How do I write back to Banjo?

Hello – I’m Banjo Robinson!

I travel the world visiting exciting places like the pyramids, the Taj Mahal and the Great Wall of China, sending fun-filled letters to my human friends back home. That’s right, real letters! In the post! Addressed to YOU!

Why don’t you send me a reply? You can leave it under the sofa before you go to bed and I’ll ask one of my animal pals at the United Paws Postal Service to collect it overnight. I can’t wait to see what your handwriting is like! (I’ve heard great things.)

[Disclaimer: Sometimes Banjo writes his letters with the help of children’s authors you may know and love.]

Mini Explorer

Ages 4-6

The joy and fun of a magical friend!

If your children are excited about Father Christmas or the Tooth Fairy, this one’s for you! Perfect for kids who are just starting to read and write – they’ll usually add Banjo’s name to their reply envelope / draw a picture for him, rather than writing a lengthy reply. Either way, they’re associating the written word with FUN – and that’s our goal!

Ages 6-9

Fall in love with reading and writing!

Ideal for independent readers, these letters are a little bit longer. Sneakily educational, they encourage children to practice their handwriting by sending fun, sticker-covered letters to friends and loved ones – and they’re packed with interesting info about the languages, music, food, culture and animals of our amazing planet.
