Short New Year’s messages for elementary school kids! Ideas for smile-bringing phrases (81–90)
Let’s make it a year where smiles spread in a chain!
Happiness circulates: when you smile, a joyful feeling wells up, and that feeling brings out even more smiles.
This message carries the hope that such happiness will lead to even greater happiness throughout the year.
Smiles ripple within ourselves, but our own smile can also spark someone else’s, reflecting a spirit of mutual support.
It conveys a grand kindness—smiles that begin with you spreading to others, and from there widening until an even broader circle is filled with smiles.
With a horse-like speed in both play and study!
When we think of horses, we picture them running at incredible speed.
This phrase conveys the idea of tackling both play and study at that same fast pace.
But horses also sometimes walk slowly, don’t they? Moving quickly is great, but it can also be good to take things at a slower pace now and then.
Depending on the situation, why not include this phrase with the intention of working hard like a horse—sometimes speeding up, sometimes slowing down as needed?
Clear your homework at top speed with horse power!
When we think of horses, we get an image of them dashing swiftly, don’t we? Inspired by that light and speedy image, here’s a message that cleverly conveys the idea of “let’s finish our winter break homework quickly.” Homework assigned over a long vacation can feel gloomy if it’s left undone.
So send a message to your friends encouraging them to finish as soon as possible! Receiving this message will, of course, motivate them—and since you’re the one sending it, you’ll feel, “If I’m sending this, I’ve got to finish quickly too!” and get fired up yourself.
Wishing you a year full of fun powered by horses.
A cheerful, lively message that’s perfect for the Year of the Horse! If you write something like “With horse power, let’s make it a fun year,” you can capture a New Year’s theme while conveying lots of energy.
Adding a brief note about fun, horse-like moments—such as “running around energetically on last year’s field trip” or “the time we sprinted and laughed our hearts out at the sports day”—will help express your feelings even more.
It’s a bright, positive message filled with the wish for a year brimming with energy and smiles, just like a spirited horse.
Let’s find something fun with horse power!
I want to do something more fun in the new year! If you want to share that feeling with friends in a New Year’s card, how about sending words like these? Work hard like a horse to find what’s fun.
It’s exactly the kind of challenge we’d love for elementary school kids to take on.
Of course, studying and lessons are important, but finding things that make everyday life enjoyable matters too.
Trying your best for that can create truly unforgettable moments.
If your child wants to make a year full of fun memories with close friends, encourage them to use these words.
In conclusion
A short message to include with a New Year’s card is a perfect chance for elementary school children to share their sincere feelings.
A heartfelt message will bring a smile to the person who receives it.
Don’t overthink it—try expressing the gratitude you want to convey and the fun memories you have in your own words.
Enjoy exchanging warm words at the start of the new year.
