JABBERS, we want to hear from you! If your child has been to sleepaway camp, what is one thing you always packed in his or her trunk (aside from basic clothes and toiletries)? Whether it's a memento to make them think of home, special stationery, medical supplies, a warm blanket or even a secret stash of Mad Libs - we want to know what you packed and why it's so important to your child. Email us HERE. Happy JABBING!
