A Tale of Two Stanleys

Brock is really interested in getting mail.  He has a magazine subscription that he gets every 2 months I think and every now and then someone sends him a card for a random holiday.  But everyday when I get the mail, I hope there is some sort of junk mail so that Brock can open it.  I've been trying to think of ways Brock could get more mail for himself.  That's where Stanley comes in.

The first Flat Stanley project was presented to me by a friend in my online mommy group.  We worked together to work out a schedule and a route for Flat Stanley.  This Stanley is starting in Georgia and traveling all over the United States and some of Canada and then back to his starting point in Georgia.  Blog followers probably won't hear much about this Stanley...he a private group kind of thing.  You'll hear about him when we get him and probably again at the end when he's made his travels to all his stops.

The second Stanley is Brock's. 



He colored him all by himself!  This Stanley is going to go out to friends and family and then come right back.  That way Brock gets mail a little more frequently and we can talk about each of his destinations individually.

Stanley will be placed in an envelope, sent to all different destinations with a letter explaining what to do with him and then sent back to us. We'll update you on his whereabouts as he travels.  Brock is very excited!

If you want to know more about Flat Stanley, a Google search will bring up tons of information.  Or you can read the book Flat Stanley: His Original Adventure by Jeff Brown.
