Title: 7 year old homework help request.
Post by: Unorthodox on January 30, 2015, 01:49:25 PM

Talia brought home a little homework project.

silly little story, but it pretty much boils down to a kind of chain letter idea.  She made a self portrait we are supposed to mail around, the recipient is supposed to send a postcard back, and maybe a pic with the portrait 'doing something fun' (email me or post here and we'll print the pics, god don't go develope film), then send it off to someone else, eventually it needs to be back here.  The idea is to get this thing as far and wide as possible. 

Family wise, we wouldn't be getting her project out of Utah, so I was wondering if there might be any volunteers willing to tackle this little project?  There's some pretty diverse membership around here, and it would be fun for her to get pics from all over.

Okay, so you're going to mail this to people and have them send it back with a postcard or something else? And you're trying to get as many places as possible?
I hail from Florida, so here is a postcard. I hope I understood that right.

Okay. So this is like a Flat Stanley project, kinda, sorta?
Well, I've done post card mailings for kids before. I'm in.

Well, they send a postcard back here with something fun they did with the 'flat person' written on it.  Then send the doodad off to the next person, yes.  Trying to hit as many as possible in whatever the time limit was (I think it was May)

don't think digital is going to count.  Though a pic of the thing somewhere and an email probably would.

Yeah, exactly an extension of that from the looks of it.  (though before today I had never heard of flat stanley.)

I'll try to take a shot of the beach or something, then.
