There’s nothing better than a homemade Christmas card, and if it’s a little silly, even better.

These fun “tongue-sticking” reindeer cards will get your kids or students excited to start writing letters. First, assemble them and then write your seasonal greeting or wish list to Santa on the tongue.

The tongue is neatly folded inside the card and when you open it, you can pull it out to see the full message. Fun right?
