Today, in the teen portion of the family group program, we had the teens write letters of appreciation to their parents. We will mail the letters for parents to receive in a month or so. The kids did a great job writing the letters. However, it became clear to me that the whole idea of sending a letter was quite foreign to them:
-A number of kids didn't know their full address.
-Few kids knew how to address a letter (what to write and where, i.e. "To Mom," won't get it to your house).
-Some didn't know where to put the stamp.
-Most stared at the sheet of paper and the legal-sized envelope and weren't sure how to get the letter into the envelope.
Maybe we should just have the kids send their parents a text message.
