Small Graces had a grand idea! Wouldn't it be fun for our kids to exchange mail art too? Just like pen pals? Should it be similar to our mail art list, where we send one out each month to someone different or any other suggestions?
In the mean time, I'll get a list started. If your child/children are interested, email me your:
1. Full name 2. Screen name 3. Child's first name 4. Mailing address 5. How long you have been on the forum 6. How old your child is 7. Your child's birthday too

Thanks gals. The list is growing! If anyone else's children are interested, I'd love to add them to the list. I think it will be such fun! Hopefully Stella can join in in a few years.

I'm not familiar with mail art, but have a 14 yr. dd that loves doing art work & having a pen pal. How does this work?

Kristine-
MailArt can be anything from a letter to a postcard to a gift package. The farm will mail out list every month with names and addresses. With the adult Mailart list, you send art to the name above yours. Just a little something to brighten someone's day!

I just sent off the first mail art for kids list. Let me know what you think and if you should have received it and didn't, please holler at me.
Ages range from 5 to 14, so if you know of any kids that might like a project, sign 'em up!
