Creating Great Letter Mail for Kids.
I love sending snail mail to my grandchildren the very fun part of it all is the clip art that you use and arrange it around the letter.The clip art can tell about the goodies you have in the package tucked away for surprise.( here above is a sample letter to my granddaughter) and you can see where I put a clip art Doll and Jewelry she's in the dress-up mode.Describing what she might find to her liking, And a big kiss from me! This makes the letter personal to each child because you put their name in the letter in the beginning and you sign it at the bottom.
This letter can be framed for keeping and placed on the childs bedroom wall are, at your computer work station at home.
Of coarse Boys love Race cars and race flags,Any thing that make them think they are in the moment of fast......Right :) Their eyes will light up in that moment.
Baseballs,football,basketball,bikes,
balloons,rockets,candy etc........
make it all fun sometimes just silly
( These are samples letters to my grandson's)
Here is some sample clip art..
Well I have even sent Letters vi-email to them those that are very computer savvy and I think they all are except the infants but it wont be very long before they too will be opening their own email like one of my grandsons that is 7.Children are so far advance they play all the new games starting@ the age of 2 why not let them read their own mail.
Put a lots of colors on mail for infants and alphabets and see what happens,Paper mail is still very important it gives them something to connect with in the sense of touch and feel not only just for sight.
Parents can use this same technique with their child and let them pick out the clip art to send to someone special they want to write.Most of the time the picture says it all.
Oh and I like when they call to tell me about their mail the postman left for them from me.
Thanks for letting me in your heart again:

Hello angela_michelle, there is clip art on your computer,News paper, magazines, online sites,It is everywhere. But somtimes it takes time for the cutouts from paper because than you have to scan your product onto your computer.It is fun to be creative with the things you know the child likes.My three year old Granddaughter gets her letters and she love them.She will take the letter after my daughter read the bright letter words and write on it.I call that her signature.She says she is writing me back.Make sure to print the words in Colors they can be rainbows what ever you might choose.
Thanks for asking.
Have fun!
