Decorating Christmas tree ornaments and making holiday gifts with stamps from around the world are just two of the fun activities for children and adults at this year’s Holiday Family Day
Visitors can also do holiday stamp hunts and games, create their own holiday stamp designs, make stamp mosaics and see displays of Christmas stamps from the USA and worldwide.
Volunteers will demonstrate how to make holiday cards and envelopes and free postage will be provided to send them to friends.
Children can write their letters to Santa Claus and post them in the Museum’s North Pole mailbox.
A unique North Pole museum cancellation will be added to all letters and Santa has told the museum he will write back.
We also expect a visit from our talking British mailbox.
Children can have their picture taken and made into a special postage stamp.
Exhibits in the galleries include “Bicycles on Stamps,” “Beyond White Gloves.
The One Hundred Year History of the Katharine Gibbs Secretarial School,' “ The History of Rural Free Delivery,” and “Comics on Stamps.”
Tips about how to start a stamp collection will be offered and each child can make a free collection of holiday stamps to take home.

Appointments can also be made that day for people to bring in their collections for an evaluation for a fee.
The museum’s gift shop will be open and is stocked with great holiday stamp related gifts..
