Dorms are a quintessential part of the college experience, but the limited privacy and unfamiliar atmosphere add to the stress of college life. Luckily, your care packages can help your student create a cool, personalized hideaway to call home.
Fill a care package with over-ear headphones to drown out a noisy dorm for studying or winding down, but include speakers for turning up the music when it's time to hang out. Throw in some snacks to keep your college all-star fueled, choosing both salty and sweet treats. Remember that college is when students start valuing an organized work space, so include desk organizers and cleaners to keep the dorm room workstation spotless.
Dorms tend to blur the line between "yours" and "mine," so go for pre-made labels or label makers to help students claim their territory. When stress hits, students need options to get them back in gear, which can include stress balls and adult coloring books. The hand-picked products from Office Depot have everything your student needs to dominate the dorms this semester.
