Easy Classmate Christmas cards?

They must make those cards like they do for Valentine's Day where the kids can just write the names on "from" and "to" lines. Where can I find them? I couldn't find them in my online search... Helping my Kindergartner spell the names is all I can handle at this point. I'm not crafty, everyone in the family is sick and we have a lot of things to get done. Thanks!

ETA - cards were requested by teacher, I guess as part of class celebration. It's a Catholic school.

On vday our school asks you just write who it's from so they don't have to help kids hand them out by name. I would just write "to my friend" and from so and so. Or skip it altogether.

I wouldn't bother unless you know every single person in the class celebrates Christmas.

Easy Classmate Christmas cards?

I don’t think my kids have ever received a Christmas card from their classmates. Its a nice thought but I wouldn’t even bother.

Haha. I'm sure there are people who love it. I'm just a little overwhelmed right now, coming back from vacation with all of us sick and being completely unprepared for Christmas. Plus, DH is working even later than usual. So, just trying to do it the easiest way.

I just got boxes of Christmas cards from the dollar store. My kindergartener just signed his name on his. No to or from. He just signed his name. Then he distributed them in his classmates mailboxes. My first graders sat down with a list of their classmates and wrote the out to and from. We put the kids names on the envelopes and each kid in class has a number. We wrote that number on the envelope too and were asked to keep the cards in number order. I would just get cards from the dollar store and have your child sign their name and everyone gets a card.

Right?? What a PITA. Not to mention that I’m sure they are kids that don’t even celebrate Christmas!

I remember having to do this every year in Catholic school. I loved it! One of the moms from the class would make a big mailbox and all the kids would put their cards in and then the teacher would hand them out.

I would just buy cutsey, kid-friendly boxed christmas cards and have him write in the kids names and his name.

You could also probably print cards out online - but, I would probably do the cutesy boxed cards.
