17 Years in the North!
We share our REAL life stories, photographs, and Arctic experiences in a fun & educational interactive experience that kids will never forget!
Baffin Island (Beside Greenland)
Polar Pen Pal is an amazing resource! I brought the letters to school to use with my Grade 1 students. Each letter focused on a specific area of life in the far north, and was filled with useful links and learnings.
My students were so inspired, they turned our classroom into an Arctic village complete with a polar bear and inuksuit. I would not be surprised if some of them wind up visiting Iqaluit in their lifetime. I will definitely use the program again this year!

I love the concept that kids don’t have to receive a craft kit or a toy that they won’t play with – it is all centered around education.

The girls have truly enjoyed learning about everything from the Northern Lights to Igloos to Inuksuit. These all-inclusive lessons have been a wonderful addition to our home.

Enjoy the Arctic...
Without the Frostbite!
Put away the boring textbooks and print out an Arctic adventure!
The Arctic has been one of those mysterious far off places that, for many children, seems more like a fairy tale than an actual place where families live.
Learning about the Arctic, and the people who live there, can be challenging since there are few accurate resources available and few have had the life experience of living there. (Case in point, many books feature penguins and polar bears as being in the arctic but there are no penguins in the Arctic!)
POLAR PEN PAL brings an exciting and engaging way for children of all ages to learn about and have a real connection with the Arctic! Now your child can have the joy of having friends in the north that shares with them details of northern life and Inuit culture. With real life expereinces, videos, and printable activities ... they will soon have a deeper understanding and a personal connection with this far away, but very REAl place!
