Kid Mail

Everyday, letters and drawings show up in our mailboxes from kids of all ages. They visited with their parents, grandparents, scout troops, and classmates. They tell us what they loved, what they remember, and what they learned. We know you will enjoy reading them as much as we do.

If you send us a note or drawing about your favorite visit to the museum, we won’t publish your name, but we may print it here.
