Frequently asked questions

What do you write in a Christmas card for your dad?

Something warm about a Christmas memory, a thank-you, and a joke if that's your style - dads love a pun.

What is a good example of christmas Card Messages For Dad?

"Merry Christmas, Dad!" is one of 9 examples on this page. Pick the one closest to the tone you want, then add a specific detail of your own - a shared memory, a date, a name - so it reads as yours rather than copied.

Can I copy these messages word for word?

Yes. Everything on this page is free to copy, print and read out - no permission or credit needed. Changing one detail so it fits the person is all we would suggest.

How long should a card message be?

One to three lines suits most cards. Write the message before the name so you can start again if it goes wrong, and if you run out of room, carry on inside the back cover rather than shrinking your handwriting.
