As the mother of three children who have gone to college, I’ve sent many care packages to college students over the years. I enjoy creating and sending creative care packages and am known for sending them to my nieces, nephews and friends’ children.

As a veteran, I’ve received and sent many care packages to service members in all types of situations.

As a result of all this experience, I’ve shared many of my favorite care package ideas for holidays, color-themed, seasonal ideas, special occasions and all my very best home care package ideas. Now I’m adding these free printable care package notes as a great idea to make your happy box care package even more special.

Frequently Asked Questions about Care Packages

What do you put in a college care package?

If you’re not a baker, these are truly delicious cookies that are a great option (and that I eat (almost) every day!).

Keep in mind that most dorm rooms are very small without space for large items or lots of items. It’s best to choose:

• Expendable gift ideas, like food or personal care items
• Little things that don’t take up much space in small spaces
• Thoughtful gifts that can be shared and are a wonderful way to build friendships (and good relationships with roommates)
• Needed items, rather than random items
  • School supplies, like pens and sticky notes
  • Water bottle
  • Gloves, scarf, hat
• Gift certificates or gift cards
