Postcard exchange

(Goblin is 27 months)
Before Christmas Goblin got a pen pal in Australia. Obviously Goblin can't actually read and write yet, but I thought it would be fun for him to get some post of his own. So now he is sending postcards to Master D over at HappyWhimsicalHearts. When ever we go anywhere exciting Goblin picks a nice postcard to send. I write it and Goblin usually adds a scribble.
This is the first one we sent.
And last week Goblin got his first one from Master D. Its a lovely picture of Australia. It arrived while I was at work but Hublet showed it to Goblin and they talked about the animals pictured on the post card.
 There is even a beautiful dingo pictured on the stamp. 
Master D looks at the globe to see where the postcards come from. I'm not sure that Goblin grasps the concept of countries, or living in different parts of the world yet. But thats something we can look at when he's older. And I can keep the post cards so when he is old enough I can show him again.
Its lovely to think he's made a friend over the other side of the world and he's only 2 years old.
