What people are saying

  • “My parents love my postcards and I never would have done it without Familyletter, I don’t think I have ever even bought a stamp before. Love it and will keep using them!”
    Tricia M.
  • “This is such a good “thinking of you” gift, it feels way more intentional than sending a text”
    Alex U.
  • “I sent the first one as a joke and now everyone asks when the next one is coming”
    Patrick E.
  • “I’ve been sending postcards back and forth with some long distance friends and I genuinely forgot how fun it is to get something in the mail that isn’t a bill lol”
    Steven G.
  • “I visited my grandparents last week and it was awesome to see their fridge covered with my postcards! They seem to really appreciate them”
    Eric S.
  • “I sent one to my best friend after she moved across the country and now we’re obsessed. We talk all the time but getting real pics is totally different.”
    Georgia K.
  • “My boyfriend and I are long distance and this hits completely different than texting pictures. We already FaceTime constantly so having an actual picture of him on my desk feels less digital.”
    Claire O.
  • “I send a few postcards a month to my buddies from college, it’s kind of like a monthly time capsule”
    Elijah P.

What to write in a Mother's Day card from kids

Name one real thing she does. Lines to borrow:

  • Nobody in this house hugs like you do. Happy Mother's Day.
  • Thank you for every packed lunch, late pickup and Band-Aid.
  • Mom, you're our favorite person. Dad said we could write that.
  • Ava picked the photos. Ben picked the sticker. Dad paid. We love you.
  • I'm grown now and I still call you first.
  • You taught me to ride a bike, then to drive, then to cook. Thank you.
  • To the mom of our kids: they're funny and kind because of you.

Mother's Day card questions

Is it a folded card or a postcard?

A postcard: one 4x6 glossy photo card, photos on the front, your note on the back. With no fold there's no envelope to address and no stamp to buy.

When should I mail a Mother's Day card?

Order at least 15 days before Mother's Day. Most cards arrive in 5 to 10 business days, though delivery isn't guaranteed and USPS slows down in busy weeks.

Can I send Mother's Day cards to more than one mom?

Yes. Put up to 10 cards in one order, each going to its own US address: your mom, your mother-in-law, a friend with a new baby.

Should I give my wife a Mother's Day card?

That's up to the two of you. If you do, make it a Mother's Day card for Mom from the kids: they pick the photos and say the note, and you type it.

How much does a Mother's Day photo card cost?

One card is $9.99 with postage included and free shipping on every order. Five cards are $34.99, or $7.00 each.
