Santa,
How do your elves work? Santa, do you have to work all year? I want a drum set so I can rock out.
Love,
Piper Wetxler

Dear Santa,
How do your elves stay still all day long? How do you get around the world in one night? What are your reindeers’ names? And I want another stuffed animal elephant.
Love,
Hadley Spillane

Dear Santa,
We are writing to you because we have questions. One, do you have magical powers? Two, how do your raindeer fly? Three, I would like some toys. Four, how do you fly around the world in one second?
Love,
Tesher Feinberg

Dear Santa,
How are you? My year was OK. My friend came to my school, and now, we are best friends. The middle school dance was terrible. My friends asked my crush to dance with me, but he said no. All I really want for Christmas from you is someone to say yes to me, but I know you’re not capable (not in a bad way.) I want a BB8 droid and the control watch that comes with it. You are a great person. You know you bring us presents at a certain time of year for no reason other than to make us closer to our families.
Thank you,
Kelsey
P.S. Merry Christmas!

Dear Santa,
Can you please bring me: make your own laptop set, flamingo slippers, big doughnut blanket with Izzy on it and Hawaii hat and shirt?
Thank you,
Izzy

Dear Santa,
Please come to my house and I want a iPad and a cat. That’s it.
Love,

Dear Santa,

Dear Santa,
How do your reindeer fly? I want a electric snowboard.
Love,

Dear Santa,
I don’t know what I want for Christmas. I think I just want it to snow and people to be kind to each other.
Love,
Emi Goldsmith, 8
