Default Help with my daughter's school project

Ok, so my 8 year old daughter is in the third grade. Her class just read a book called Flat Stanley about a kid who gets flattened by a bulletin board, but not hurt. His parents take advantage of his flattened condition to mail him to Cali to visit a friend.

Anyway, her class are making their own "Flat Stanley" paper doll and they are going to send them to friends or family in other cities. The teacher would like the recipients to send Flat Stanley back with a small inexpensive souvenir from the city he goes to. Also, maybe a picture of Flat Stanley at a monument or something would be cool (my idea).

So who would like to help with this? All our family is here local in NC. Pretty boring. I would appreciate anyone's help and the farther away, the better. So come on and step up and help out the sweetest third grader in the world.

Here's a picture of my three sweetie pies the weekend I got my S.....

If you want to go world wide I don't mind helping out. I am in Hong Kong (I know the screen name is wrong, but I have moved now )

Yes, just one person. Each kid is making their own Flat Stanley and then mailing them. When they come back, they're going to show where they went andwhat they did. Thanks for the offer. I really appreciate it. No offense, but I think Hong Kong is more exciting for them than Texas.
