Holiday Cards
by Janet
Holian
In the United States, the holiday season typically refers to
the period of holidays during the winter time. The holiday season is considered
to begin with Thanksgiving and end on New Years Day. Several holidays are
celebrated by visiting friends and family, exchanging gifts, and mailing or
hand-delivering Holiday Cards. The most celebrated holiday during the winter
time is Christmas. According to the United States Census Bureau, Americans send
out approximately 1.9 billion Christmas cards each year, making Christmas the
most popular card-sending holiday in the United States.
Holiday Cards can be purchased for the variety of holidays
during the winter season, including Thanksgiving, Advent, St. Nicholas Day,
Hanukkah, Christmas, Kwanzaa and New Years Eve and Day. The most popular
Holiday Card is the Christmas card. Most people prefer to mail their Holiday
Cards. However, hand-delivering cards allows you to spread your holiday cheer
in person. Whether you mail or hand-deliver, Holiday Cards are a great way to
show friends and loved ones you are thinking of them this holiday season.
Holiday Card content ranges from truly religious images and
symbols to purely secular references. Religious images include the Three Wise
Men, the Star of Bethlehem and a variety of nativity scenes. Secular holiday
cards include winter images such as snowmen and sledding or common holiday
activities such as holiday parties and present shopping.
