Description:

It's so interesting to see the newspaper headlines from other countries, and we had fun with this swap last year. So, I'm going to do it again!

This swap is limited to only one person per country, so it's guaranteed that you will get newspaper pages from countries other than your own. When you sign up, please list your country below.

You will have three partners. To each one, send the front page of your Christmas Day newspaper, plus a letter telling what you like to do on Christmas Day. Is there a special meal you enjoy making, or a family tradition that makes the day memorable? Tell your partner what makes Christmas wonderful in your family.

If your newspaper is not written in English, that is fine! It makes it all the more interesting, don't you think?

To get extra newspapers, ask your neighbors or friends to save their papers for you. Or, you could just buy extras at the news stand. I'm allowing several days after Christmas to send your swap, because the holidays are a busy time for all of us.

In summary, you will send one front page of your own Christmas Day newspaper to three partners, along with a letter.

If you have any 1s, you may not join this swap. If you have a history of late sending or flaking, please do not sign up. If you flake, your name will go on my "Naughty List", which is something you do not want! I will be checking profiles of those who sign up. Newbies are welcome, but please have your profile filled out with more than a few lines.

EDITED DEC 15* Deadline for sign up is extended til December 22! So there is still one more week if you all want to join!

Must it be one dated Christmas Day? I think most newspapers here don't publish on that day since it's a public holiday....

(here = Germany)

Hi, @pne Your Christmas week edition of the paper, or the issue from the day before Christmas would be fine. Preferably with some mention of the holiday!

Aw, shucks, you've already got a USA representative. Any chance you'd host this swap for one country, and use states or even cities?

TereDiane1954 12/ 7/2014 #

Good morning, @AndreaJ ! I've created a US version of this swap just for you! Merry Christmas!

TereDiane1954 12/11/2014 #

Only four days left, all you watchers! I'd love to have you join!

@CaitlinD93 , I'm sorry, but you have one other from your country already signed up. I will, however, do a private swap with you if you'd like! I'll pm you later today.
