This year, we did a personalized photo holiday card that says Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. A handful of LO's friends are Jewish and don't celebrate Christmas. Would it be offensive to send them a card?
Since there are several people in LO's playgroup that do celebrate Christmas, I would prefer to either send a card to all, or a card to no one in the group (with stronger preferences for the former).
Re: Christmas Card Etiquette?
Ok, so I started reading this and thought - heck, it's about the kids - who cares. But then I thought... some people read into the messages on cards. So... I don't know.
I'm a teacher that understands the "one or none" idea. But, maybe when you receive the cards - you can cut the front off and mount the fronts onto another card that says something nonreligious..... just a though.
I am Jewish, so I don't send Christmas cards (ours say "Happy Holidays" or "Happy New Year"), but I love to get them! Nothing offensive, to me, in being included in someone else's holiday
ETA: Maybe you can make sure to wish them a happy hanukkah when you see them in person, so they know you understand that they don't celebrate Christmas.
And then there are lovely people like the above in the world that make any holiday fun, no matter religion. Go you!
Ha ha, thanks! Isn't the point of holidays to have fun?
