Somehow, when a Flat Stanley is included, it's as if we have a mutual friend and communication becomes easier. One of my favourite replies was from the legendary musician and social activist Pete Seeger who wrote: "Kids- if YOU keep your sense of humor, and reach out to other kids in ALL the world, and get them to reach out to you in their own way, there may be a human race here in another 100 years!"Communicating through penpals and electronic penpals is a great idea, but children often don't know what to say when writing to a stranger. The Picture Gallery has pictures of Flat Stanleys with Clint Eastwood, Arnold Schwarzenegger, prime ministers, presidents. The recipients can be selected from the List of Participants that includes tends of thousands of students from 47 countries.Ĭhildren also send Flat Stanleys to celebrities, scientists, politicians, musicians and people of interest. Pictures and souvenirs are often included. The recipient treats the Flat Stanley as a guest, takes it places, does things with it, then returns it and the completed journal.
