Make someone smile!

Before she got her Nintendo DS (insert raspberry here!), my dear princess was known to send a note or an ecard to a friend or relative almost every day. I thought it was an absolutely charming thing. Today the inbox is almost just like the mailbox: cluttered with junkmail and business too often, and correspondance from loved ones too seldom by comparison. My little girl was sending a note to let her friends, and sometimes me, know she was thinking about them.
Summertime is as good a time as any to send a smile to someone that way. Check out these sites to find some family safe and free ecards for your kiddos to send to their buddies.

• Crosscards


• Yahoo! Kids ECards


• Monterey Bay Aquarium ECards


• American Girl ECard Central (currently closed, but hopefully opening again soon)

or visit your favorite kids site (there's a list here) and type ecards in its search tab.

While your checking them out, why don't you send one to your kiddo!
