To ask what you'd think if you got this letter please?

[fruitandbarley]

If you received a letter from another parent at your kids school saying that kids had been playing together at school and that their child had said they'd like to arrange to play together outside of school ( playdate I suppose but I hate that word), and saying that they'd tried to catch you in playground but other kid goes to after school club so never there at same time, and to let them know if you'd like to arrange something.
Would you think it was weird, or ok?
I'm the one who sent the letter, we've not long moved to the area.
I've had no message/reply so wondering now if they think I'm odd.

Maybe check with the leader? Hopefully he didn't just put it in the child's bag!

perfectly fine OP. I done that a few years ago as DC kept mentioning this name so I just asked school to pop it in the friends bag/pass it on to parent. I was often at work and I didn’t know who the parents were. It was close to the summer holidays so I thought it’s now or never 🤣

Then I got a text off the Mum a few days later saying great let’s meet and the kids have been best friends ever since!

@fruitandbarley yeah only 3 days, I'd leave it a bit, but there was nothing wrong with your note, however, next time a big bright envelope or attached to a lion maybe? Small notes are likely to fester in school bags orvslip inside a book or something.

Totally normal and lovely to receive a note like that.

If they are anything like me it will take a few days/week to reply!

I'd like it. I struggle with the "rules" of these things and would appreciate an explicit letter like that.
