[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How do you handle Christmas? I invited one of DD's friends to a holiday party at our house and the mom sent email tp confirm that it really was a neutral winter party without any type of Christmas activities. We're not religious at all and she didn't think that there would be anything like praying or whatever very religious people do.  She was concerned whether the cookies and decorations would have a Christmas theme. [/quote]

Different Jewish poster. We do not bring Christmas into our home in any way. When DD was 4 she had me read her a book about Santa at the library, but none are in our home. If we are invited to something churchy or Christmasy we go, and we are happy to bring Christmas presents to your home if you have us for Christmas dinner. However, we will not pray to Jesus. We will bow our heads quietly while you say grace and wait for you to finish before we start eating, but no Jesusing.

I would allow DD to attend your holiday party, even if some of your cookies had Santas on them. DD knows not to blow the Santa secret, on penalty of death. [/quote]
