Camp Stationery
This year is the first time we are on the sleep-away camp circuit. My daughter's excitement is palpable. Despite the looming freedom of a few weeks as empty-nesters, most of the parents that send kids to far-flung camps still want to hear from the spawn on occasion. That's where a cellphone with unlimited talk time might come in handy. Just kidding! Instead we pick these no-fuss camp cards.
You might get your active kid to send one of these...they are so cool. Personalized cards from StationeryStudio.

Realistically '??fill-in'? cards are the way to go. They are easy enough to fill out that your sleep-away campers will write home. In keeping with the company'??s witty voice, kids will appreciate the simplicity and possibly drop you a (life) line. We suggest pre-stamping and pre-addressing. The set of ten cards, pen and envelopes ($8.99) can be found at Amazon.
