Adventure Delivered to Your Mailbox

Meet Pip the mouse and his magical compass, traveling through time to share stories from history.

Each month, a new envelope arrives with letters, keepsakes, and quests—turning ordinary mail into extraordinary adventures the whole family can enjoy together.

A Year of Adventures, One Letter at a Time

There’s nothing quite like the joy of getting a letter in the mail—especially one filled with stories and surprises!

With Alderwick Adventures, that excitement arrives every month as your child receives a beautifully illustrated letter from Pip the mouse, who travels through history with his magical Finder’s Compass.

Inside are tales from history, little artifacts to hold, and fun quests to try at home. It’s an easy, screen-free way to make learning feel exciting and personal, one letter at a time.

Founded by a homeschooled daughter with a lifelong love of learning and teaching in many forms—from tutoring and classroom teaching to hosting creative workshops—and her mom, an artist who homeschooled five children over nearly three decades, Alderwick Adventures was created to make history feel alive again. Each mailing blends story, art, and the charm of real letters to spark curiosity, creativity, and connection. We believe learning should feel meaningful and hands-on—something to hold, imagine, and share together.
