It’s the night before Easter and if you’re still surfing for last-minute printables, you’ve come to the right page! Here’s a list of our most popular – all you need is a printer, possibly a pair of scissors, and the children tucked up in bed.
Oh, and we wish you and yours a very happy Easter! Thank you for visiting our website, we hope you’ll come again. xxxx
This is our newest Easter Bunny letter and it was created this year, so it’s definitely one your child won’t have had before. Just print it and leave it somewhere for him/her to find on Easter Morning.
If you’d rather avoid a long letter or note, let your little one know the Easter Bunny has been with his paw print on a little card. You’ll need to print it and fold it as directed.
This is a nice certificate to leave with the Easter Bunny’s eggs. Just print then write your child’s name and the date on it. (Unless you are the real Easter Bunny, you might need to disguise your handwriting!)
This amusing little note shows the Easter Bunny at his humorous best. It’s ideal for boys or girls and great fun to leave with their Easter eggs to be found on Easter Morning.
Easter Bunny Letter: Trouble with Sugar Toothed Worms
This is just a quick post to let you know that this year, we will be adding free full-length letters from the Easter Bunny to our site. The first one’s up already and we hope to have more by around the middle of February.
For anyone wondering what Easter Bunny letters are for, it’s the same sort of idea as father Christmas. The Easter Bunny visits on the night before Easter and, provided the children have been good of course, leaves behind a gift of chocolate eggs. Our letters are meant as an accompaniment to this gift and they tell of Easter Bunny’s magical journey to your house or about the adventures he has had in the run up to Easter. They’re basically little stories which can be read on Easter Day.
Families have varying traditions when it comes to where the eggs are left on Easter morning, some Easter Bunnies hide them around around the house or garden, some leave them near a sleeping child’s bed. We try to make our letters as broad as possible when it comes to this sort of thing, so that they’ll apply to everyone. While we recognise that easter is a special religious occasion for many families, we don’t include any religious content in our letters. Again, this is simply so that they can be enjoyed by everyone.
Wherever you are and however you celebrate, we wish you and your family a truly happy Easter this year and if our letters or other printables have been of some use to you, the pleasure’s ours.
All the best,
The People at Rooftop Post xx

For fans of our Father Christmas letters, we’ve just added another free one for you to print and read to your child. It’s a letter for before Christmas, we’ve entitled it “The Knotty North Wind“, and it’s great for anyone wanting to get the kids excited… and hopefully being good!
Father Christmas Letter: The Knotty North Wind
Like all our letters, it tells a story. This time, Father Christmas finds a rather unusual character in trouble on his roof – the North Wind.
The North Wind
The North Wind is a lovely character who crops up in quite a few of our stories and is one of Father Christmas’s very old friends. He’s in a spot of trouble in this letter, having got caught up in a string of tinsel, bit not to worry, as with his usual good cheer and just a touch of magic, Father Christmas finds a way to set him free.
We hope you enjoy this letter, as with all our Christmas letters, they are written by Santa with a little help from Leone Annabella Betts.
There are lots of summer printables for kids scattered throughout this site but here are a few of the favourites. We hope you enjoy them.
1.Fairy Colouring Summer is a great time to do some fairy colouring. Make use of these printable pictures of fairies for your child to colour in. Pictures include:
3.Summer Party Bags Great for summer parties of all kinds and a cool way of getting the kids to “help” you. Just print them out, stick the flaps down and fill with goodies for your party guests.
Thank You for Having Me to Stay During the Summer Holidays
Useful little note for kids to print out and fill in to say thank you for having me to stay during the summer holidays. A favourite for children of the thoughtful kind.
This one is for the end of the summer holidays. In it, Father Christmas thanks your child for being good over the summer and says he hopes he/she will keep it up until Christmas. In our house, a word from Santa brings a smile amid that back to school gloom!
Get the kids to help you prepare for the Fourth of July by letting them make the cupcake wrappers. Lots of pretty, patriotic designs to choose from. Have a great day!
Finally, if you browse our party invitations, you’ll find a few that could come in handy for the summer, such as the barbeque, picnic invitation and summer garden party invitation.
The 25th of January is just around the corner. Are you getting ready to celebrate one of Scotland’s favourite sons, that wondrous poet and lyricist, Robert Burns?
Then why not hang a few of the bard’s words around your home?
We hope you’ll find our Burns bunting and other printable Burns Night decorations useful – and that you have a great time.

