Geography Swap Box - Austrailia

Posted in GEOGRAPHY

We received our swap box from the Beddall family in Queensland, Austrailia a couple of days ago. What a great and informative bunch of stuff. The also sent each of the kids a cool keychain that features an image of their local money, a small koala who's arms can be pinched open to hang on your shirt, and a pack of play money that we also split between them. I also got a cool pen with Austrailia on it. In addition to all that fun stuff, we got several pamphlets on the local area of Queensland. The Steve Irwin Zoo was a popular pamphlet with my kids.

They also sent a personal letter with photos showing us their family, home and wildlife right in their backyard. Our box to them was sent out today and they should receive it within 4 days (that just amazes me!). I can't wait for them to get it, I sure hope they'll enjoy all we sent to them, I think they will.

We had a friend that lived in Austrailia for a couple of years - she LOVED it. I told her that if we ever go there on vacation, we're taking her as our personal tour guide! Sounds like your family learned a lot from the swap. Love, Adrienne
