For the parents with young kids that will be in the clubs, I know the exception rather than the norm on the PC cruises, I have been captivated by a great thread from an existing Youth Counselor:
Current Youth Activities Counselor
One of the things I will definitely do is bring some of the latest magazines from land and drop them off on board for the CMs to enjoy. They said they love getting all of the latest gossip, fashion, etc magazines since they are gone to sea for so long. They also enjoy books and share them with each other.
Our boys have loved the counselors, so a little pixie dust is the least we can do to bring a smile to their faces! They never expect it, but greatly appreciate it.
I will also bring some extra candy from the exchange to share with them.
