My Grandkids Love to Get Mail!

This swap is for anyone who has grandkids who love to get mail. My granddaughter loves to go the mailbox with her mom and open it up and get the mail out. I would like for her to get some mail addressed to her. I’m keeping this first swap to USA only. If it goes well maybe we’ll do an international later.

As I don’t want to give out the children’s address all swaps will be sent to your partners along with an extra envelope to be addressed to the child and resent. If you would like to decorate that second envelope with the child in mind that would be great!

What I need you to do when you join the swap is to add a comment to the bottom of this swap with the following information.

• Child’s first name
• boy/girl
• age
• At least Three favorite of theirs. Some suggestions might be: Color, cartoon character, Animal, book, outdoor activity, rainy day/indoor
  activity, movie/TV show, song. Or anything else you can think of that will help your partner to write a personal note to your grandchild.
• Include something that has just happened to them or might happen soon, like:
  they just learned to walk, or lost their first tooth, or just finished the 3rd grade, or will be starting school next year.

When you get your partner/s, find their comment at the bottom. Then write a short note to the child based on that info.

Include with the note at least 3 surprise items (just some ideas to help you get started):

• a postcard
• 3-5 character bandaids
• a couple of pencils (wrapped so they don’t come through the envelope)
• crayons,
• a coloring book.
• stickers,
• age appropriate craft items
• 2 hair items
• a hand-made bookmark
• fun button pin
• temporary tattoos
• 1.00 store surprise
• notepad
• stationary-(at least 4 papers with matching envelopes)

Remember this is to bring a little joy and excitement to a child’s life.
