My son looooves getting mail, and I’m sure other kids do too. We don’t get many Christmas cards, and when we do they’re addressed to my husband.
So if anyone wants to send him a card, you can email me for the address.
If anyone else wants there kid/s to recieve a card, let us know.
Cool idea. I’ve emailed you.
But beware ye of teh evil strangers on ye olde internete! Especially since things are going to be addressed to your child.
Maybe you should think about a postal version of the SD ‘two clicks’ rule? Have us send cards to the address of a friend/relative rather than straight to your child’s home?
I’m in. Email to follow.
zelie zelerton, I’m not saying that your caution is groundless, but we’ve had some “send stuff to Doper kids” threads before, and nothing bad resulted. A long-time poster like Batsinma Belfry will recognize most of the Dopers who sign up.
Doesn’t anybody else want to get their kids involved in this? I think it would be fun for them.
I’ll check with my kids; they’re teenagers, so they may just roll their eyes and walk out of the room…
There are a few folks who want to send cards, but so far only my kid will be recieving.
If anyone is uncomfortable with having a bunch of people email them for their address, you can email me with your child’s name and address, and I’ll hook you up with the senders.
I’m bumping this for the weekend folks.
Thanks to everyone who has responded so far.
I’m in, and my daughter is already excited and looking around for cool cards. Thanks for organizing, Batsinma Belfry!
My daughter and I got some cards today. She also wants to send Florida postcards so we may throw some of those in as well. I hope we get a few more participants!
Heads up, **Batsinma Belfry ** and **Susie Derkins ** - your kids will be getting a card from me soon, on my way out the door to mail them now.
Just so you know, “Anastasia Anderson” is just little old me. 
I tried e-mailing you but it didn’t seem to go through. Are you still interested in getting more Christmas cards sent to your daughter?
My son is tickled that he’s been getting cards just for him. Thanks so much to everyone who has participated.
We were out of town, so we got it today. Thank you! My daughter was so excited.
And Bookkeeper, I know she would love more. I’m not sure why the email didn’t go through. I was going to email you, but I see that your address isn’t listed in your profile. If you wouldn’t mind trying again…?
We are sending some out tomorrow, so everyone watch your mailboxes!
I’ve got more cards, does anyone else have kids who would like to receive some? I went and bought an extra book of Christmas stamps the same day my husband did :smack: so I may as well put them to good use - my family’s cards are finished.
So far I’ve sent cards to two kids - Bastinma Belfry’s, and Susie Derkinseses. Anyone else?
Susie Derkins, you should be able to email me now, but I’ll try again anyway.
My five-year-old and 14-year-old would both be delighted. I’ll email you.
Email me as well, my daughter and I would love to send them cards!
Got your email, Bookkeeper, thank you!
Got your email, got the cards all made out, just looking for my book of stamps. You know, that book that I placed somewhere that I definitely wouldn’t forget? :smack:
Will be mailing them tomorrow or the next day. I might steal some of my husband’s stamps that he keeps neatly in his desk. 
(Yeah, I looked there… it would have made too much sense for my stamps to also be there, so naturally, they weren’t there.)
Well, in our house, I’m the official Keeper of the Stamps™. And Keeper of the Envelopes, Keeper of the Pens, etc. Works out pretty well since I’m the one who writes the checks for the bills and all. But if I didn’t have one dedicated place for all that stuff, I’d spend half my time looking for it!
I got cards. I got stamps. I got a pen. I got time on my hands.
Email me too.
