I’m making holiday cards with my son’s third grade class. These cards will be going in “blessing bags” of toiltries that they are assembling. Ultimately, they will be distributed at a homeless shelter.

I talked with a few kids about what is planned and I think - no, I KNOW that I need to come up with a list of phrases that they can write in the cards. The phrases some kids suggested, although well-meaning, are probably not the best for a holiday card (for example, “I’m sorry you don’t have a house”, “Merry Christmas! I hope you get a job”, etc.). You get the picture.

Please help me come up with a list. I’d like some phrases to be “holiday neutral”.

I‘ll include the basics so they can verify spelling, but I’d like to give them ideas for something more meaningful too:

Merry Christmas

Happy Holidays

Wishing you a Happy New Year

Peace and joy this holiday season

What else?

Thanks!
