Does anyone have penpals for their children? It is something I have often thought about for my girls. I think it would be lovely writing practice, but also just for the joy of it.
Does anyone do this? Any thoughts?

I bet my six-year-old would love to have penpals. He's always writing letters to relatives. He also types e-mail sometimes, but I'd prefer him using pencil and paper.

oooh! a Penpal thread!
If anyone is interested in writing to us, I would love to have girl (sorry!) penpals of a similar age...I have a 3 yo & a 5 1/2 yo girls. My girls adore nature study, drawing & animals. We are in the UK.
I must point out, we are not Catholics. We are believing Christians, but not Catholic. I hope that is ok.

Stacy and Vanna: I have 14 and almost-11 yobs. Would they work? PM me!
I've tried to have penpals for my kids through this forum before and they've written to prospective "pals" only to never hear from them.  I hope it works better this time.
I also have an almost 13 yod. Does anyone have a teen or almost teen girl who wants to write to someone?
