What should I send to my penpal ?

       Whilst sending and receiving letters themselves is great fun, I often enjoy popping a little something else in the envelope with my outgoing letters, and this is especially true with my  international pen pals as we have so much to share in terms of culture. Even the smallest little surprise can be fascinating to the recipient. With that in mind, I’ve created a list below of 50 items you could pop in your envelope with a letter to your penfriend. I’ve tried to keep the items fairly slim, so you don’t end up paying too much on postage.
