Funny Christmas cards for your grandson
Funny cards for a grandson get the best reactions when the joke is a bit of a conspiracy, between you and him against the grown-ups. Hidden biscuits, extra pocket money, who is allowed to stay up late. Keep it light and a bit cheeky. His parents will roll their eyes, and he will remember it.
3 things to write inside
Swap in their name. Change anything that doesn’t sound like you.
- funny Merry Christmas, [first name]. I have hidden the good biscuits where your mum will not look. I will show you after lunch. This is a secret, so do not say a word.
- funny Dear [first name], I am old, but I can still beat you at one game, and I will not say which one. Merry Christmas. Rematch on Boxing Day.
- funny [first name], I have been told I spoil you. I would like to see the evidence. Merry Christmas, little mate. There may be a surprise in my bag.
Questions people ask
What do I write in a Christmas card for my grandson?
Keep it warm and personal. Mention something he did this year, say you are proud, and tell him you love him. A line about a game you play together or a day out you shared will mean more to him than any general verse.
Can I send a card to my grandson if I live far away?
Yes. You pick a card, write your words and send the link by email or text, usually to his parent. They can open it with him on Christmas morning, like an envelope, and he gets to hear from you even if you cannot be there.
How do I send a card to a grandson who is too young to use a phone?
Send it to his mum or dad. Schedule it for Christmas morning and ask them to open it with him and read the inside line out loud. Little ones love hearing a grandparent's voice, even through a parent.
