***February Pen Pal Letter Swap***COMPELTED

[mommytotwo]

Welcome to the start of our new pen pal swap. We have ladies from both the United States and internationally, so this will be alot of fun.

Each month, I will post a new thread so that we may discuss any questions, you may check in on that particular thread for the month, let us know when you have sent out your letter, and as you receive one.... Please send out your letter for each month out either on the first or second week of each month.

***I do ask that you do not post any real confidential information that your pen pal provides you on this thread, and that you keep it between the two of you via letters. This will protect your pen pal's privacy.

Each month, there will be a "Topic of the Month-(TOTM), and a "Twist" aka Twist of the Month. The Topic of the Month will give you a subject on one or two things for you to include into your letter to your pen pal. And the Twist will be something "fun" that you can choose to do if you wish. You may discuss this option with your pen pal.


*This months "Topic of the Month" is-
-Introducing Yourself. Tell your pen pal about your hobbies, likes, about your family, and about your state/country.

This months "Twist" is-
-Remember when you were a child, or maybe even as an adult making cut out Valentines for your classmates, family, and friends for Valentines Day. Since Valentines is in February, you are to cut out a Valentine heart, and decorate it for your pen pal. If you have kids, your kids can also help you in decorating it. Just use your creativity.



PLEASE, IF YOU WILL BE AWAY DURING THE SWAP PERIOD, PLEASE LET ME KNOW. SEND ME A PM WITH YOUR DATES....thank you .

I agree--this is already fun! I'm going to do the 'twist', especially if I see my nieces this weekend, they are very artistic!

I am going to do the "twist" as well, and my daughter will be helping me. She can't wait to work on the Valentines .

[glitterkittyy]

Well if we're going to be all out in the open with our twists

I'm doing the twist too I have some ideas and can't wait to do them this weekend!

 

[redsunfish]

I've enlisted the help of my 8 year old cousin to work on the twist for me.

 

[mommytotwo]

Great, just one more exchanger to pick up their pals info.

Here is a "hint/teaser" to next months-(March) "twist"...it involves either purchasing, or being creative.

 

[Meriweather]

Is it a secret who everyone's pen pals are?? Or can we know how the matchings went?

 

[Danauk]

I have never made a valentines thing before (not that huge her in England, certainly not something done at school), but I will give it a go!!

We will keep it a secret as of now. But once everyone starts to receive their first letterl/mailing, they can surely let others know who their pen pal is.

There will be another fun "twist" in a couple of months that will require you to "write" more than just one letter.

what a great opportunity for you to try something different.

The Valentines do not need to be something fancy. This is just a fun extra that you can add in. I don't want to stress anyone over it.

 

[Kirby]

Just checking in. Got my name and looking forward to penning a letter.

 

[Missy1961]

I'm actually writing my first letter right now!

 

[AlexWyattMommy]

My letter is written.

Now to make the twist in the morning.

 

[mommytotwo]

I had sent out my pen pal letters this morning .

 

[mommytotwo]

I have a 36 year old female who lives in the U.S. who is wanting a pen pal. Is anyone interested? If so, please pm me.
