Christmas Tablescape: Letters to Santa

Letters to Santa is a fun theme for young kids.

This tablescape can easily become interactive if you pass out letters and pencils or pens for the kids to write to Santa Claus before or while they eat.

Then they can put them in the mailbox and you can assure them that the elves or the magic will ensure the letters make it to the North Pole.

This tablescape is easy to replicate as most of the items are easy to find.

Directions on how to assemble this Christmas Tablescape: Letters to Santa

I put a white tablecloth down on the table, set out the plasticware (cutlery, plates, cocktail napkins, plastic cups), etc. and placed a letter to Santa napkin on the plate.

I put the Santa mailbox in the center of the table and put a letter to Santa in it.

Next, I put the wooden beaded garland down the center of the table.

I set out little letters to Santa ornaments and post box ornaments on the table and tucked them into the wooden bead garland to make them look like one cohesive decoration.
