This was my PERFECT solution to dress up my packages when I sent them out.  I wrap up my new book, DINO MANNERS&nbsp;<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/Dino-Manners-Some-Prehistoric-Lessons-Featuring-Our-Friends-from-the-Cretaceous-Period/dp/0578042258/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">Dino Manners: Some Prehistoric Lessons Featuring Our Friends from the Cretaceous Period</a>&nbsp;in news print - Green, but BORING and put them into stiff envelopes to protect them - also boring.  I love the Melissa and Doug products so knew this would be good ink. The colors are great to grab attention.

I also bought some dinosaur rubber stamps with cute faces.  They only came with a green ink pad.  I wanted to stamp the outside of the newsprint and the envelopes so that when the book arrived the recipient would know it was something fun and special.  Many are sent as gifts so it really set the tone for a wonderful surprise.

My children can easily use this pad without making a huge mess. They are 5 and 8.  Do you send packages regularly?  Pick up a couple of themed rubber stamps, this ink pad set and dress them up!  Great way to let your children make inexpensive recycled wrapping paper.  Newsprint in bulk is really cheap.
