MOUNT VERNON, NY — Writing a letter to Santa is a treasured tradition for many Mount Vernon families. They’re a lens into the magic of the holiday season through the eyes of a child.

We’ve partnered with T-Mobile so we can all share in their joy. This letter, submitted by Eloisa Tejada in Mount Vernon, was written by 12-year-old Laila:

"Hi Santa, I've been trying my hardest this year and everything is going good. School is going good. I do bracelets and sell them around my town so I would just like to know if you could just send me a bracelet set so I can make more bracelets and make people happy, thank you Santa love Laila 🌺🙏🏼🌺"

Santa is waiting to hear from your kids, too. Click here to fill out the form, and you can submit a photo if you’d like.

Please note: Your (child’s) letter may be shared with your community to help spread holiday cheer. All fulfillment requests need to be routed separately to the North Pole and/or Santa himself. In other words, these letters are just for fun: Santa won’t be checking the lists on Patch.
