A very good experience for speaking English with children of the same age, it makes you want to learn. Très bonne expérience pour parler en anglais avec des enfants du même âge, ça donne envie d'apprendre.

The website is safe and has good safeguarding features. It would be better if it would allow to upload more pictures and if it would let us choose the place of the keepsake.
