Travel clubs for kids

A new place each month — maps, postcards and dispatches from somewhere else. 9 clubs, cheapest first.

Travel mail covers one place a month — a country, a city, a region — usually through a mix of postcards, maps, a recipe and a letter written from somewhere in it. It is the most educational category that does not feel like homework, and it works well from about five, when a child can hold onto the idea that other places exist.

Watch the shipping on this one. Several of the best travel clubs are British or Australian and add international postage on top of the headline price.
