Looking for Pen pals for my kids

I have been looking for pen pals for our kids. I want them to experience having a pen pal as I remember how much fun it was growing up. I looked on a couple other sites, but got some responses that just didn't seem right.
I am hoping that this will be a safer way to find pen pals, it is so hard to trust people these days. and it has been really hard to find a pen pal for the kids.

Please let me know if you have kids that would like a pen pal so we can set something up.

I have 3 boys of my own and 2 step daughters.

My boys are 8, 11, & going to be 13.

The youngest girl is probably to young to start writting as she is only 4, my other Step daughter is 10.

Hi my name is Aileen. My daughter age 9 would love a penpal. Her name name is Sarah Jane. She is in 3rd class. We live in Ireland and she would love a penpal from another country, she mention America.
she is very a shy girl and very caring to others. She has a sister age 7. We live in the outside a town so I have to arrange play dates, there are no children at walking distance. I just feel this would be a great way to get her to write and make a new friend. We perfer hand letters to enail. Please email me if you have a son or daughter who might be interested in having a penpal from Ireland.
:-) Regards Aileen.

my daughter is 15 and i have a daughter 12 still seeking committed pen pals. previous pen pals we found will write for a few months and then just stop for whatever reason. we also read all letters before giving them to the girls and would expect the same.

Hello Amber,

I have a 10 year old son that would love to be your kids pen pal. I too was afraid of the internet. If you are interested, maybe we could switch to emailing each other to swap addresses and phone numbers. My email is pm186@ntrs.com. This will help all the kids involved with reading writing and grammar!

yes, pls be very careful moms! i found my daughter a penpal on another site and when the letter came it was very evident that it was NOT a child's handwriting. just preview every letter before giving it to your child. me and my teen daughter seek commited pen pals as well.

This is just asking for trouble. People are freaks and on to situations like this these days as social media makes being a pervert so much easier. Get a post office box and penpal them yourself under some anonymous name.



Keep your kids safe

I am so glad I found this site. I wanted my daughters to experience having a pen pal and writing letters. Something traditional in our world of technology. I have a daughter that is 11 and one that is 5. If you are interested in becoming a pen pal for either one, please email me at rene_richardsonjones@yahoo.com. Thanks so much.

Hi

I have a 9 year old son, we live in England and he actually asked for a pen pal last night. He has just got his very first pen pal, we met them whilst camping (we are still on holiday camping in France, they left yesterday) and he is already e mailing his friend who is Dutch. I think its wonderful. I had an Italian pen pal for years and years. I loved it. I think e mail is safetr though now a days mine is susisharland@yahoo.co.uk
