Something fun we decided to do this year in 2013 was start Postcrossing!
We have sent 60 postcards which totaled 296,253 miles sent.
We have received 59 postcards totaling 292, 757 miles.
We have received so many awesome cards.
This one is a puzzle!
When we get them, we look at the stamps, total up how much they cost to get here.
Then we read them, we asked our senders to tell us what language they speak and what their favorite food is to eat. Then we look up where they came from and draw a line on the map.
Some of the cards are in the girls bedrooms, like this one below is on Bridget's memory board.
It is so fun to get a post card every couple of days. :)
I think everyone should try it! It is free and you pay for the postcards you send and the postage.
You also control how many come,etc. This has really helped with teaching geography this summer.
I would be happy to answer any questions. :)
We totally love postcrossing!
Send one to us!! We'll send one back. :-)
