hello sisters! Does anyone know if such activites are available to our younger girls? My 12 yo daughter wants to connect with other farming girls, swap, penpal etc like us ladies do. She is jealous when I create something new to put in the mail to a fellow farmgirl .... she says she wants to do something too.

Hi Ladies,
I am so glad that my 5 childrens bookmarks arrived safely. My children really enjoyed this:both giving and receiving. :)
We would love to be included in the seed swap or anything else that might come up. I think this was wonderful for the children.
Thanks so much,
Nicola |

Kathryn got her bookmarks from Betsy yesterday! They look like a lot of thought and time went into them! We thank her very much!!
If the seed swap is a good idea, then I will start a new thread for it!

Jaiden recieved her bokmarks today. She loves them all, the bead selection was perfect and she thinks Becca and Anthony did a very good job picking out the stones, they are all very pretty. She plans to write Bella back sometime this week, she is enjoying this penpal thing :c)

This is the way life works... it never goes as expected!! Don't worry about the delay.... Swaps are fun, there shouldn't be any stress involved! I hope this week is better for you!

To our swap partners,
I apologize for not sending ours out yet. Had a bit of a rough week AND I have had no car. Long story, but hoping to get it back today, then I plan to get out to the post office before they close.
My Betsy got her letter and bookmark and LOVEs them both, thank you so much.
I will try to get back online asap to say when we post those.
Sorry for the delay. We really enjoy being part of these swaps and hope to be less tardy next time.
Thanks so much,
Nicola and kidlets |

I thought maybe the kids could do their own "secret seed" swap, just like the one Siobhan put together.
What do you think? My kids have their own little separate gardens, and I think they would enjoy something along those lines.
Nicola~ Did Betsy receive Kathryn's book mark? We haven't heard from you yet! Were you able to send Kathryn's out yet? Keep me posted.. Thanks!

Our bookmarks went out yesterday, I am so glad everyone thus far has had a wonderful experience. As my first swap coordination I am so happy it went off without a hitch or glitch. ;c)
Would one of you ladies like to decide the next swap project for our kids?

Colton received his book mark from Jack - oh my gosh, how he loved it! the only problem is now he says we have to drive to see Jack...because how he knows "just how to get there". :) Thanks for the swap...Colton loved it!!!

Nicloa, please forgive Jaiden and me. We had to re-create our swaps for your kiddos... my 4yo son "helped" and well it turned out not so good......
Our new creations will go out in the mail in the morning.

Little Mark got his bookmark today. He was so excited. Thanks so much to Simon. He is using his bookmarks already and all the sticker are used up already.
I must apologize that I didn't get the children to mail theirs yet. Hopefully tomorrow. I am to blame because I need to go to the post office to get stamps but got really behind this week.
My husband brought a trailer full of our things that were in storage and I am losing track of time.
The other children are excited to get theirs too.
thanks so much for a great swap for the kids,
Nicola :) |

Jack would like so say "Thanks so much" to Colton! He got his bookmarks today, along with a wonderful, and thoughtful collection of stickers! When he saw the envelope with his name on it, his face just lit up! Love how Colton pressed plants as his bookmarks... an idea I might use for myself!!
Thanks to Annette for putting this together--seeing my son's smile was priceless!
PS. I love the picture that Colton drew!!
