Is it Appropriate to Send Hanukkah Greetings
Christmas is often associated with mailing Christmas cards to those you hold dear. This tradition may be considered more of a Christian custom and may not be observed by other religions. There's a wide variety of approaches to Christmas traditions like this and some Jewish individuals choose to participate and others may choose to not particiate at all. To respect your family and friends, you can ask them about their preferences as it relates to sending greeting cards. Personalized Hanukkah cards provide a custom touch by adding a family photo and special message. You can also find Hanukkah cards that are more generic yet inspirational, funny and cute!
What to Say in Hanukkah Cards
There are a variety of sentimental expressions you can include in Hanukkah greeting cards. To wish someone a Happy Hanukkah, use "Hanukkah Sameach!" You can craft your own message using general and traditional words like peace, hope, blessings, miracles, commemorate and reflection. One example of a message you can include on a Hanukkah card is, "Wishing your family peace and light this holiday season." Another example is, "Thinking of you during this season of miracles."
If you're giving a Hanukkah card to a child, incorporate words like fun and happy. An example for children is, "Wishing you eight special nights that are filled with a ton of love and fun!" For families who are celebrating both Christmas and Hanukkah, you can include messages revolving around the words of meaning, connection and love. You can craft something along the lines of, "Sending holiday wishes during this meaningful time of year." Make these statements even more personal by handwriting them.
