Description:

well, ok so maybe "delightful" isn't the term you first think of for teens, but here's the swap...

Diddldonna and I were discussing swaps for kids (we recently did one for boys and one for girls respectively). This time, we thought it might be better to focus on the age of the kids.

This is for moms of teens (ages 13-18). (She has listed one for school age kids (ages 5-12)

and the toddler swap is at...

http://www.swap-bot.com/swap/show/4482

Specifics: Fill a box (at least shoe box size - what about 5"x4"x7"- or larger or equivalent with goodies that a teen might like. (check your partner's profile to see the ages and genders) Or look on message below. If your partner has several children try and make the box equal between the ages/gender.

For a cheaper option for overseas mail, you can include items in a light weight bubble wrapped envelope but items should be checked they fill a box with the measurements above first. Please secure well.

PLEASE LIST ALLERGIES

NO REQUESTS PLEASE

Items you could include are games, sweets, snacks, gift certificates (please check to make sure the business is in your partner's area), stationery, books, hair items. Make this a great box with plenty of goodies. Also why not wrap up each item (Only a request).

Because children are involved, I'm going to be tough on the guidelines - nobody with a rating under 4.8 will be admitted, no no-sends, no newbies. Sorry, but I'd hate to see a child disappointed. It will be an international swap.

There will be one swap partner for this and let's stick to the standard $10-$15 US (before postage). And, as always, please send only nice items that you would like.

I have 3 daughters - ages 13 (paper crafts, basketball), 13 (horses, paper crafts), and 16 (knitting, reading) and 1 son - 15 (football, games).

My daughter, Courtney, is 18. She just graduated from HS and is getting ready to attend a local college in the fall. She is spending the summer being a companion/caregiver to her great-grandmother. She adores purses and flip-flops (9/10). She scrapbooks, reads, spends time with little sister and niece(both nearly 3), likes 'chick-flicks', doing her nails, funky jewelry and socks(she doesn't wear these with the flip-flops!LOL)

I know she will be tickled to get any pkg. that someone would send her.

Hi. My daughter is 16 (will be 17 in July). I only have one request - she does not live with me so I was hoping whoever got my daughter to send to, could you send it to her address? Thank you!

This is so neat! My oldest son has just turned 18 and will be going to college this fall...sniff. This would be something fun to send with him to help with the homesickness.

I have a son Alan jr 15 and a daughter Sarah 17 living at home. We are in the process of geting our license to be Foster parents and may have more teens by the time this swap closes will let you know. Foster children do need to know someone out there cares. Thank you for doing this swap what a neat idea.

Sarah my 17yr old likes anything to do with Sponge Bob or Johnny Depp. Alan Jr 15 likes anything to do with the Colts Football. They both like Christian Rock Music and Little Alan likes AC/DC I know that is an oxy moron but we are very open minded.

My daughter Sylvia is 16. She loves makeup, anything that smells good. She is a typical girly girly at 16. She is excited about this swap.

I am only going to do this for one of my sons, since I have 5. LOL Ryan is 15, he will be 16 two days after the swap is over. He likes any kind of candy, he loves golf and he has his own car, so anything for a car would be fun. Let me know if you need more ideas. Thanks Kim and Ryan
