Every Christmas Eve children from all around anticipate the arrival of Santa Claus.

As part of this process, they began this ritual weeks earlier sending their Christmas wishes to the North Pole for Santa and his elves to begin stock piling their requests.

Santa Claus has received the many wishes from the children in our readership area and has shared their wishes with The Times. Look in Saturday&8217;s edition for the publishing of all the children&8217;s letters to Santa.
