Stamp Discovery for Homeschool Educators

We’re pleased to provide free topical stamps and educational lessons to homeschool families as part of the National Postal Education Center’s Stamp Discovery Education Program. Our materials offer a fun, hands-on way for students to explore a variety of subjects through postage stamps.

Ordering Educational Materials

To make our resources available to as many educators and families as possible, we offer lessons and topical stamp packets through our Stamp Discovery Store for Educators.

Homeschool families may place one order per month, requesting up to four lessons and four topical stamp packets per order.

All lessons and stamps are provided for educational use only. Lessons and worksheets may be copied for educational purposes but may not be altered, sold, or commercially redistributed. Stamps may not be sold or commercially redistributed.

Creating an Account and Placing Orders

You must create an account to use this free service. The store tracks your order history and allows you to place another order the following month. To help us serve as many families as possible, please follow these guidelines:

To help us serve as many families as possible, please follow these guidelines:

• Submit only one order per month per homeschool family and mailing address.
• Use one email address for your homeschool orders.
• Enter the number of participating students when selecting lessons or topical packets.

We may limit the number of orders accepted each day so our volunteers can keep up with processing. If ordering is temporarily unavailable, please try again the following day.

Order Confirmations and Processing

You will receive an order confirmation email after placing your order. Please check your inbox and spam folder, as we may contact you with questions before processing your request.

For lessons with worksheets, we provide a master copy that you may duplicate for educational use. If your order includes a PowerPoint presentation, the file will be available for download during checkout and may also be included in your confirmation email. Stamp packets are mailed separately.

Please allow up to three weeks for order processing. Our educational orders are prepared by a small group of dedicated volunteers who work limited hours each week.

Thank You!

There is nothing quite like learning with stamps! They encourage curiosity, creativity, and exploration of the world around us. Thank you for using our educational services and helping students discover the world through stamps.