We’ve had a look at our web stats and we thought seeing as Christmas is just around the corner, you might like to know what the most popular Christmas downloads are this year. Here’s the list, counting down from 10. Merry Christmas from us all!
A bit of a surprise at number 9, as we created these as an afterthought. It’s nice to think that lots of people might be having parties this December though… hope you have fun!
This is a fun little note which reminds the recipient to be good in the run up to Christmas because the elves will be watching. The twist is that the whole thing is written in mirror-writing. Just print it out, get your child to hold it in front of a mirror and Father Christmas’ secret words will become clear.
This one’s a classic. A great letter for any child to open on Christmas morning and read that only a few short hours ago, Father Christmas was right there, dropping off his/her presents. It’s sheer magic. And we expect the downloads of this letter to sky-rocket in the few days before Christmas.
Age Range: Obviously, parents know their own children best when it comes to what they’ll read, but we think this letter is best suited to those aged around 7 and up.
Wow! We had no idea our snowman soup poem would be popular enough to make this list. It just goes to show, running a site like this takes a lot of guess-work and you are always surprising us. Anyway, hope you’re all enjoying snowman soup Santa style.
This is a lovely letter, both magical and comical in tone. We expected it to be fairly popular and we were right. We can’t tell which children parents are printing out for, obviously, but friends and family have told us this one goes down well with boys.

To be honest, this didn’t surprise us. It’s one of our favourite letters from Santa and is a nice, gentle read for any child. The pretty illustrations around the edge of the letter make it look extra magical and if you print it and tie it up with a ribbon it’s more or less a guaranteed smile on your little one’s face.

Well, looks like there are a lot of parents with nice children using the Rooftop Post site!
This lovely certificate is officially our most popular resource in December 2013 so far.
It comes in two versions. One you can write your child’s name on with a pen or an editable PDF you can type on before printing. (You might want to keep in mind that the PDF one may not display correctly if you’re not using Adobe reader.) We’re really pleased people have found this certificate so useful and will look into creating similar certificates in the future.
It’s completely free – all we ask is that you share it via Facebook, Twitter or LinkedIn before you download it.
This particular letter is called “Dropping Off Your Presents” and it’s a good all-rounder; that’s to say you can give it to pretty much any child. In it, Father Christmas charts his journey from the North Pole to your house and tells of the magical happenings along the way. It’s a gentle, amusing letter and we hope you’ll find it useful.
If you are looking for a letter that congratulates a child on being well-behaved all year, this is also an excellent choice.
Of course, you can also still get all three letters completely free from this website – the ebook is simply for the convenience of those who like to use it to read to their children from an e-reader, or even a PDF file.
As you would expect, we’ve included lots of colourful illustrations from the letters and dotted them throughout the text. For those of you whose children like such things, there are also three spot the difference games at the back of the book, for an extra bit of fun.
We have no real idea about how popular this ebook is going to be, but if it turns out that parents like it, we’ll make more. As most of you may know, we no longer create personalised letters because over the last couple of years, there simply wasn’t enough demand. However, we do hope you get some use out of this ebook and that it affords your little ones some magical tales.
To all who purchase it – thank you very much! We’ll feed any royalties back into our business and keep bringing you all the magic we can. x
P.S. If you’re helping Father Christmas by printing our free letters for your children this year, you can always watch this short crafting video to help you get the best out them.
A Letter from Father Christmas: “Father Christmas and the Christmas Tree”
Ah, September! The summer holidays roll to a close and with the start of the new term comes our latestnew Father Christmas letter – completely free for you to print out.
If you’re looking for ways to get your child excited about Christmas early, not to mention a little reminder about how important it is to be good, then this letter is well worth a look. We’ve been told by many parents that they like to read our Santa letters as bedtime stories and we think this one is a particularly nice choice for that, as thoughts of friendly talking Christmas trees are nice to drift off to. It’s a letter suitable for boys and girls and we hope they enjoy it.
For further Father Christmas story-letters, don’t forget to keep an eye on our “New” page, we’ve a couple more on the way.
We’ve called this one “Building a Fairy Path” and it is all about how the Tooth Fairy uses the tooth she has just collected (from your child) to help make a white path into a magical forest. The path is much-needed because the trees of the forest have a habit of moving around a lot which makes it very easy for travellers to get lost.
We think this letter is delightful – it’s packed with the usual magic and cute illustrations. Another thumbs up from us to the creator of our letters, Leone Annabella Betts. Like all our letters from the Tooth Fairy, “Building a Fairy Path” is suitable for any child who has lost a tooth and is due a visit. As many of you already know, we ask that you share a link to the letter on Facebook/Twitter/LinkedIn before downloading it. Thank you in advance to all those who do this – spreading the word is what keeps our little website going.
So what’s next? We’ve got at least one more full-length Tooth Fairy letter coming before the year is out, but now that September is nearly upon us, our attention will naturally turn to Halloween then Christmas. (Excitingly, this year’s full-length Father Christmas letters are being written and illustrated right this minute!) For the next Tooth Fairy letter though, be sure to watch this page, or simply keep up with us on Facebook.
There’s not much other news for now but we hope you have fun with the new letter and that you’ll visit us again soon.
