Send Grandma a real letter.
She still checks the mailbox every day. Give her a reason. Type a letter to your grandmother on your phone; a real pen writes it and we mail it. Shipping included.
Why grandparents are the easiest people to write to
She does not have a smartphone, or she has one and does not like it. The mailbox is still where good news comes from. A letter from a grandchild, on paper, in handwriting, is read to the neighbor, propped on the counter, and kept in the Bible. You do not have to be a writer. You have to show up in the mailbox.
What to write to Grandma
- What you are doing right now. Job, school, the apartment. She wants the plain news.
- Something of hers you still use. The recipe, the blanket, the saying.
- A question about her life before you. She will write back. That is the point.
- When you will see her next. If you do not know, say you are working on it.
Example
Make it easy for her to read
Pick a clear print handwriting and a larger writing size in the editor. Full Letter on white paper gives the most room and the most contrast. A real stamp on the envelope, your return address on the back so she can write back. Both sizes include postage. See the current total before you pay. Pricing.
Questions
Can I make the writing bigger?
Yes. Writing size goes from tiny to huge in the editor. For a grandparent, pick Large or Big and a print style.
Can I send one every month?
Yes. Each is its own order and takes a few minutes on your phone. A monthly letter to a grandparent is the best habit on this website.
Can I send it to a nursing home?
Yes. Put the facility name on the first address line and her name on the recipient line. We check the address with USPS before you pay.
