For a lot of kids, attending summer camp is a rite of passage.  Although most kids find the varied activities and new friends made at summer camp exhilarating, they still long for home and can oftentimes become quite homesick.

No matter whether your child is attending camp or at an extended stay elsewhere this summer, such as grandma's house, GourmetGiftBaskets.com has created a terrific assortment of kid-friendly care packages to let your little one know they are missed.  I had the opportunity to review the Deluxe Summer Fun Camp Care Package, chocked full of toys and games to keep them entertained all summer long.  Keep reading to learn more!

I thought that the Deluxe Summer Fun Camp Care Package was a wonderful idea, for this care package contained a ton of great toys designed to help your children enjoy the summer, both indoors and out.  As you can see from the picture below, this care package contains a wide variety of toys, all fairly gender neutral, that any child ages 4 - 12 years old would thoroughly enjoy.

Just check out all of the fun stuff included in the Deluxe Summer Fun Camp Care Package:

• Balloon Launcher - Hours of fun for your kid and their newest best friend.
• Plastic Frisbee –So versatile, this Frisbee is a must for any camp care package.
• Mini Squirt Guns - 4 pack – You may be causing havoc for the camp counselor, but your child will love these!
• Pet Shaped Rubber Band Bracelets - 12 pack – You wouldn't dare send a care package that doesn’t include these for they are the current phenomenon!
• Splash and Swim Goggles - 2 pack – Don’t be a fool, make sure they have goggles for the pool!
• Glider Airplanes - 19" – Let their imagination take flight with these awesome glider planes!
• Temporary Tattoos – Send these to avoid them coming back with a real one!
• Bubbles with Wand - 8 oz. – Need we say more? Such a timeless classic, fun for all ages!
• Rainbow Yo-Yo - 2" – So simple, yet so much fun. One is never too old for a yo-yo.
• G2Air Rubber Playground Ball – Foursquare, kickball, dodge ball, this ball covers it all!
• Tie Dye Beach Ball - 16" - This dynamic, colorful ball is great for a variety of games!
• Large Football with Tail – Keep that arm in shape for fall football season!
• Wind Raiders Air Missiles – This one just beams with fun, all they’ll need is a partner!
• Glow In the Dark Bracelets - 15 per tube – Light up the night with these fun summer camp care package accessories!
• Glow Bars - 2 per package – These unique glow bars can be used for a variety of fun activities after the sun goes down!
• Wind Raiders Foam Sling Shooter – A great game to play with friends and get plenty of exercise.

The only thing that disappointed me about this set of toys is that the two catch and throw Wiffle ball toys are NOT included, as shown in the picture on the GourmetGiftBaskets.com web page.  These toys are so much fun and I have to admit that I didn't read the detailed item description when choosing this particular care package.  I just wish that the Deluxe Summer Fun Camp Care Package picture would be updated on the website, so as not to be misleading to anyone else.

I still highly recommend the Deluxe Summer Fun Camp Care Package from GourmetGiftBaskets.com though!  This would be a wonderful surprise to a homesick youngster while providing a myriad of fun activities to wile away the hours until they are back home again.  Unlike a care package containing food or other goodies, this one will continue to please and delight all summer long!
