oooooh, more postcards.....

I'm loving the mailbox at the moment.....

Not one, but two postcards for us today.....

One from a little girl in Germany....


what a cute postcard huh?

And the other one came from China....


We've stuck them on the wall around our world map and found the towns from whence they came.....

We've sent a few more postcards off as well to places like Finland, the USA, China and another couple to Germany.....

I love it when I can find the world in my mailbox!

There's a bit of excitement in our house....

I know it's not enough to get everyone excited but we are hopping around a little bit.....

We received our first postcard via the wonders of postcrossing!


It's from Finland..... just beautiful.... and it came with rather a splendid stamp - Isaac has already added it to his collection!

We've sent three postcards off altogether now and have one more ready to go to China.....

We are eagerly awaiting our next one......

We've decided to stick them up around the edge of one of our world maps (we have three world maps on our walls at the moment!) and put lines from the postcards to the places they came from .....

such fun..... you should try it!

Postcrossing......

Have you heard of Postcrossing?

I read about it recently and thought what a fabby idea it would be for the kids and I to get involved in......

they are really excited......

I reckon it can definitely count as part of our geography studies for the year!!!

This is our first postcard which we sent off today and it's off to Germany....


will let you know when we get our first one back.... oooooooh, I wonder where it will come from.......

endings and beginnings......
