A new baby

Something to hand them
in about eighteen years.

Everybody sends a card in the first fortnight and nobody keeps them. Collect what people actually want to say, and it is still there when the baby can read it.

Free. No app. The people writing never make an account.

What comes back

Written alone, so nobody
copies the person above.

Your dad once reversed a van into a canal. You will hear about this again.

Uncle Rob

Sleep when you can and ignore absolutely everyone, including me.

Kath

Welcome. It is loud here but mostly quite good.

Jo

If they are stuck

The nudges we give them.

Everyone who opens your link sees prompts like these. It is the difference between a blank box and a story.

What you want them to know about their parents

The world as it is this week

Advice for the parents, honestly

A wish for the child

Questions

A new baby, specifically.

Either. Most people write to the parents in the first weeks and to the child for later. Both go in the same kit.

Only the one you set, and you can leave it blank if there is no fixed day.

Collecting is free and uncapped. Hooray Plus is £12 once per kit, and turns the messages into a full screen reveal for the day and a print-ready booklet. You only buy it once the messages are in.
