It’s been about a month since we did the big drop-off for our oldest at college. As far as we can tell, he’s been living his best life. It’s hard to be sad when your kiddos are thriving. Even if he could stand to go to bed a little earlier, I guess that’s for them to figure out. #momsohard. Of course, despite our best-laid plans and all the lists, along with checking them twice, we’ve inevitably forgotten something. Or we may simply want to add some handy elements here and there. We’ve already shipped a few things his way to ensure he has what he needs, from Wii remotes for himself and his roomies to hooks over his closet door. Bed Bath and Beyond is an excellent source before the big move-in day, but did you know they’re also great for after the big day? So, beyond the typical lists, we did a little round-up of our favorite care package ideas for college students! This list holds big and small items alongside practical and comfort-level goodies for the upcoming fall months. Here are a few great finds: Our Favorite Care Package Ideas for College Students!
But first, in case you were curious, we shared the tour here of his first apartment/dorm, which was one for the memory books.
In our prepping phase, we planned for everything, along with sharing inspiration for three different dorm spaces and more fun essentials! Bed Bath and Beyond is such a great resource, no matter the level of planning you’re in.
So today, we thought we’d round up some great ideas for those care packages! Because we just know someone forgot the kitchen scissors…. and care packages can be full of cute things to zhuzh up their spaces, too. We chose a little practical and a little fun—just a well-rounded spectrum of what someone might need!
