Description:

This swap is intended for my 13 (soon 14) year old daughter who would like a penpal.

Swap is for Your child (or a child in your life such as a niece or nephew, grandchild, foster child, etc.) ages 13-15. You will write a letter to your penpal telling about yourself and your interests. Everyone will have 2 partners and send 2 letters.

You can rate swap after 1 letter has been received from each partner. Obviously, ideally - your child will reply to a letter and a friendship in snail mail will form. But, since all kids and personalities are different - we can only hope for the best with this.

First letters are to be sent to the child with a c/o (care of) and adults name from here signing up for swap. We want to protect our kids while offering them a fun experience and maybe - a new friend. I encourage parents/guardians to monitor mail. We can assume most people on swap-bot are safe, but this is not a perfect world so it is smart to be aware of what is happening and involved with your teen so no bad experiences occur.

Prefer no flakers or 1's. Let's keep it fun as it is all about the kids.

You can send a postcard or any small item with letter if you choose.

Please make sure when you sign up to put your child's name, age and a bit about them in the comment line.

This is an international swap. We hope for many participants. The more the merrier. :)

Sounds like fun. I just asked my daughter last nigh if she wanted a pen pal and then I see this swap! I will have to confirm with her first, but it should be ok.

Again, sounds like lots of fun!

My 15 year old niece, Suzy, always wanted a pen pal and this seems like the perfect opportunity for her. =)

My daughter is 13 and she is looking forward to being pen pals with someone. I told her when I was her age I had several pen pals, unfortunately I lost touch with all of them. This sounds like a lot of fun!

Partners are assigned. Let the letter writing and fun begin. I hope everyone who wanted a penpal gets several nice letters and makes new friends :):)
