A card makes every gift more personal. With a few words you let someone know you are thinking of them, whether it is for a birth, a birthday, a christening or a pregnancy. At Tiny Giggles you will find greeting cards for the most special moments with children: large cards with an envelope from Andersons and cheerful mini cards from Hallmark that you can simply hang on a gift. Below you can read which cards there are, which size suits which moment and what you can write in them.
Greeting cards for every moment
This collection brings all the cards together. Looking for a card for a particular occasion? Then go straight to the right group:
Large cards from Andersons
The greeting cards from Andersons are about 13 x 19 cm and come with a matching envelope. They have English texts, such as "It's A Baby Girl", "A Brand New Baby Boy", "Congratulations", "Happy Birthday – Time To Celebrate" and "It's Your Birthday Today – Party Time". Thanks to the large size, you have plenty of room for a personal message. These cards are ideal for posting or for handing over during a visit to the new parents, and they often get a nice spot on the cupboard or windowsill.
Mini cards from Hallmark
The mini cards from Hallmark are small and cheerful: about 7.5 x 7.5 cm or 5 x 7 cm. They have Dutch texts, such as "Hallo Kleine Jongen" (hello little boy), "Hoera een lief klein meisje geboren" (hooray, a sweet little girl is born), "Dikke Kus" (big kiss), "Fijne Verjaardag" (happy birthday) and "Gefeliciteerd" (congratulations) for a pregnancy. There is no text inside, so you write a short wish yourself. Hang a mini card on a gift with a ribbon or stick it on the parcel. That way everyone knows straight away who the gift is from.
Which card suits your moment?
- Visiting a newborn: a birth card from Andersons with envelope, or a mini card on the baby gift.
- Birthday: a large birthday card to post, or a mini card with confetti or balloons on the gift.
- Pregnancy: the "Gefeliciteerd" mini card with a small gift for the parents-to-be.
- Christening: the "Happy Christening Day" card with envelope.
- Just because: "Dikke Kus" is a sweet card to let someone know you are thinking of them.
What do you write in a greeting card?
Many people find it hard to find the right words. A few tips:
- Birth: congratulate the parents and mention the baby's name. For example: "Warm congratulations on the birth of your daughter. Enjoy this special time together."
- Birthday: keep it cheerful and personal. For example: "Hooray, you are 3! Have a wonderful day and lots of fun with your present."
- Pregnancy: share the joy. For example: "What wonderful news! We can't wait to meet the little one."
- Christening: a warm wish for the future. For example: "Lots of love and happiness on this special day."
Write your wish with a pen that does not smudge and let the ink dry before you put the card in the envelope. If you are posting a card, write the address clearly and add a stamp.

Make it a party
A birthday, a baby shower or a welcome party becomes even more festive with some decorations. Hang up a cheerful garland, line up the greeting cards on the cupboard and let your child help open the cards. Many parents keep the most beautiful cards in a box or a scrapbook, as a reminder of the first years.
Making a card with your child
Let your child help write a greeting card. A toddler can add a scribble or a drawing on the back, a preschooler a heart or a few letters of their own name. A school child can already write a short wish for a friend who is having a birthday. That way your child learns through play that a card makes someone happy. A card with their own drawing for grandma and grandpa or a new baby brother or sister is extra precious, and is often kept for years.
Why a real card?
A message on your phone is quickly sent, but a real card lasts. You can put it on display, read it again and keep it. For children, it is extra fun to receive post with their own name on it. A handwritten card shows you took the time, and that is what makes it special.
