Even the most passionate collectors admit that stamp collecting is not glamorous. It doesn’t possess the flashiness of contemporary trends; it doesn’t race by like the exhilarating pace of a video game or embody the frenetic spirit of a Cartoon Network show. However, this perception will change with the introduction of CLUB, which stands for Collectors Love Unlimited Bartering. The real challenge lies in getting children involved. Child development specialists emphasize that stamp collecting offers numerous benefits. Unfortunately, these ‘cool’ stamps are scarcely delivered to mailboxes today, as traditional mail becomes increasingly rare. Moreover, few children know others who actively collect stamps. This is where parents and educators play a crucial role in sparking interest, and the CLUB is a perfect platform for this. An e-stamp must be included when sending a Fun email with exciting postal content. Sending emails within your country or state is free, provided the message is limited to one thousand characters. Engaging in correspondence with collectors from around the globe is thrilling and contributes positively to your child’s development. Some advantages:
- They slow down,
- It is not about winning,
- Improve writing,
- Develop focus and patience,
- Learn languages,
- Create (international) friendships,
- Develop business acumen,
- Discover amazing artwork.
E-stamp collecting is not just a hobby; it’s an educational journey. Gain knowledge and expertise as those who embrace
E-Stamps Are Not Just Collectibles
They are a gateway to a world of knowledge. Each e-stamp is linked to information about its topic, providing children with a unique learning experience that will broaden their horizons. They will learn about history, biology, politics, major global events, international relations, geography, and literature. They will also learn about languages, currencies, and historical figures, leading to a better awareness of who you are in this global society. In addition to the e-stamps, the e-envelope comes with artful designs related to the eStamp, making it even more interesting to collect. Some kids may focus on U.S. e-stamps, learning about U.S. history and famous Americans. Others might collect e-stamps from their countries of ancestry. The educational value of e-stamps is immense.
The CLUB has established dedicated spaces known as Rooms, tailored for groups of young collectors. These Rooms function as a private social platform where members can regularly engage and participate in various CLUB activities. Access to the CLUB Room will be facilitated through a specially designed website, created in collaboration with our design team. Within the CLUB Room, young members can communicate with one another, cultivating a sense of camaraderie and connection that is distinctive to the world of stamp collecting.
Adults interested in overseeing and guiding a CLUB Room are warmly invited to step forward. Membership to the CLUB Room is free for children who possess a CLUB membership. The Room manager has the opportunity to organize polls and quizzes and collaborate with the group to create e-stamps that may be featured as the next FUN e-stamp series. The recommended age range for joining a Kid’s CLUB Room is between 8 and 16 years old. An expanding community of parents and educators support the notion that this hobby is one that should be encouraged among children.
Children have the freedom to curate their own collections, as this pastime is governed by no strict rules. They can choose to gather items that resonate with them, whether that be themed around American wildlife or a beloved topic of theirs. The FUN postal services frequently release new stamps that showcase a wide array of subjects, from the wonders of nature and the cosmos to classical music, renowned figures, and celebrities. In today’s digital age, traditional stamp collecting faces more competition for a child’s attention than it did five decades ago. Yet, the hobby will be making a remarkable comeback!
