Product Description

The Dear Little Letterbox is the perfect gateway for encouraging both reluctant and enthusiastic writers to tap into their imaginations and create letters

Like anyone, if you are not interested in an issue you are not likely to share the topic so why on earth would we expect someone to write about it? Sadly too often children are not encouraged to explore their interests through writing as topics such as “write a recount about your weekend” are set for them. As a natural consequence kids do not want to write and find it boring. Now, imagine your child has a passion for blocks, the idea of writing is much more enticing if he/she could write a letter to a loved one about his/her latest construction or even Santa for the new set that he/she has his/her eye on.

Kids letterbox connects people in unimaginable ways

The Dear Little Letterbox assists in establishing links between people that may be challenging in everyday life. Children can write to a parent who works away from the home, with the parent pre-writing letters to be placed in the Dear Little Letterbox during the time of absence turning the letter writing experience into a great reading activity. Of course such letters can also be sent to grandparents, Godparents, other relatives and friends who live away. Let’s face it, you are never too old to receive and treasure a letter full of love and care.

In the case of losing someone or a pet they are close to, children can feel more secure knowing they can still connect with that loved one. This may also help the grieving and healing process.

Children adore Santa, The Easter Bunny, The Tooth Fairy, elves and fairies so why not pop them an occasional letter? Picture your child’s face when they receive a specialised note from one or all of these extraordinary identities. With Dear Little Letterbox anything is possible.

A mailbox that nurtures neat handwriting

Writing letters naturally promotes legibility and aesthetics as there would be little point writing a letter if the receiver cannot decipher its meaning. Each post box contains a notepad, coloured pencils, sharpener, little envelopes, stickers and wall mounting supplies to assist the designing process. Choose between a blue, pink, yellow, purple, black or red letterbox to enhance your gorgeous space and allow Dear Little Letterbox to take your child’s literacy experience to a whole new fun level.
