Where do I find penpals for my kids?
Both my kids (boys 10 & 7) love to write and love to get mail. So I thought a peppal would be good for them. But I can't find any good sites to get them one. I didn't think it would be so difficult. Does anyone have any ideas? Or maybe you have a kid who would like a penpal. Either way, TIA!

Just asked my kids and DD(10) would love to have a pen pal. DS says "no", (no surprise there, he hates writing!). If anyone else is interested, lets get something started!

Our local library here in Georgia has a penpal system set up for kids. My dd filled out a paper about her and her likes and they set her up with 2 girls in South Carolina. My dd is having a blast. I have never had to buy so many stamps, which is ok with me. Andrea

I have two boys as well-ages 9 and 6. Things were kind of tight so we didn't do the Gift exchange, but a pen pal list might be kind of fun.

Okay!
Looks like we have 15 now! Great! We could use at least one more to make it an even number so if anyone else wants to join in, that would be great.
Does anyone want to organize this? If not, I will volunteer.
PM me your child's name, address, sex and age and I will figure it all out. You can also include any interests they may have to better suit partners/pals.
I will get back to everyone when it is all sorted out.

If anyone else was wanting to get this going, don't let me step on your toes!
