SNAIL MAIL IS WORTH THE WAIT!

10/24/2019

There are so many great things about today’s digital world, but do you know one of Paco’s non-digital favorites? MAIL. A nice note in the mail is a wonderful thing. An invitation to an event, a letter from an old friend, or a postcard!! Paco really appreciates the mail service. Did you know the US Postal Service has been around since 1775? That is when Benjamin Franklin became the first postmaster general. Mail delivery in the United States has continued since then. Amazing, isn’t it? 

To help you say thanks to all of your favorite postal workers, Paco created some simple and fun Thank You cards for you to print, color, write, and share! What a great way to show your support for this amazing American service. You can use the note cards to say thank you to anyone you’re grateful for too!  Just download the file below to begin.

Cooler weather and colorful trees, this is one of Paco’s favorite times of year. The pumpkin patches, apple orchards, and fall festivals bring lots of fun! And the fall harvest brings many good foods. Fresh foods right from the ground are always delicious. To help give you a better idea of what harvest is all about, Paco has created a harvest video for all his pals!

Click the video below to see what Paco has to share about harvest! 
Have you picked out a pumpkin for Halloween yet? Paco picked a BIG one for his pumpkin carving. Did you see how big it was on his postcard this week? He’s trying something new for his pumpkin this year. A PACO-LANTERN! He made a template to share so everyone can make a special Paco pumpkin too. 

If you’re ready to swap your Jack-o’-lantern for a Paco-lantern just download the template below. Have fun!
