From the north pole to Middle-earth: Tolkien's Christmas letters to his children | JRR Tolkien | The Guardian

Read Letters From Father Christmas online free by J. R. R. Tolkien

Merry Christmas folks! If you need help getting in the spirit - here is a great article about Tolkien's illustrated Christmas letters exhibited by the Bodleian library. I have further attached a link to many of the letters themselves.

"Dear boys,

My paw is better. I was cutting Christmas trees when I hurt it. Don’t you think my writing is much better too? Father Christmas is very bisy already. So am I. We have had hevy snow and sum of our messengers got buerried and sum lost: that is whi you have nt herd lately.

Love to John for his birthday. Father Christmas says my English spelling is not good. I kant help it. We don’t speak English here, only Arktik (which you don’t know. We also make our letters different—I have made mine like Arktik letters for you to see. We always rite? for T and V for U. This is sum Arktik langwidge wich means “Goodby till I see you next and I hope it will bee soon.” - Mára mesta an ni véla tye ento, ya rato nea.

P. B.

My real name is Karhu but I don’t tell most peeple.

P.S. I like letters and think Cristofers are nice"

Tolkien's Christmas letter to his sons acting as Karhu the Polar Bear, who speaks "Arktik", an Quenya-adjacent language.
