How can I wrap this?

[tracya]

My 11-year-old son is going to a birthday party this weekend for a friend. The boy likes to camp so we're going to make it a camping theme present. So far I have a book called Campout: The Ultimate Kids Guide, a flashlight, and a whistle. I'm sure I'll find more little stuff when I go to Walmart or Dicks in their camping department. I need some more ideas of things he can use when camping and also a cool way to present the gift. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

What if you get a bandana, put all of the gear into it and tie it on the end of a stick?

How about in a backpack that he can use while hiking? or in a new (small) cooler?

The bandana on a stick sounds fun !

I like the idea of the bandana but don't know that it will all fit.

His Mom said he already has a backpack, but the cooler might be an idea. Thanks.

I think the cooler idea is great. Let us know what you decide to do.,

You could wrap it in one of those foil space blankets.

Oh, those foil space blankets are great for camping! What great wrapping too.

Could you perhaps find a camo fleece blanket? Then tie it up like the bandana on a stick that Kim suggested. Or even some fleece camo fabric!

Oh, good idea. That could be used year around.

Pam great idea. I suppose thats why people ask questions on here. There are always such great answers.
