Did you know F. D. Roosevelt was a stamp collector?
Did you know Benjamin Franklin was the first U.S. Postmaster General?
Did you know the first solo flight made by a woman was by accident?
Did you know a little girl was mailed 75 miles to her grandma's house?
Today we went to the Spellman Museum of Stamps in Weston, MA.
The program was fun and interesting to sutdents and parents alike!
We learned so many facinating things from the stamps.
Maybe we will start collecting!
Here my son is studing a stamp.
An F.D.R. stamp from a french country.

That sounds like a very fun outing!
Hi! I love stamps too and have collected them all my life. I was sooo keen on having my kids enjoy learning Hisotry and Geography through stamps. But they were just not interested! Shame.
