Calling All Writers & Postal Carriers!


My kids are at the stage where they absolutely love to "write" letters, fold them (sort-of), put them in an envelope (yes, my husband is sick of wasting envelopes), and giving them to people or pretending to mail them. I think most kids go through this stage, boy or girl. It's fun!

The Melissa & Doug - Jumbo Stamp & Sort Mailbox Set is perfect for little writers and postal carriers. You know it's good quality when you see the creators are Melissa and Doug. It is wooden and the envelopes have velcro for the stamps. There is even a key to open the mailbox when it's full!

This could keep my kids busy for quite some time. Those are the best toys! And it's a good tool for teaching kids that people still write letters. Even with email around, people still like to get mail, especially kids.
