***Registration to participate in the Nature Pen Pal Exchange for Winter 2025-2026 is now OPEN!***
Subscribe to our emails and be the first to hear about our seasonal exchanges and exciting updates.
You will need to fill out the NPPE Registration Form below to register your family and/or nature group. Upon submitting your registration form, you will be redirected to our payment gateway to complete your registration. Once redirected, you will need to add to your cart the (FAMILIES) Winter 2025 Nature Pen Pal Exchange for Families or (GROUPS) Winter 2025 Nature Pen Pal Exchange for Groups if you are registering your group instead of just your family and then checkout to complete your family or group’s registration.
The family fee to participate in this winter exchange is $20 and for nature groups, the fee to participate is $60.
Within a few weeks (before the winter exchange begins) after registering your family or group, you will receive an email telling who your family/group is paired up with (your nature pen pals), where they’re from, and the ages of their children. This can be helpful in knowing how you can compile your materials.
The start date for our winter exchange will be on December 21st and will end on February 15th which gives your family 8 weeks to collect your nature items for your pals. All exchanges will need to be mailed to your nature pen pals by or before the week of February 16th.
Please refer to our NPPE Guidelines to understand how to collect your items, how to set up your package for mailing, the safety of the local ecology, and other tips. Also, please read the terms and conditions here: Terms and Conditions.
We invite you to follow Nature Pen Pal Exchange posts & announcements on Instagram to see what everyone is collecting and sharing. We will share these on our page as our families share them on their accounts and when you share yours, don’t forget to hashtag your posts with #naturepenpalexchange so that everyone can find your NPPE posts.
We look forward to seeing everyone’s treasures this winter and we wish you and your family many happy adventures!
