Children and the young at heart

Phila and Franco are back

The new stamp set contains 20 pages of games, fun and excitement about stamps and writing. The comic heroes Phila and Franco obviously feature again, too. And with a bit of luck, you could win one of 20 sets in our competition.

Stamp set for children 1/2022

As well as the adventures of the two friends, there are puzzles and craft activities. But children will also learn information about stamps, such as how to use tweezers. What are the best ways to store stamps? What does a letter experience on its way from the sender to the recipient? Also included are eight stamps and three postcards for children to colour in and paint themselves.

The cupcake recipe is a particular treat, and it’s directly related to one of the stamps. Included in the set are:

  • The owl design by Celestino Piatti
  • The habitats of the snail and common kingfisher
  • The chimney sweeper design
  • The cupcake design as a greetings stamp

Four are cancelled and four are mint.

Swiss Post’s stamp set for children is suitable for seven- to ten-year-olds and aims to help them discover the world of stamps. It is available from Postshop and larger Swiss Post branches as a single issue for 12 francs.
