[MR] Katrina Relief: Care Package Items

[Julia Windsor]

Greetings all,

You might want to consider a trip to the local dollar
store. I know that serveral items on this list can be
aquired in bulk packs at a variety of $ stores. 

One thing I would like to note, while coloring books
and crayons are fun, they are multipart items and as
such tend to get lost easier. There is a group here
that is collecting toys and they have recommended
donating picture books and small, single-piece
imaginative toys instead of coloring books and
crayons.

Just my tuppence worth,
Julia
