Whether you homeschool or not, your kids may love being apart of this fun club....the Kidz Postcard Exchange. My kids signed on at the beginning of March when they started the "Green Swap". The moderator tries to match each child to another around the same age. There is one address list on the group where you can find everyone's mailing information. Our kids loved the first go-around. They received postcards from Arizona, Indiana, and Florida for St. Patick's Day.
Each swap is optional. And you can feel free to ask around if you're looking for certain kinds of postcards. For example, we've met some new friends that are interested in Mammoth Cave cards, and since we live pretty close and my son will be going there for scouts next month, we said we'd pick up a bunch for them and send in a manila envelope.
I think it's a great way to learn geography (we use a map that we add stickers to for each city/state we receive from), develop their writing skills, meet new friends through penpal-ing, and start (or add on to) a fun and interesting collection. I think there's even a couple PS classrooms participating.
Hi! My name is Deborah, and I want to thank you for taking a moment out of your busy day to visit Home For Him. I hope in some small way that you find encouragement and ideas for not only your homeschooling experience, but also your walk with God.
