When I was in about 5th grade, I found an ad at the end of a children’s magazine to get a pen-pal from another country. With a #2 pencil, I bubbled in my name, my interests, and the top countries I was interested in: Yugoslavia (as it was called!), Mexico, Australia.
Letters and postcards from my pen-pal, Lily
In a couple of weeks I was matched with “Liliana from Yugoslavia”- we ended up writing for more than 10 years before we lost touch! It was an incredible experience to exchange pictures (I still have her stoic 5th grade school picture), stories from our schools, postcards from our vacations, etc. I remember the excitement of coming home from school and finding her letter on my bed: foreign stamps scattered across a colored envelope, addressed to me with her curly, distinctive handwriting. I can even recall when she told me I needed to start to address her letter to Macedonia, because it had declared independence and was its own country.
Writing to a pen-pal in another country can facilitate lifelong friendships- and at a minimum it creates a great learning experience that enhances social studies, geography, penmanship, and language skills. There are a couple of different ways to go about finding a pen-pal for your kids from another country.
1) Ask everyone you know.
Ask family, friends, and neighbors if they have a loved one abroad who would like a pen-pal. They might know an expat abroad, someone in the military based in another country, someone who is studying abroad, working as a missionary, a volunteer, or even have relatives who live in their home country. Make the connection with them and decide together if the pen-pals and your children would like to communicate via email, or if everyone is comfortable to dust off their stationary and mail letters through the post. There are advantages of both. Via email, your kids get almost instant gratification. If their writing partner uses a digital camera, it is easy to share a lot of pictures, and perhaps their pen-pal even posts to a blog where your kids can write back in the comments section. However, in many countries internet is not as widely used as we are used to. The advantages of old fashioned paper and pen are many.
Kids practice their writing skills, can send drawings and cards, learn to address and stamp an envelope, and enjoy going to the post office to buy special international stamps. Although there is some patience involved (you might wait months before getting a letter back from some remote locations), the excitement of getting a letter in the mail with their name on it is not lost in our digital age. Despite the expense, my kids have enjoyed sending little packages and homemade cards (especially at the holidays) to family members abroad, and of course they love receiving little presents even more.
2) Find a teacher or homeschooling parent who is looking for a pen-pal for their children.
There are a lot of web sites that over pen-pal “matchmaking” services. I personally am a little nervous about individuals who post here, because there is no background check or identify verification. Never post your personal information on the internet for all to see, and I would prohibit my kids from visiting chat rooms, where identities are unknown. However, when it is a teacher, at a school, and you can see the school’s web site, it is more secure. At a very popular site, Students of the World, teachers can post their country of origin, or search the posts to find a suitable class with whom they can exchange letters. Another popular, ePals, you can search the maps, and the various forums for people looking for pen-pals. Many times teachers will be looking for class partners, but there are also homeschooling families, and individual students searching for pen-pals. You could also register and post your own search.
3) Sign-up to correspond with a Peace Corps Volunteer (PCV).
There is a program for teachers in the US to be matched with a PCV through the “Wordwise Schools” program. When I was teaching Spanish, we had a volunteer based in Bolivia, who would share incredible stories with us in English and Spanish. A man on a burro came to pick up the mail every month from her high Andean village, and we exchanged letters once every couple of months. Not only did it give my students a chance to practice Spanish, it also gave us a glimpse of part of the world we probably won’t ever get a chance to visit. From their site:
A vibrant two-year exchange of ideas, stories, pictures, and artifacts that helps U.S. students in the classroom learn about the people, geography, environment, and culture of the world from the direct experience of Volunteers living in other countries.”
4) Write to military personnel based abroad.
There are many, many organization who will put you in contact with a man or woman in the military. Adopt-a-Soldier, Soldiers’ Angels are 2 popular organizations that support the US military. If you would like to write to someone in the HM Forces (UK), try Diedre’s Forces Penpal Service.
So get started today: find a pen-pal and locate their location on the globe. Find out more about their city or country from books in the library or on-line. Get some fun stationary for your kids, and be available to help them write their first letters. When you go to mail the first letter, buy several stamps of the correct amount, so that you are ready when the next letter comes. Have your kids draw some pictures, send a photo, ask questions- have fun with this intercultural exchange!
It’s so much fun to have a pen pal! You can learn alot about that person’s life in another country.

my son is 8 years old and we live in Colorado. He is very excited about having a penpal and doesn’t care which country/state they are from as long as they are around his age.

