Letters to faraway family

Stay close by mail.

4 min read

A regular letter keeps grandparents, relatives and old friends close.

Ideas

  • Write about everyday details: meals, weather, small wins
  • Include photos or a child's drawing
  • Ask a question so they can write back
  • Pick a regular rhythm, like the first Sunday of the month
