Harlem 8-Year-Old Shares Christmas Wish In Letter To Santa

Patch has partnered with T-Mobile to share local children's letters to Santa this holiday season.

HARLEM, NY — Writing a letter to Santa is a treasured tradition for many Harlem 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 Robert Jackson in Harlem, was written by 8-year-old Emmanuella:

"Dear Santa, I like to get a Barbie dream house this Christmas and I’m doing good in school."

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. However, 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.
