Many schools across the United States are participating in the America 250 Postcard Map Project for the U.S. 250th anniversary. Students collect postcards from different states, locate them on a large classroom map, and learn geography in a fun, hands-on way.
If you’re a parent, grandparent, or family member wanting to support a student in this project, this guide is for you.
The Problem
You want to help your child or grandchild succeed, but finding good postcards from specific states is surprisingly difficult and time-consuming.
We Make It Easy
At Christopher Arndt Postcard Co., we make it easy with our popular “Greetings From” U.S. state postcard series.
Each postcard is thoughtfully designed for school projects and includes:
- Large, bold state name
- Clear outline of the state’s shape
- Capital city highlighted
- Major cities shown
- Fun facts and trivia
- State flower and state bird
- State flag printed on the back
These details make the cards both educational and fun for students to receive.
Simple Ways You Can Help
- Ask your student or teacher which states they still need.
- Choose postcards from those states.
- Write a short note on the back and mail them.
- Let them enjoy finding the state on the map.
