Sending your child off to school is a traumatic experience for most parents. As excited as they are for the kids, there are always mixed feelings and a lot of anxiety. Setting kids up in their new rooms is just one of the projects on a long list of things to be done. For friends and loved ones wanting to help out, putting together thoughtful gift baskets for college students Flagstaff parents will appreciate makes a lot of sense.
Snacks and treats are always a crowd pleaser, but they are quickly gobbled up without adding any nutrition to your kid's college diet. A better choice might be some microwave cookware, one serving meal packages, and a stainless steel water bottle. They sell big ceramic mugs that come with vented lids that will let kids warm a full meal package at one time.
Water bottles are good choices for care packages. You can get them big enough to hold enough coffee or flavored water to last through a morning of classes or an afternoon in the study lounge. They may even be the encouragement your youngster needs to get the coffee pot going instead of spending five dollars on a calorie laden latte. The packaged meals are good for kids to have late at night or when they don't feel like walking to the cafeteria.
You can fill a practical care package with things like socks, laundry pods, and a phone charger with a long cord. Socks are a great idea and not something that everybody thinks about. Socks are one of those things that always seem to be in need. Sending extra pairs in a variety of colors will be appreciated.
Detergent and other cleaning supplies can get expensive when you are on a tight budget. Pods are easy to store and will be used. You can also throw in some disinfecting wipes for grimy desktops and cabinets. An extra long cord on a charger will be helpful in rooms that don't have outlets on every wall. With the extra length, kids can have their phones right by them wherever they are in their rooms.
Students will love care packages filled with toys, holiday decorations, and diffusers with packages of scented oils. Kids need some down time. They can't study all day and night. A package filled with toys like a mini-basketball and hoop that can be attached to a wall are great relaxers. You can add Frisbees, slinkies, paddle and balls, or anything else that won't destroy the room or break the rules.
Kids love decorating their rooms and will appreciate some simple holiday decorations to make those rooms more like home. You can send garlands, candy canes, and strings of lights. You should find out what the house policy is on any electric lights however. Diffusers will help remove unwanted odors in stuffy rooms.
Kids look forward to care packages when they're away at school. It doesn't really matter what's in them. Opening the package and checking out the contents will remind them you are not so far away.
