16 Of The Most Hilarious Letters Kids Sent Their Parents From Summer Camp

Summer camp is a time to make friends, play in the sun, and eat lots of candy that your parents send you.

As fun as it is, though, there are a number of rules at camp (having hundreds of kids running around without them would be a recipe for disaster). One that many parents cherish is when campers are required to write home to Mom and Dad. More often than not, the letters are pretty standard, “I’m having a fun time and meeting lots of cool people,” but then there are these kids…

From details about their morning trip to the toilet to pleas for help, these kids are pretty hilarious.
