What is the Snail Mail Club?

✨Real Letters! Real Stories! Real Magic!✨

Are your children spending too much time on screens? The Snail Mail Club is a unique subscription service. We send beautifully written personally-addressed letters to your child, twice a month by regular postal service with a gripping, age‑appropriate story that sparks imagination, encourages reading habits, and creates joyful screen-free moments that your child will look forward to again and again.

Each letter is part of an unfolding adventure filled with mystery, friendship and wonder, designed to:

  • Spark imagination and creativity.
  • Build reading skills and confidence.
  • Create screen-free moments the whole family can treasure.

🌟 More Than Just Stories — A Learning Adventure

Snail Mail Club isn’t just fun — every letter helps your child grow. Through regular, screen-free reading, your child develops:

  • Stronger reading skills — each story builds vocabulary, comprehension, and fluency in a natural, enjoyable way.
  • A vivid imagination — adventures encourage creativity, storytelling, and curiosity about the world.
  • Confidence in communication — reading together opens conversations, questions, and storytelling practice.
  • Healthy focus — screen-free moments that spark concentration, patience, and a love for real stories.
  • Lasting connections — personalised letters create excitement and special moments to share with parents or grandparents.

With every envelope, your child isn’t just entertained — they’re learning, growing, and building a love of reading that will stay with them for life.

Why families love it: 💌

  • The thrill of seeing their name on a real letter in the post.
  • Stories that grow with your child’s imagination.
  • Keepsakes to collect, reread, and treasure forever.
  • Classic themes, fantasy & adventure—crafted for developing readers.
  • Includes discussion prompts & mini‑activities to deepen comprehension.
