Character Reference for a Child

Dear {Name},

I am writing to recommend {Child's Name} inclusion in {program, club, school, etc.}.

I have known {Child's Name} for {length of time}, and in that time I have watched {him/her} mature remarkably. {Child's Name} is incredibly responsible, especially for someone {his/her} age. Beyond that, {he/she} is intelligent and receptive to learning new things.

{Child's Name} comes from a family that encourages {him/her} to ask questions, and to not be satisfied until {he/she} is sure that {he/she} has all the information {he/she} wants or needs. I always find that curiosity in a child is an ideal trait, and {Child's Name} has that in spades.

I know you are always looking for bright, resourceful, energetic children for {program, club, school, etc.}, and I can tell you that {Child's Name} is the embodiment of those characteristics. You would immediately regret not including {Child's Name} in {program, club, school, etc.}.

I unequivocally recommend {Child's Name} for admission into {program, club, school, etc.}, and I am happy to answer any further questions about {Child's Name} at any time.

Sincerely,

{Sender}
