Cruise-related stocking stuffer ideas? (young adults)

So the cruise we are taking over New Years with our children (18-23) is their Xmas present. 

But we still do stockings so I would like to do do some stocking stuffers they could use on the cruise.

I have gotten a card game (Dutch blitz) & a dice game (tenszi), so that covers 2/3 kids. I'd like another card game. We have Cards Against Humanity already. 

Other ideas?

THANKS!

(figured others might like ideas, too!)

Phase 10 is always a good option!

Not "game related," but maybe some nice luggage straps/tags/locks. I love my heavy duty magnet hooks to hang things in the cabin. For the females, a "fashion emergency kit." Mine has fashion tape, Downy wrinkle release, Tide stain stick, sewing kit, safety pins, Velcro tabs and Woolite.

Not game related but some inexpensive ideas are 

 

highlighters of different colors so they can mark the cruise planner of things that interest them

Lanyards

Cruise Luggage Tags (these are different from regular luggage tags)

Waterproof phone case

Magnetic Clips to store things on the walls

Matching family shirts to wear the first day

HAHAHAHAHA--I CANNOT see my family doing this! (I just shared this with DH & his response was "That ain't happenin'...")

Certificate for a drink, casino cash, iTunes GC, snorkel set, towel clips in fun shapes, cute cosmetic bags, headphones, and snacks for the plane

Drink packages for all (well, coffee card for DD)...If I get them snacks on Xmas I suspect they will be GONE by Friday!!!

Love the casino credit idea...

I'm doing something similar for my parents for our upcoming cruise this spring. I recommend this really cool backpack that folds up so small you can put it in your pocket, but it expands to a full size backpack. Great for excursions.

Last Christmas we took our family on the Anthem, and I gave everyone a nautical gift bag containing chapstick, germ gel, Boca clips, lanyards, luggage tags, little fans that connect to a cell phone, foil packets of sun screen, candy, battery-operated tea lights (nice as a nightlight or for use on the balcony table), plus a note telling them they each had OBC.

Fluxx is a great card game.

 

There are lots of iterations of the game ie: zombies, Dr. Who, Monty Python, Space.  Easiest to start with the original deck.  Learn to play in 3 minutes, master the game in 5.  Game play starts with "Draw 1 card, Play 1 card" and the rules can change at any time - or as we say when playing "All hell breaks loose!"

Can you recommend some magnet hooks? Never thought of that.  


These are TINY and hold ANYthing you may want to hang!

I like to put them on the ceiling near the air vent... put a shirt or swimsuit on a hanger and it dries well, even in the humid Caribbean air!
