So, I'm making his half way box. (A shoe box that we send with them since subs don't always get mail drops, that the boat holds until the half way point).

So far I've got:
Pictures to refill his mini album in case he's tired of the ones I send him with.
Puff paint that glows in the dark to make his pillowcase.
2 Make Your Own Manga books - One I'm going to make for him, and one I'm leaving blank for him to make, and the markers to do it with.
Field goal football (like the paper football game you played at lunch in school).
Magnetic Tangram - a mind puzzle with different shaped magnets that you have to fit together.
Cards labeled for different kinds of days - days you need a laugh, days you're homesick, days you're frustrated, etc.
Mad Libs for President, so he can have election fun. :hehe
Hand Blasters
A pirate eye patch. :giggle
Invisible Ink "Fleet" book
Fun Dip
A Pez Dispenser that looks kind of like me :yes
Twizzlers
Plastic Craft Lace and Embroidery Floss for him to make knot chains.
A Jar of Nutella
A container of hot red pepper flakes
Warheads
Six Candly Necklaces
A Jumbo Push Pop
Rice Krispie Treats
Macadamia Nuts
Cottonelle Fresh Wipes
A Toothbrush and Floss
A mini bottle of exfoliator
Propel drink mixes

His family is sending letters and pictures for me to print up for the box too. And I'm going to print up some funny comics, etc.

How does this sound for a Fast Attack Sub Half Way Box?

Oh, I want to make some custom crosswords and word searches too for special days that he's missing.

Thank you for reminding me about cough drops! He mentioned that a few weeks ago, and I forgot.

I need to see if I can fit sunflower seeds, and Q-Tips. :thinking
