Alternatives to Traditional Christmas Letters - Create Your Own Holiday eBook

Send holiday greetings this year by sending a holiday ebook. A more visual story of the year, a holiday ebook provides the perfect alternative to traditional Christmas letters.

To create unique season's greetings, you'll just need a computer and standard presentation software program like Open Office or Microsoft PowerPoint. Open a new presentation and select an existing holiday template or create one of your own. Then let your creativity flow.

When designing a holiday ebook, the first slide should be designed similar to a traditional book cover. Treat the inside pages like those of a pages in a picture book. To make your holiday ebook unique, include items like artwork your child created, pictures from plays and sports events, vacation images and any other interesting achievements that happened throughout the year.

Or for a completely different, yet creative approach consider creating a holiday ebook filled with your favorite cookie recipes to share with friends and family this year. Include images, pictures of your families making the items. A holiday ebook can be as little or small as you want it to be. Just be creative and have fun with this project. Once you are satisfied with the design, save the presentation as a PDF file that can be easily attached to an e-mail.

Send Season Greetings with Environmentally-Friendly Holiday Ebooks

Not only will your holiday greetings be unlike any other your friends and family receive, you'll also save money on postage and paper. Holiday ebooks are environmentally-friendly too, since they don't require paper or use fuel and transportation resources to deliver to friends and family.

A holiday ebook can also makes a nice gift for grandparents and other family members. Simply upload the PDF file of the holiday ebook to any local print shop and they can print and bind the book for you for relatively low cost. Consider printing one for yourself to have on hand to enjoy for years to come.

Forget the traditional Christmas letter this year and create a one-of-a-kind holiday ebook to send to family and friends instead. This visual holiday greeting is one that your friends and family will remember
