One thing (among many) that I am trying to teach my children is how to show gratitude. I want them to truly express their thanks when they are given a gift.
But…if you’re kids are anything like mine, getting them to sit down and write a thank you card is not an easy task!
I understand that they don’t know what to write, and that for young children, writing lots of notes is beyond their ability. And we all know it’s the thought that counts, so I wanted to make it a little easier on them!
I made some printable Christmas thank you cards and envelopes and I decided to share them with you! There are blank lines after the “thank you” for your kiddos to fill in what they are thankful for.
See my envelope tutorial here for instructions on how to fold the envelope. If you don’t feel like reading it, just make sure you trim off about 1/8″ from the bottom flap. Your printer will probably cut off the bottom line. This will help the top flap to close well.
Feel free to print these, but please respect my copyright (listed below).

Oh my goodness, these are so adorable! I LOVE them! I cannot wait to explore more of your site, I might be here awhile,
Thanks, Brie! I hope you enjoy it! =)
Wow! What an adorable printable! Thank you for sharing! I too write thank you notes for my kiddos gifts and have them color a little inside. These will be perfect!
I love that you have them color inside! That makes it so personal. My littlest one loves to draw “elephants” for people. They look nothing like elephants, but I know the recipients love to see her drawings.
Thank you so much for the Thank You card printable!
You’re welcome! I hope you enjoy it.
Thank you so much for these adorable cards and your wonderful blog! I am striving to be a mom like you and your tools are so helpful!!! (I love your name BTW!)
Ha ha! Love it!
It’s rare to meet someone with my name. I’m glad you stopped by and found some helpful things! =)
Thank you for the cute Thank you notes and envelopes!
You are so welcome! Thanks for dropping by.
Thank you!!
You’re welcome!
Found you through Money Saving Mom – thank you for sharing these! We have thank yous for Christmas plus a Dec. 26 birthday to send out and these will be great! I usually give my 3 yo the choice of coloring or putting stickers in the cards we send since he can’t write yet. I will probably be smarter with these and let him color/sticker them *before* I write in the message, as he enthusiastically colored right over the words of some of our Christmas cards!
You’re welcome. I’m glad they will work well for you. =)
LOVE these! Especially the kids’ nativity scene Thank You. So thank YOU for the thank yous!
=) LOL! You’re welcome!
These are so cute & will help encourage my 7 year old daughter to write thank you notes for her Christmas gifts. Thank You!
Great! I’m glad they will work for you guys!
These are so cute and print out so nicely! Thanks for sharing!
I’m glad to hear that. Sometimes printers can do crazy things.
Thanks for stopping by!
Thank you for sharing these darling cards. I am using The Nativity one.
Glad you like it!
These are SO stinkin’ CUTE!! Thanks so much for sharing! My printer has been hard at work this morning! lol.
Thank you so much! You are very welcome. Enjoy!
Thank you so much for these delightful printables! I have yet to get my little one to sit down “to write” thank-yous for Christmas gifts and these will be a blessing for her pre-writing and desire to trace with the fill-in. The artwork you’ve created/chosen will give her an opportunity to express her personality.
I’m glad to hear that! I hope she enjoys using them.
Such a cute idea, and love your blog! I would love it if you would link this up at my linky party as well! Here is the link http://www.thesouthernproductqueen.com/one-stop-shoppe-linky-party Happy New Year!
