I know that it is a little bit of a weird request but my 11-year-old daughter just asked me if she could have a pen-pal. I, of course, agreed thinking she had someone in mind. As it turned out she didn't and was really asking me to help her find one.
So here's my request: I know that many of you are moms of girls and I was wondering if you could ask your girls to maybe consider an idea of being a pen-pal with my daughter Karolina. I know that it would make her very happy and make me feel a little better knowing who she is in contact with. She wanted to search online but I am so wary and afraid of this form because you just never know what perps are lurking out there.
Thank you so much ahead of time and we, my daughter and I, will be keeping our fingers crossed that she'll find her pen-pal.
My 9-year-old loves writing letters and would love to have a pen pal. If it's okay that she's a bit younger than your daughter, send me an e-mail and we can set something up.

I wish my 11 year old was interested. She isn't really into it, at the moment. But who knows that could change later in the week....lol! She had a pen pal for a little while that I found through a forum on todaysparent.com. If you check it out there are other moms posting for their kids, with whom you could communicate with first. Just thought I would let you know about that. I had a good experience on that site.
ReplyDeleteIt is a good idea, I always had penpals, sadly most stopped writing, but I still have one I got when I was 13 :) A friend for life.
ReplyDeleteHope you find someone
Unfortunately my daughters are much older, but I agree that when she is only 11, it is wise of you to try to find someone you know a little bit through your blog. Good luck to her; I hope she will find a really good friend.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea! I agree that this is a wonderful way to find a pen pal for her since there are so many scary people out there now. My daughter would probably love to be a pen pal. They did it in school and loved it. Of course she is only 7 - will be 8 next month, so not sure if your daughter would mind someone younger? Just let me know!
