Kevin Smullin, one of the principal owners of http://www.modern-manners-and-etiquette.com says, "During holiday celebrations, you typically gather with the people that mean the most to you in your life. We believe that these are critical moments to show proper manners and etiquette so that these relationships are developed."

Several major holidays will be coming within the next few months. The website offers tips and ideas on Halloween etiquette, Thanksgiving etiquette, and Christmas etiquette. Why is holiday etiquette so important?

Kevin says. "Take Christmas cards as an example. Many people love to receive a Christmas card because it shows that they are being thought of and that someone cares for them. However, there is an etiquette that goes along with Christmas cards. When someone receives a card a day or two before Christmas, the recipient of the card could feel frustrated and angry that they do not have time to send a card back. In some cases, the card could do more damage than good."

In preparation for the holiday season, prepare with the thought in mind that you are going to use the holidays as a time to cultivate friendships. The information found on this site will teach you the fundamentals of how to do it. After all, manners and etiquette is really nothing more than being thoughtful and considerate of other people's feelings.
