If your kiddo is already saying things they want for Christmas, the United States Postal Service has announced that Jolly Ol' Saint Nick is ready to receive them. Yep, Santa's mailbox is open, and he's accepting letters over 90 days before his intrepid journey around the globe.

 USPS Operation Santa Open Now

Winter tends to start early in Michigan, so it doesn't hurt to have your kids let Santa know their wish list early. The North Pole has terrible reception, so snail mail is still the way to go. All wish lists should be addressed to:

123 Elf Road, North Pole, 88888

Templates for letters are available here. Mail all letters by December 5th.

Adopt A Letter Program

While kids enjoy mailing Santa, the important part comes from generous folks who help Santa by adopting a letter.  The adult portion of the USPS Operation Santa involves magic-making of their own by adopting a letter. Read through all the submissions, pick one that speaks to you, and help create a Christmas Miracle of your own.
