How Does The Mail Get To Us?

Today Patchwork Preschool took a tour of the post office to see what happens to the mail when we drop it off!  

We saw all the back rooms of the post office where they sort the mail.  We also learned that most of the sorting is done at night when we are asleep!

 

We watched this machine sort 7-8 letters per second!  It was so fast, the letters were a blur!

We saw lots of mail stacked in bins ready to go to this place or that place.

Thanks for the tour, Mark!  We had a great time and learned a lot!

After the tour, we all got to personally mail some letters to our grandparents!  We can't wait to get some mail in return!
