DS7 is really interested in finding a penpal. This is wonderful as he dislikes writing. So, I am trying to find one for him. Where does a person find a penpal nowadays?

Well, he could write to my DD7 -- she's a writing machine!

We signed up with some worldwide penpal service for kids, when DS was small, but he never really got hooked up with anyone. It wasn't his thing. I'd forgotten all about it -- DD would probably love it! I'll have to think what it was called.

What kind of penpal does he want? I have a 7 year old DS who loves books, football, computer/iphone games (when he gets to use them...), most any discovery network show (ancient aliens, bigfoot theories, etc.), etc.

I found my dd a penpal from one of my Facebook friends children. They live 4 states away and are the same age. Match made in heaven!
