Camp Care Package Restrictions? Ideas on How to Fill Large Envelopes with Fun!

    FAIRFIELD, CT, June 30, 2015 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Whaaaaa??? Your child's camp just changed the care package policy. Only large envelopes are allowed. No boxes. Oh dear! This has become an increasingly common scenario over the last few years. Camps are concerned about space in the bunks, disposal of packaging materials and difficulty of distributing large boxes. Makes sense!

Do not despair! We've come up with a list of fun and funny things that all fit nicely into a 12"x9" USPS padded envelope:

Origami papers, Cat's Cradle Book
Temporary Tattoos and Stickers
Puzzle books (word search, crosswords, dot to dot, mazes, MadLibs)
Journals,notebooks, sketchpads, and colored pencil sets
Sleep Masks and earplugs
Card games and travel-sized games
Friendship bracelet floss, parachute cord bracelet kits, mini rubber bands bracelet kits
Jump ropes, pick up sticks, cootie catchers
Water Balloons, rocket balloons, mini beach balls, punch balloons
Rubber insects (snakes, cockroaches, etc.)
Whoopee Cushions

Are you feeling inspired? Embrace the challenge and don't forget a short note!
