once. each fAamily wrote a letter stopped in the middle and sent it to the next family member to continue.
we also cut up photos of family as puzzles too.
include some confettii in the envelope for fun.

She was on a ship and recieved a letter written on toilet paper. the ship was rationing tp for 24 hours. but she felt she was prepared.
Just a few suggestions for a cheery greeting
all of these are really clever ideas to make the letter sending and receiving so much fun. Thanks for the suggestions. We could all send quilt block letters!!
