Kids penpal letters

That is too bad they got no return letters. This is so rewarding for kids to do.

@ShyBear88 I hope they get answers.

When I was at school, there was a big drive to get kids writing penpal letters. I wrote to a few. I got a few back. Some lasted just one or two letters. I wrote to one for a few years then didn't hear from her for a while after she got married. Recently, though, she found me on Facebook. My most successful one, though, was with a boy from Tunisia. He is now a man, of course. We have kept in touch for 14 years. Although we have never met, I consider him like a brother. He always refers to my children as his nephews. I know I was very lucky to have found such a friend. Over the years, there have been times when I didn't have much to say. I'd share news with him or tell him what I'd done over the summer (which wasn't usually a lot!). We'd send each other pictures. Now, we are still in touch but don't write actual letters so often.

are those kids they write to their classmates?

Thats a neat idea.

That's wonderful. When I was a kid, I wrote letters.
