  • Space Pandas say what? New writing activities for Letterbox Club parcels

    New writing activities for blue and red parcels

    In response to requests for writing activities, we've worked with author and illustrator Sam Lloyd and comic artist Neill Cameron to create writing activities in the Blue and Red Letterbox Club parcels.

     

    The Red parcel will contain a comic style writing activity to encourage creative writing in a fun way. The activity is two-sided. On one side is a Space Pandas comic drawn by Neill Cameron without the words, to allow the children to fill in the speech and thought bubbles with their own words. On the other side is a blank comic panel with tips on how to design, draw and write your own comic.

    Here is what Neill had to say about his contribution to the Letterbox Club parcels as well as a sneak peek at the Space Pandas featured in the activity.

    Neill is also contributing to the new Children’s Laureate project – Project Remix. We’d love to see older Letterbox Club children who receive the Green parcel or former Letterbox Club participants get involved.
