My camp staff LOVE Amazon and honestly, I can't blame them. You can find just about everything on Amazon and with Prime you get free shipping. If you can't get to the store right away you can have something shipped to you within days. There are a lot of reasons to use Amazon! Here are some of the best finds for camp counselors on Amazon.
#1: Stickers
Waterbottles stickers are all the rage at camp! You'll be the envy of your co-counselors when you have the perfect reward for campers always handy. You can also use them to decorate clipboards, water bottles, and whatever else your heart desires. They make great pick-me-up gifts to stick in your friend's mailbox too. The best part is that you can get a pack of 300 stickers for cheap on Amazon! 300 stickers is enough to last you the entire summer!! See our staff favorite pick here.
#2: Motivational Quote Cards
We all need a little motivation from time to time and being a camp counselor is hard work. These little cards are perfect for handing out to co-workers, campers, or even yourself. The colors are super fun, so they also make great decorations. For just $14.99 you get 300 cards, which is plenty for the entire summer!! See my personal favorite
here.
#3: Greeting Cards
Chances are you will have a bit of downtime at some point. I personally love to send letters to friends and family members. It's an easy way to make someone's day! You can find blank greeting cards on Amazon for way cheaper than any party store. I love
these fun cards because of the bright colors, but there are many options to choose from! The best part is that if you have leftovers they can be saved and used as future thank you cards. They are also quite nice to have on hand if you have a few homesick campers.
#4: Hair Ties
This one is more for counselors with long hair. Summer will be hot and you're not going to want to have your hair on your face and neck. In addition, you will almost always have a camper who forgets to bring hair ties and wants their hair braided. You can find a set of super colorful hair ties on Amazon for just $10.99!! These also make great gifts for other staff!
Here is the staff's favorite pick.
#5: Waterproof Phone Pouches
If you're a summer camp counselor, it is likely that at some point you will be participating in activities that involve water. Whether it's a kayaking trip, rainy day, or puddle jumping you'll want to make sure that your phone and any other possessions stay dry.
This is my favorite pick because it comes as a pack of 6. The pouches are great for other things that you don't want to get wet such as receipts, money, cards, etc. They can also make a nice gift for other counselors.
