Let’s talk about wonderful snail mail today and things to share in your happy mail. I want to offer a little inspiration if you’re looking for new things to write about, looking for something to share with a new pen pal or you’re wanting to have some fun with lists and mail tags.
Here are a few ideas of things that you can write about and share with your penpal in your letters.
Books you’ve read
Books you want to read
TV shows you’re watching
TV shows you’ve loved
Favourite meal
Weather in your area recently
Pets you’ve had or have
Trips you have planned
Recent outings you’ve had
Best holiday memory ever
Favourite holiday destination
Current snack favourite
A recipe you’d recommend
Plants you’ve been growing
New hobbies you’re trying
A hobby you’d love to take up
Favourite season and why
The music you’re listening to
Favourite concerts you’ve been to
Skincare you’re loving
Favourite film of all time
With all of these you can share one thing, or maybe top 3 or 5 lists. They can be within the letter, as a tag, notes in the margin, whatever you want!
You could print this list out and aim to add one or two of these to each of your letters.
When you’re sharing these things, always be sure to ask your pen pal about theirs too, makes it more fun!
I hope that this has given you a few fresh ideas, happy letter writing.
