Creative Pen Pal ideas:

Make up a code/decoder and write your letter in code. Mail it to your pen pal, don’t forget to send the decoder with your letter.

Sample Code: 8 5 12 12 15 / 13 25 / 14 1 13 5 / 9 19

3 8 18 9 19 20 25.

Sample decoder:

A = 1 / N = 14
B = 2 / O = 15
C = 3 /P = 16
D = 4 /Q = 17
E = 5 / R = 18
F = 6 /S = 19
G = 7 /T = 20
H = 8 /U = 21
I = 9 /V = 22
J =10 /W = 23
K = 11 /X = 24
L = 12 /Y = 25
M = 13 /Z = 26
