4 through 46/Foster family/US Looking for World Wide

We are a family new to fostering and I (dad) would like to find a snail mail pal or three to exchange letters and other simple items with our son and three foster kids (two boys and a girl).

The kids are aged 4 to 7, so you'll be mailing with a variety of interests and writing capability.  The kids are pretty typical kids with typical interests for their age.

Mom is a chemist, while I'm a software developer working from home. We're getting to be a gaming family - - the kids are digging Minecraft on their tablets and mom and I just spent a weekend at a role playing game convention.

We're in the US, but where you're from isn't a huge consideration for us. Mom speaks some French, I speak some Spanish and can muddle through with German, Russian, Finnish, and Australian.

We can split the audience if you like -- you could write to just the kids if that interests you.  I imagine many letters will have to be transcribed by mom or I, but you could get up to 6 different letters if you like.  Or just one as some sort of composite.

We're still learning to live together as a foster family, but I think we can be safe sharing our lives with other folks around the world. I know this'll be a great learning experience for the kids and a good experience for all of us.
