Mail Tag
A lot of people ask me "What do talk about with your penpals?" I usually tell them anything you talk about with your friends! Sometimes it isn't that easy because you have to put down what you are thinking on paper. It seems to get more effortless when you have written to a penpal a few times and know more about their personality. Mail tag is a great way to break the ice or if you are stuck with what you want to talk about.
So What is mail tag?
Mail tag is a way to get to know your penpals better. All you have to do is include questions with your letter for your penpal to answer. You can ask as many or few as you want. You can ask actual questions, prefences, or them to include something. Let your imagination run wild! Once your penpal answers your mail tag, you can always respond to their answers in your letter if you have something to add or what to tell them something that relates to it. You can put "mail tag" on anything (it doesn't have to be written on a tag). Same with your answers. Sometimes I answer the questions in my letter, sometimes I just put them on a seperate piece of paper.
Here are 100 different mail tag questions or topics for you to send your penpal:
