Is there anyone in Australia or New Zealand who would be willing to send us a postcard from there to add to our little study on Oceania? Any websites, books or resources that would be great for kids 6, 7, and 7 1/2?

Thanks!
Michelle

How about the Red Crab Brochure from Christmas Island, Australia? It's free:

Michelle,

We'd be happy to send some postcards - you can PM me your address.

This is a good website for Australia Day and has some printables for the children.

Leonie,

The postcards arrived! Thanks so much! The kids recognized the pictures on the one as being from the same place as The Pumpkin Runner. Australia is such a fascinating place and we are sure enjoying learning about it.

Thanks again,
Michelle
