from my kid to yours (international)

I'm relatively new to swap bot and my 3 year old son is as interested in the whole thing as I am. He likes to look at everything I make and receive and asks me to read him every letter. I also usually end up sharing whatever goodies get tucked in there from my partner. :)

I decided to create a swap to make kids feel the same excitement and happiness as we do when we open our mailboxes. For this swap - we play the messenger for our kids!

Depending on the child's age and skill level, they can write a letter, dictate a letter for you to transcribe, draw a picture, send some art, etc. Let them know that they are making something special to share with someone and that another child is making something special to share with them. Maybe tuck a surprise in the envelope too (I'm pretty sure every kid loves stickers!)

Let them be as involved in the process as they are capable of and willing to be. This is an international swap as well so it's a great opportunity to sneak in a geography/cultural lesson!

****If you sign up, please put the child's first name and age in the comments (if you're comfortable doing so). You know the first question your kid is going to ask is "what is their name?"***

Maybe write a hello note to the 'messenger' as well.

I'll be checking profiles to weed out anyone under 4.9 or anyone who has any unexplained 1s or 3s in 2016. I (we) will angel if necessary. Please don't sign up unless you're committed to coordinate and willing rank a 5 - let kids be kids. :)

Have fun!