Hello,
Thank you so much for contacting us about our free international pen pal program.
It’s very easy to join our pen pal program and I am sure you and your students will find it a fun and rewarding experience.
We are a non-profit foundation that supports schools in Africa and Asia with educational materials. We also facilitate a free, international pen pal program, connecting the schools we support with English medium schools all over the world.
We have no restrictions on how you want to work our pen pal program, sharing letters, video, pictures, stories, poems…it is all well received by our schools overseas. We have technology teachers that have students write letters for keyboarding, and language arts teachers who use letters as a way to monitor composition and grammar progress through the year. You can customize the pen pal program to fit your needs.
We connect teachers and schools, not individual students, to insure safe correspondence. We only exchange school post mailing addresses. Email addresses of teachers can be supplied if desired but are not necessary to correspond with the pen pal school.
All I need from you is contact information to share with the school in Africa or Asia. It really is as simple as that.
I will email you the contact information for your new pen pal school, and send you a folder in the mail with details of our foundation and the free international pen pal program.
You can start writing – right away!

Greetings all the way from the UAE!
I’m looking for postcard swap partners, or penpals for Saif and Maitha.
Saif is 8 years old and in 3rd grade. He likes to learn and explore new things. His hobbies are playing outside, making new friends, and eating!
Maitha is 6 years old and in 1st grade. Her number one hobby is painting and drawing and sometimes crafts. She also like to collect stickers and use them around her room and drawings!
They always notice the big smile on my face when I receive postcards and mails from my overseas penfriends, so I would really like to give them the opportunity to experience the joy of receiving something written for them and waiting to be picked from the mailbox by them as well. 🙂
Please email me if your kid is interested to be friends with Saif and Maitha, or either: penpals4koalabear@outlook.com

Hello I am a mother. My son is ten years old and I would love to find him a pen pal from another country. We are from USA, and would need to have letters in English. I would also like another friend that is a boy too around the same age, to talk about fun things and I would love for him to get excited to receive mail and learn about another country and also make a life long friend. I had a pen pal when I was younger and loved it!
If any other mothers are reading this, this is something my son and I will do to together and all letters will be monitored for both children’s safety! Thank you! Can’t wait to hear from another parent!
Hi Jennifer I also have a 10yr old son who’s keen to have a pen-pal. We are from the U.K. so letters in english would be no problem at all. My son is keen on soccer, anything Lego or Star Wars and is also a Cub Scout. We are keen for him to have someone of a similar age to write to having had pen-pals ourselves when younger. He’s also keen to learn more about other cultures – America is of interest to him as his Math tutor is American so has sparked an interest! I am keen for my son to write letters to aid his grammar and spelling so like you we’d play a part in doing this activity together so correspondance would be monitored. Let me know if we’d be of interest for your son.

hello how are you all doing? I’m Miguel, from Portugal but, living and working in uk, I am looking for friends. I have always been keen on learning exotic languages, besides, learning languages can help you understand the world around you, as well as, developing a sense of self, where you become to comprehend whom you are as a person and the development you get from becoming acquainted to the world in which you are living upon. Friendship is what i am looking for, genuine friends, we all live in the same world, in the same planet, so, i guess that we all should have friends, specially those that have a lot in common, or a lot to say. Most of the friends i have are diverse and come from a multifaceted society, it is wonderful when you connect yourself in their world, learn about their language, and break the barriers of misunderstanding. so, if you would like to keep in touch, here is my whatsapp +447944298042, line is +447944298042
Maybe I’m missing something.. how do you contact people if you can’t leave an email?
Hmmm. Can you write myname (at) gmail (dot) com?
