Postcard exchanging

We just started exchanging postcards with other homeschoolers!  I received emails from people who will be sending us postcards from New Mexico, Texas (this one might be from NASA), South Carolina (She is going to try to send one from NY too), Georgia, North Carolina, Balboa Spain, Japan, and Korea!  We have also emailed someone in France and are hoping to get one of the Eiffel Tower!


 


This is very exciting for the kids, as they will get mail, a picture of different places as well as a stamp!  If anyone wants to exchange from where you live, we would be happy to send you a postcard of Alaska.  We don't mind getting duplicates from states either, as the likelyhood of getting the same postcard is pretty slim.  We are especially hoping for cards of an historical nature, or of something special about each area, for example, a famous landmark, waterfall, mountain, etc.  I will be trying to send pictures of Mt. McKinley, the tallest mountain in North America, unless something else is requested.


 


I am also going to start having dh pick up postcards as he travels, so we should expand our collection pretty quickly at the rate he has been going places!   Too bad I didn't think of this when he went to Boston last month!


 


Anyway, just email me if you would like to do an exchange with us!  We can also probably get Seattle postcards pretty easily, as dh is there just about every month for business.

  1. Hi! I saw your post on PC Kids group. We do that too. :-) What fun! Just wanted to welcome you. I am a fellow blogger.

  2. We received Aaron’s card today. The kids loved it. I don’t have your address though to send one back.

  3. This sounds like a really fun way to learn geography and such. I would love to participate in something like this.

  4. We are not a homeschooling family but we would love to write if you would want. I think it would be good for my kids to learn about a different way of life than theirs… meaning homeschooling vs. their public schooling. Let me know if you would be interested. Thanks. Jen
