Crunch Time!

Yes, it's official - t-minus roughly 24 hours until penpalkidsclub.com goes live! Our team is so excited to bring you the absolute best in edu-tainment that may help your kids discover global relationships that may last a lifetime.

Speaking of excitement, check out our billboard on the Las Vegas Strip. WOW!!!

All flash aside, this week has made me very nostalgic. Did you have a penpal when you were growing up? I did. Her name was Alice (pronounced Ah-lees) and she lived in the Loire Valley in France. Everyday, I waited by the mailbox, hoping for a letter from her. The days when her letters came, everything just seemed...better - the sun seemed to shine a little brighter, and I ceased to be an ordinary 9 year old because this magical person on the other side of the world thought I was important enough to write to on a regular basis. We continued to send each other pictures and letters throughout the years, but we eventually lost touch. Even now, I still want to visit her region and experience the world through her eyes, and I wish this transforming sense of wonder for your child.

Counting Down the Days

We're almost there! This Saturday, penpalkidsclub.com goes live and we're so excited about finally being able to let you see what we've been working on! In addition to checking out our site, you'll be able to talk to us "live" on Twitter and Facebook, and we can't wait to meet you!

For me, this is the culmination of my dream of being able to let kids experience each other on a "global playground." I genuinely believe that our website will let kids get to know each other in a very real way without the built-in barriers of culture and distance. Truly, PenPal Kids Club is the only site where kids can safely EXPLORE, PLAY & SHARE with penpals around the world!

If that wasn't exciting enough, we now have a billboard in TIMES SQUARE!
