Description:

This is the first in a monthly series of Pre-Schooler’s Coloring Page Swaps. It is designed to give the Pre-schooler in your life a little fun in the form of mail. The kids all learn about the mailman and woman, and what they do, when they are in Pre-school and they all love to receive their very own mail!

Note: This swap is meant for members (including International) with young children, ages 3-6. I don’t really mean to be exclusionary, and if I upset anyone, please accept my apologies.

January’s theme is Snowmen and Weather!! If you live in an area that does not get snow, you might want to look for coloring pages that are Weather related. Most Pre-School programs cover weather during the month of January. If your child is in Pre-school, ask the teacher if she has any weather related coloring pages. Weather related free coloring pages can also be found online at many Pre-School Curriculum sites.

The exchange is with 5 partners, so you will send out 5 coloring pages and your child will receive 5 coloring pages. If you like, you could send a short letter from your child to the recipient child, letting them know your child’s name, age, if they have pets, etc. General information.

Please leave your child’s name (FIRST NAME ONLY) and their age in the comment section below, so that the partners can know, so they can send accordingly. If your child’s name does not clearly indicate that they are boy or girl, please list that as well. (The name Sydney, for instance, can be male or female.) The card should be addressed to the child’s first name, then underneath their name, ‘c/o’ and the member’s name and address. (You can also just write the child’s name on the envelope, place that envelope into a bigger one and mail it all to the parent member.)

Happy New Year everyone!!

My child is Liv, age 3 (well, she'll turn 3 in January :) ).

Mail can be addressed directly to her if you wish (instead of being put in a bigger envelope).

She will be so excited to get mail! Great idea!

I'm not a part of this but wanted to tell you how great of an idea I think this is! I don't have kids, but I hope when someday I do, they will get to take part in projects like this :D

I have Kassi, she turns 4 in Febuary.

user2839 12/12/2006 #

Thanks for the support, Muushuu! Do you have young neices or nephews maybe?

medesign 12/12/2006 #

this is a good idea for swap. if you do another i would love to participate in it. as it is right now i have too many swaps/ xmas stuff to get out in the next month.

user2839 12/15/2006 #

I think we will do this every month and change up the themes.

user5135 12/27/2006 #

Mary is 6.

user5425 12/28/2006 #

I think this is a wonderful idea. I am a pre-school teacher and i have a 3 year old and he will be 4 in March (his name is Trey) and i was wondering if i could send out a snowman that you build after you color it?

user5211 12/28/2006 #

I think anything that you can color would be fine. The fact it is also a craft could be a bonus. :-) Just my thoughts. We, Kassi and I, are looking forward to this one.

user2839 12/28/2006 #

Yes! Definitely on the build the snowman. That sounds cute!

JaneR 12/30/2006 #

My son Kai is 4. This should be a fun swap. :-)

user2839 12/30/2006 #

Welcome everyone! This swap is about to close sign up and our partners will be assigned by the 'bot'. Please remember, the send deadline on this swap is Jan. 10. I hope all the little ones enjoy their coloring pages! We will do this next month too. Look for the posting of a Feb Coloring page swap.

Peace and Prosperity,

Susan

Hello!

I have two partners who haven't listed their child's info. Could everyone make sure that their name and age is listed?

Thanks a bunch! -CP

user3740 01/ 1/2007 #

Oops, I meant to say that their child's name and age should be listed. :)

user5211 01/ 2/2007 #

I also have two that do not have children's names listed. I am getting them ready, hopefully can send them out tomorrow. Thanks.

user2839 01/ 3/2007 #

Go ahead and send them to the members name and address. I am sure they will pass them on to their child.

We will be doing this next month, I will be setting the swap up in the next couple of days.

Hey everyone! I set up next month's coloring page! Go check it out! Preschooler's Coloring Page Swap #2

user5211 01/10/2007 #

Has anyone recieved anything yet? I thought mine might have gotten to their destination in the U.S. by now.

user3740 01/10/2007 #

We've gotten one in Sweden already! It's so fun to see my daughter's face light up when I tell her there is mail just for her.

This was a great idea!

user5211 01/13/2007 #

We got one today. Thanks for the snowman. No sooner than she opened it, she colored, cut, and pasted it together. Thanks Pixie415!!

user5211 01/17/2007 #

Thank you JaneR. Kassi was so happy just to see her name on the outside of the letter. Thanks for taken the time to send the coloring page.

user5211 01/22/2007 #

Not overly happy with this one. As Kassi has only recieved two out of five. I will wait till the first of the month before I leave a rating. Hope it is just mail delay. If you sent yours late, please let me know so I can give you extra time. Thanks.

user5211 01/26/2007 #

Recieved one today from MI. Had several pages in it of cute little skating characters. Thank you for them, she was so happy to get your letter. not sure who it was from, she destroyed the envelope all I noticed it was from MI. Could you let me know who it is from so I can give you credit for it. Thank you for the coloring pages!!
