Texting Santa?

Mailing letters to Santa at the North Pole? Hand-writing thank you notes for Christmas sweaters?  Ancient history.

According to a recent survey conducted by free group texting app textPlus, teenagers prefer texting to writing when it comes to holiday traditions. 

Of the 840 13-17-year-olds polled:

  • 72% say they’d rather text a wish list to Santa than mail him a letter (and they can do so, thanks to textPlus: www.textingsanta.com).
  •  61% prefer to say thank you for a present via SMS, not a handwritten note…
  • …and 70% of them said they’d actually prefer to RECEIVE a text thank you instead of a handwritten note
And what will they be doing Christmas morning once all the gifts are open?  74% said they’d be texting with their friends about what they got.
