Why a boy? Seems kind of odd to me.
Not sure why she needs a BOY pen pal but she should be able to find someone to write to here:
Start with someone in her class.
Many teachers coordinate pen pal programs.
Also, you might get some information from your public library. There might be other kids interested.
There are pen pal programs, or there used to be, in which children from different countries could correspond.
You might ask some of your local church groups because they often have American families on mission or have church support groups in other countries.
I would start with the possibilities near you and go from there.
Pen pals are awesome. Especially when they receive the mail from a different city, state, or country.
Best wishes.
Huh? Please excuse me but why? Start with family members, not the internet.
Sometimes schools have pen pal programs. Maybe you could check with her school and see if they can hook her up?
