Idea. My kind of parenting - it combines clever parenting with a sense of humor, and subtly instills some important values, too.
Every year a friend of mine, Rhonda Salerno, sends her kids a letter, with a little prank / tease inside it, during summer camp. Something which helps ensure they'll be EXTRA grateful when they get home. Check out this year's letter.

I hope you are having so much fan at camp hanging out with all your old friends, and meeting new ones too! It is quite boring here at home since it's just the three of us.
When you get home it will be time for school shopping - can you believe it?? I know you are excited to catch up with your friends!
I'm so happy to report nobody has died since you've been at camp - pets or people; that's a first, right?
BUT, Koby and Roscoe somehow got into the medicine cabinet. Who knew dogs could crawl on each other's shoulders and open cabinets? Roscoe must have learned that at dog training! They got into those chocolate-covered laxatives and they must have tasted really good because they ate the entire box. I'm sorry to say that when the diarrhoea hit them, they were in your room... I've never seen so much poop in all my life! We're going to let it dry for a week, hoping it will be easier to clean up. Maybe we'll get it clean by the time you come home on Saturday, but I'm sure the smell will last forever. Sorry.
ANYWAY, have a great time at camp - we miss you very much!!!!
Love,
Mom.
Priceless.
