PEN PALS – A project to exchange letters and drawings with Italy
A few days ago they arrived and are ready to be delivered THE LETTERS! These are the responses to the children of Stivaletto who at the end of 2019 had sent their drawings and postcards, adhering to the Pen Pals project proposed by Fantaitaliando.
Soon all children will receive their response letter via email and will be able to continue epistolary relationship with their long-distance friends 🙂
Writing is a way to talk about yourself, but also to get to know others. There is a very particular charm in the silent words read on paper, in the curiosity of receiving a long-awaited response, in the handwriting expression of a given character, in a hug sent by post…
This is why here at Stivaletto we continue the experimentation of the "Pen Pals" project by starting a second round. And whoever wanted join the project now or copy the activity’ with relatives and friends and’ definitely encouraged to do so!
A nice activity’ to suggest to children in this strange period, in which we and’ forced to stay at home, to let their imagination and their compositions fly to Italy.
For the entire month of April the boot will be collected’ postcards, letters or drawings and then send them via email in Italy to the nursery and primary school participating in the project. This is why the age range’ space from 0 to 12 years old!
Who wants to participate in the Pen Pals project all you have to do is send a photograph of the drawing or letter mentioning your name and age’ of the little author at this email address: amicidipenna@lostivaletto.it
Ready?!
Happy composing everyone!
