If anyone in your family or group of friends is in the midst of
cramming for final exams, why not send a care package loaded with
treats and small, thoughtful gifts? It will definitely brighten their
day! Here are some ideas beyond the traditional granola bars, microwave
popcorn, and candy to get you started:
- To help students stay awake: fairly traded, shade grown, organic coffee, tea, or chocolate
- To de-stress: bubbles, stress balls
- To stay healthy: Emergen-C
- To stay sharp: a Rubik's Cube
- To focus: ear plugs
- To study: highlighters, color coded Post-it flags, index cards, and a book clip
- For good luck: custom fortune cookies
Throw in something specific to the student. For undergrads, maybe a roll of quarters for laundry. Med students might appreciate this plush heart. Law students might like a dvd of one of the greatest legal movies of all time.
Be creative!

Great ideas! Make your college kids happy, and let them know how proud of them you are. They will be more productive if they know they are making you proud. Thanks for posting!
