Description:

I love getting packages in the mail (I think we all do, otherwise we wouldn't be here!), and so does my son. In fact, I think he gets jealous sometimes.

The goal of this swap is to have the kid in your life get something special in the mail. It can be your child, grandchild, neice or nephew, younger brother or sister...anyone under the age of 18.

This is profile based, so make sure you have a good amount of information about the special kid(s) in your life so your partner has something to work with. Don't bother signing up if you don't have a detailed profile.

Some ideas could include: Stickers, small toys, a diary, kid-appropriate bath items, books, magazines, trading cards, etc. You have a week to think of something your partner's child should love.

Price Guideline around $10, not including postage. This doesn't mean you have to spend that much, only that your package should be worth that much. So for example if you make a doll and it costs you only $2 in supplies, but it's worth $8, and you also send a sheet of stickers, then you're good. :)

A heart rating would be a nice bonus to someone who takes the time to package the item(s) nicely, or to someone who puts a lot of thought into the package.

This swap is open to Newbies, but anyone with less than a 4.9 will be banned. Remember, this isn't just a member who will be disappointed, it's a child.

May I make a request to my partner? @NurseKelly is my sister, thus making her son my nephew... I have both nephews on my profile, and I'd prefer it if I got something for Jacob, if it's not inconvenient. This way here they each get something (DeVante from her partner, Jacob from mine), and the little guy won't feel left out :) Not a requirement, whatsoever. If they have something that fits DeVante, by all means, pass it my way!

...And I'm sure @nursekelly is going to complain about this :P

My daughter is 3 1/2 - I have updated my profile with her likes but she will be happy just getting something in the mail! Thanks for the swap!

@CraftyKate has this swap on her list and has deleted her profile information. She is now partially suspended.

@whisperwings -Thanks again for letting me know. I've contacted her partner and will angel if need be. How disheartening. :(
