Santa's Gift tags - free printable



So my oldest daughter (5) is finally at that age where she wants to know more about where her Christmas gifts are coming from...not just what she gets.
The questions about Santa are coming at me faster then I can answer them...and some of them are getting tricky!

There are the usual ones..

"How does Santa carry all that stuff?"
"How does Santa get to everyone's house in ONE night, and it takes us a whole day to get to my cousins house in the car?"
"Doesn't Santa get full eating on all those cookies?

and some more difficult ones...

"How does Santa get down our chimney if we have a gas fireplace?"
"How does Santa know when I am sleeping so he come inside?"
"Who brings Santa his presents?"

It started last year when she noticed that Santa had the SAME wrapping paper as we did! hmmm?...! what a coincidence
Santa also seemed to write her name the SAME as I did! wow?...another coincidence 

So this year I needed to get more creative...and clever

I bought a secret roll of wrapping paper that will be for Santa's gifts only, a very festive, colourful and covered in cartoon santas paper...not my style, but perfect for the workshop


And for the gift tags, I made some "special delivery" tags to make everything legit....authentic and direct from the North Pole


As long as my writing can be different enough...I am hoping to be in the clear this year ( I will let you know how it goes after the 25th)


And I know some of you are having the same troubles as I am, so to make things a little easier I have made the tags into a pdf for you to download and use!
yay!

Each sheet prints out 8 gift tags, you can download them here


Just print them up on some cardstock, cut, holepunch and your done...


you can even write with your non-dominant hand to make it more authentic :)


enjoy
