Dear Father Christmas I’m not sure what I would like for Christmas this year, as I’m not really into anything. I will be happy with what I get anyway. I’m sure I’ve been good enough. Mummy & Daddy may think otherwise!! The magic key & the usual treats will be left out for you and the reindeer’s. Travel safely. Lots of Love Daisy xxx P.S Daddy says he would like some chocolate, a football top & some slippers!!

Dear Santa, This Christmas won’t be the same as others as it’s our first Christmas without our grandad Warren who died in March. We miss him so much and need to make sure mummy and nanny won’t get too sad. We don’t mind if we don’t get much just as long as we all have a lovely time. Happy Christmas! Love George and Charlotte Cook

Dear Santa, I’m not exactly sure what all this Christmas stuff is all about, because I’m new to this world - but it all sounds very exciting! I know Mummy is very excited – she keeps buying me new outfits and pyjamas, I think she wants me to dress up like you too? So you must be pretty special. Mummy says if I’m a good boy, you’ll pop by at Christmas and maybe leave me some presents. She says that we need to leave you a mince pie out too, with a glass of milk and some carrots for your reindeer, so you won’t get hungry on your long journey home. I’m a big fan of milk – so I’ll make sure Mummy leaves you a nice big glass full to fill your tummy up. I’ve never had any presents before, so I’m not sure what I need. I love toys that make lots of noise, and ones that I can pinch and twist. I love to hear stories too, could I maybe have some more of them? I promise to be a good baby, and let Mummy and Daddy have a bit more sleep at night, I’ll do my best to stick to one outfit a day too – but it’s so much fun to throw in a surprise overflowing nappy every now and again! Have a nice Christmas Santa, I can’t wait to meet you in December – Mummy says we’re coming to have a cuddle with you at the zoo! Lots of love, Freddie Piper, 5 months old

Season’s Greetings from all the children and staff! rockinghorsenewbury.co.uk

Dear Santa We have all been very good (most of the time). Please may I have some Hatchimals and dolls. Lottie would like some dolls too, so we can play together. Lottie would also like a unicorn. Eli would like lots of cars and super- heroes to save our dolls. We know your very busy and will try your best. Thank you lots of love Ava 7, Eli 2, and Lottie 2

Dear Santa, My name is Della and I am 1 year old.

My favourite thing to do is ask my Mummy to read me the same books over and over again all day long! For this reason I would love you to bring me some new books for Christmas. I love animals and am learning all of the noises they make. I also love music and will dance at any opportunity, including to the EastEnders theme tune. I look forward to your visit, if you are lucky I might leave you some cookies and milk... if I don’t eat them all first! Love,Della x P.S. I will remind my Daddy not to put the fire on.

Dear Santa I’ve been as good as I can be with a few exceptions. For Christmas this year I’m getting a new baby brother but I didn’t ask for that. What I’d really like is some new choo choo trains a red car like my nanny and some sweeties! Arlo Hillen, 2 years old

Dear Santa I am so excited for Christmas and I will leave you a mince pie and glass of Bailey’s on Christmas Eve and carrots for the reindeer. I am the youngest in my family and my brother Callum and two sisters Tegan and Tori have already made their Christmas lists, but I am already so happy with everything I have that I don’t know what to ask for ! I like playing with the toy kitchen at toddler group though so maybe it would be fun to have one of my own . My dog Rufus hasn’t been very well and I love him so much , I wonder if your magic can help to make him feel a little better so he can enjoy Christmas too Thank you Santa , I love you From Evelyn aged 2

Dear Santa, Thank you for the Lego Technic last year I loved the surprise. This year please can I have another Lego Technic set as I love building and playing with them. I hope that you and all your reindeers are well for Christmas eve. Good Luck. I’ll make sure to leave out some tasty snacks for you and all your reindeers, who all work hard, for when you arrive. Merry Christmas to my Mum, Dad, Jessica, Nan, uncle Ian, amd all my friends. Thank you Sam
