To hand in biscuits / sweeties for Christmas to Neighbours

My neighbours next door are Muslim. We’ve only lived next door for 18 months; we don’t see each other very often as we all work long hours and have busy lives.

Last Christmas they popped in with a card and sweets for our son. At Eid, I pop into theirs with sweets

I just wondered if it would be offensive to hand in sweets at Christmas for their children?

Would any Muslim ladies be able to give their opinion; as I really don’t want to offend my neighbours

Thanks

Of course it's fine.

It’s fine. Nobody minds people being nice.

I think it would be fine, although I am not muslim. If they gave you a card last Christmas they are obviously not offended by the fact that you celebrate it.

I would avoid biscuits with anything overtly Christmassy on but a box of Foxes choccy ones should be no problem!

Yes definitely fine- I wouldn’t be offended and I’m muslim
