Instructions for Grown Ups

Dear Grown up,
The Workshop team has worked very hard to come up with a secure system to allow kids to send letters to Sunshine Santa and to post stories to this site, but it means that they need your help to do it. To create a letter to Sunshine Santa, or post a story, please follow these instructions,
 
Step 1. A parent or guardian must have a user account. We will send more more important instructions for "Grown Ups Only," so please don't use your child's email address. Click this link to create an account.
 
Step 2. Once you have created the account, please check your email inbox, as you will receive an email to confirm your address is correct. Follow the instructions in that email to complete the account set up process.
 
Step 3. If you already have an account, you should be able to log in using the "User login" block to the right.
 
Step 4. Now, once you have logged in you should be able to post a story or send a letter to Santa by clicking on the link below.

Why is this so complicated?
The reason for this complication is that it ensures that the letter or story by the child is not visible by other users of the website. In fact it is only visible by owner of the account. In addition it also ensures that a parent or guardian can also completely control the process as they must be present to provide the "log in access." So please, don't lose your login details, as without them your child's stories and letters will no longer be accessible.
 
Cheers
