Easter Care Package For College Students
Whether your college student will be home for Easter or not, they will certainly be Hoppy to receive an Easter Care Package made especially for them!
One way for me to cope with having a child away at college is to create and send care packages! It allows me to do something special for her and, I’m thinking she appreciates the effort too!
For Easter, I decided to create an Easter Egg Hunt In A Box! I’ve always enjoyed creating Easter Egg Hunts for the kids, and just because she’s away at college doesn’t mean she shouldn’t open a few eggs!

What To Put In An Easter Care Package
We chose to create an Easter Egg Hunt In A Box! We also added some festive springtime items!
- Beach Ball – Encourage your college student to get outside on these nice Spring days!
- Bunny Glasses – We had these left in our Easter Storage Box from last year, but you may be able to find them at the Dollar Tree!
- Peeps
- Goldfish Spring Colors
- Dubble Bubble Eggs
- Jelly Belly Spring Mix
- Plastic Eggs – I picked up the shiny ones from the Dollar Tree, but, I gotta say, they were kind of hard to open. I may have even cracked a few trying to get them open.
- Candy – We chose candy that we know our daughter likes and will eat!
- Microwave Popcorn – To attach the Just Poppin’ By To Wish You A Hoppin’ Easter card.
- Easter Grass – I like to use the shredded crinkle paper from the Dollar Tree! It is found in the gift bag section.
