Are thank you notes obsolete? Ticklebellies Coupon Offer

Recently, we have attended 2 birthday parties. As expected, we showed up with smiles and a carefully wrapped gift. As has become common these days, we did not watch the birthday boy unwrap the presents. WE were thanked for coming and off we went…… it has now been over a month and I have yet to receive a thank you card. I do not know if it is because I spent 10+ years in the south or if I just have high expectations, but I was truly disappointed. I admit- I am a sucker for small gestures such as thank you cards. So I was excited to come across these very easy to use cards by Ticklebellies. Ticklebellies is known for their whimsical and fun stationary. These cards are pre-filled with slots to write in. Perfect for the busy mom!I think these are a great tool for school age children as they just have to fill in their name, gift received, and what they thought about the gift. And I am all for teaching our kids to be respectful, courteous and grateful. I hope good manners never go out of style.

  1. I wrote a similar post regarding “thank you notes” and kids parties last week… with one exception.

    Those fill-in the blank cards… Hate them. Sure, they’re perfect and totally cute for school-aged kids to use, but I think parents can show a bit more effort…

    Is 17 words really THAT much more effort?

    Just my opinion :-)

  2. Of course, opinions are always welcome! I agree- a handwritten note is the ideal. BUT, I received no thank you card what-so-ever. A fill in the blank card is better than nothing. Let’s face it- some moms need “little helpers” to accomplish tasks. I am all for things that make busy moms lives a bit easier.
