Santa-Claus-Christmas-Letters.com Assists Parents in Building Self-Esteem in Children
(PRWEB) November 26, 2007 -- Santa-Claus-Christmas-Letters.com, located in Staatsburg, New York is pleased to announce their intent to utilize letters from Santa to help parents boost self esteem in their children. Designating themselves as the ?most personalized Santa letter on the ?net?, the business sends Santa letters from the North Pole. These Santa letters are special as they let parents tell their children how proud they are for their accomplishments of the previous year.
Owner Laurie Wajda said ?Kids do some pretty amazing things, but it seems the focus in the news is more on the bad eggs than the good ones. I just want kids to be able to recognize that they are pretty great. Who better to deliver the message than Santa?? There is also an optional paragraph feature in each letter so that parents can speak in their own voice, but through Santa?s mouth.
Laurie Wajda, born and raised in Poughkeepsie, New York is a mother of four. She is a huge proponent of using Santa?s influence on children to make them realize the good in them rather than to make them be good. She was inspired by her oldest daughter to start sending letters, when she came home from kindergarten crying because someone told her there was no Santa.
Residing in the Hudson Valley now for 40 years, her work is focused on making the world a bit brighter for children. Each year, she picks a children?s cause or charity to donate to; this year her focus is on the Make A Wish Foundation and will donate part of her proceeds to her local chapter. She says it is very rewarding to know she?s helped, even if in only a small way.
As a parent, Laurie says she knows what it's like to shop for two months and have Christmas built up from August to December in the malls. Then on Christmas day paper flies and the excitement is over in ten minutes?her family joke is that the kids play more with the boxes! She started sending these Christmas letters to her kids as a way to build them up for more than just a day. They run to the mailbox to see what Santa has to say about THEM and then they remember that all through the Holidays. She says it makes the spirit of Christmas last for weeks instead of just minutes?
Laurie?s Santa letters can be ordered from November 25th through December 15th. For more information go to http://www.santa-claus-christmas-letters.com or call 1-646-222-0429
