I am sending gifts to war torn countries with the shoe box christmas appeal and was hoping someone might have some ideas what kids aged 11-14 might like as you can`t send food ,clothing only things like hats,gloves,sunglasses,and only some toiletries such as toothpaste,tooth brush,comb but i wanted to send something special but needs to be the size to fit in a shoe box i`m sending seperately for both boy&girl .ANY IDEAS AS I HAVEN`T GOT A CLUE WHAT KIDS TODAY MIGHT LIKE?

This is such a great ministry, our church does this every year. I would say send something like hand held electronic games. . .but then how hard is it for them to get replacement batteries? How about something like collector cards like Yugio or personal journals? That's a hard one. Hope you get some great ideas. God bless you for reaching out.

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
