Hello!
It’s time to show you the contents of our February parcel and, this time they had the theme of, Kindness.
The contents of this parcel were all about encouraging the recipient to show a little kindness to themselves, as well as to others.
February Contents:
Wooden Heart –
Your February parcel is all about love and kindness …and that means being kind to yourself too! The first item in your parcel this month, is a rustic wooden hanging heart. We loved the simple, no frills design and thought it would be a perfect addition to any space needing a little bit of love!
Button Badge, Sticker & Shout Card –
We just mentioned above that showing kindness means being kind to yourself too. Life has become a very different kind of hectic at the moment, whether it be the challenges of working from home, or possibly the even bigger challenge of home schooling – the struggle is real!
This sticker and button badge is a little reminder that kindness rules, whether that’s being kind to others, or to yourself.
If you do find yourself struggling to cope, we’ve also included a card for, Shout, a charity that we work closely with at The Smile Parcel.

Smile At Strangers –
Now, for something brand new! At the beginning of January, we began a new venture, creating Smile Prints.
But, don’t worry, The Smile Parcel is staying just where it is, in fact, The Smile Prints has been created to help us to create more parcels, as all proceeds go straight to The Smile Parcel.
So, whether you’re looking to print your own postcards to send to friends, or add a print to your wall, you’ll receive your chosen print in 5 different sizes and you can print as many copies as you like! If you fancy a browse, you’ll find us here: www.thesmileprints.etsy.com
“Pulling Each Other Through…” –
We loved this new postcard from Katie Abey – love is definitely helping us all to pull each other through at the moment, fingers crossed the kindness and love being shown across communities will continue long after the pandemic is a distant memory!
Smile Cards –
As always, there should be a couple of these little cards in your parcel, I’ve written one for you, and the blank one, is for you to write a short inspirational or positive message, and give to someone you know, or maybe, leave somewhere for a complete stranger to find.
Parcel Assistant –
The Pom-Pom Parcel Assistant who helped (or hindered!) us with packing your parcel this month was, Ronnie.
