It Came in the Mail

MAIL A HUG--Receiving mail can be fun! This website has a simple activity for you to download and color that you can then send by mail to someone special. If you don't have access to a large sheet of paper (as in the website), then simply draw a picture of your hug on regular sized printer or construction paper.
WRITE AND MAIL A POSTCARD--Or, perhaps you would prefer to write a short note to someone using the printable postcard from this website. The site also gives USPS instructions for placing the address and note on a postcard.
Whichever activity you choose, be sure to thank your postal worker today for helping keep you connected.
Look for more stories and activities Monday through Saturday.
Remember, make it a great day, keep safe, and keep on reading!
