Get The TechniqueMy brother went to camp on Sunday and I miss him already! I know how fun it is to receive mail, especially at camp, so I've put together a package for him. I had a hard time thinking of things a sixteen-year-old boy may like- check out the photo gallery below to see what I came up with (and please let me know if you can think of anything for my next care package!)
1 I stuffed everything in a shiny bubble envelope.
2 Seven fake mustaches- one for each day of the week, or plenty to share with friends! These make for some hilarious photos.
3 Sudoku, to keep his brain agile while out of school for the summer.
4 Dover temporary tattoos- Mermaids, Sharks, and "Savage Dinosaurs"- something for everyone!
5 The top three sharks on the left are my favorite. They would make a nice little cluster on a forearm.
6 Those dinosaurs DO look savage!
7 And some beautiful mermaids!
8 Some fruit leathers- delicious AND nutritious
9 And added a few plastic spiders- for practical jokes :)

bouncy balls and a mini frisbee.
a stack of cards for rain days.
gag gifts and pranks are also good fun.

Tattoos and mustaches sound like great fun for a family get together. Any suggestions on where I could buy some?

Where did you get the moustaches from?

Hi Julie- Amazon has a few varieties- here's a link to the mustaches pictured, by the toy company Schylling-

He's sixteen? Sorry if I sound mean, but I don't think temporary tattoos are the ultimate camp gift for a 16 year old.
I like the shiny bubble wrap though.
