Tradition #7 - Sending Halloween Cards
Connecting with family and friends during any
holiday season, including Halloween, is a great way to let
them know that you are thinking of them! You'd think with
all the Halloween cards available that people would send
them every year but not according to The
Great Halloween Survey website, 74% of the people
answered "No, they would not be sending Halloween cards".
That's just sad! We always send out Halloween cards every
year!
Halloween Cards
Sending someone a card,
no matter what the occasion is, can really bring some cheer
into their day. It shows that you took the time to actually
do something special for them. Whether you buy, hand make or print your
own Halloween cards, send some out this year and then do it
every year! If you had great Halloweens as a child, be sure
and add a memory or two when sending them to parents and
siblings. If you have friends in other parts of the country,
send them one so they know you are thinking of them at this
fun time of year.
You can find
great selections of Halloween cards at retail stores, print
your own out using your computer and printer along with a
card making program or hand make them if you are into
crafting and card making.
Halloween Newsletter
Sending
out a Halloween Newsletter to our friends and family is a
lot of fun and a great way to let everyone know what you
will be doing for Halloween this year. We've done this for
years and everyone we send one to seems to love receiving
them!
We try to
keep our Halloween Newsletter to just a few pages in length.
You can use almost any word processing software, such as MS
Word, or a full fledged publishing program like MS Publisher
to make a very presentable newsletter.
The
newsletter should include your family's plans for Halloween
and could also include trivia, tips, poems, recipes, etc.
Pictures add visual excitement to a newsletter, but try not
to put more than one picture on each page, otherwise the
page will look cluttered, plus it will save ink when
printing the newsletter out.
While it may
sound like a trivial thing, sending out Halloween cards to
family and friends can really brighten their day when they
find it in their mail box! |
