best gift ideas for 4 year old boys image

So in my school district, the 6th graders go to a camp for 4 days and a few high schoolers are the counselors. I am one of the counselors and have a group of 14 11-year-old boys between myself and another counselor. I'm having problems thinking of ideas of things to do. Most cabins have some sort of small gift that the counselors give the students, but I can't think of anything to give them. What is something that I could give them that would satisfy this?

Answer
Get them each a compass and have one day where you practice orienteering. You could then incorporate that into a treasure hunt with teams having to follow directions to the treasure.

Have fun!

I think that toys they can build with are great. I would look at Lego's and lincoln logs, tinker toys and things like...Look at the age range (ex 3+) and go with something that he can use now... but grow into as well. For example: I wouldn't get the biggest Lego's(duplos or quatros)... but the smallest recommended for that age group. That way he can continue to use them for some time.

I have a 4 year old girl and she really enjoys the new version of the Erector sets. The box says 5 and up... but I think that is mainly due to the difficulty of the instructions and not safely (the safety limit is 3 and up). She may not be able to follow the directions to build the toys shown on the box... but she can use her imagination and make her own cool things.
