Angelina Jolie helps her children with letters to Santa

Jolie-Pitt family outing to post handwritten Christmas wish lists

It seems even the Jolie-Pitts are getting ready for the festive season. Mum-of-six Angelina Jolie and her kids have been spotted posting their letters to Santa Claus.

The actress and her children – Maddox, 11, Pax, 8, Zahara, 7, Shiloh, 6, and 4-year-old twins Knox and Vivienne – were seen in the small English village of Littlebourne, in Kent, sending handwritten wish-lists.

Speaking to People.com, Post Office assistant Fiona Lindsay said: “It was so cute. All the children sent messages to Father Christmas and were absolutely beautifully behaved.

“Just like any other kids in a sweet shop they were excited, but Angelina controlled them perfectly.

“The children bought a packet of sweets each, plus a few toys and some magazines. They were just a bunch of gorgeous, happy kids.”

A recent survey by the Disney Store revealed that a third of parents admitted to having no plans to write a letter with their child despite the tradition being a fond childhood memory.

If you’re keen to keep this festive tradition alive, visit a Disney Store across the UK and enjoy a free letter writing workshop and let your little one drop their wish-list in the Magical Post Box.

According to the Royal Mail, 750,000 letters are sent to Santa in the run up to Christmas every year.
