Your Child Got Into College! Gift Ideas For You
by Maas Roelvink
When you have a child who is a senior in high school, you know it can be a stressful yet exciting time in their life as well as in yours. The process of applying to college and the wait for the notifications of acceptance or rejection can be daunting and scary. However, once your child gets into college and commits to a school, you can relax and celebrate their achievement. And what better way to celebrate their achievements than gifts that show them how proud you are of them? Get to know a few gift ideas that you can try for your child that show your support of their achievements.
College Team Gear
Your child has committed to the school they plan to attend in the fall. As such, they are going to need some team gear to show their school spirit and to help them show off their choice and accomplishment.
College team hats are a great place to start. These hats come in all styles and varieties. However, the most popular are the normal cap style or stocking hats. Be sure that the college name and/or team name and logo are prominent in the design and that the school colors are represented.
Other college team gear can include anything from t-shirts and sweatshirts to pants, socks, lanyards, and virtually anything else your child could ever want or need to wear. If you get your child a wide variety of clothing and accessories with their school and team logos, they will be all set for the start of the college academic career. And come their first game day in their new school, they will fit right in.
A Spa Day
In the more immediate sense, getting into college and making the commitment to one school is a huge weight off of your child's shoulders. Reward them for this achievement with the gift of some good old rest and relaxation.
A spa day full of massages, body wraps, acupressure, and other luxurious treatments will help them to give themselves a much needed break and revel in the fact that they achieved something major in their lives. They will also know that you value and recognize their hard work. It is a win-win situation. And, if you gave them comfortable college team lounge clothes, they can wear them on their day at the spa as a reminder of why they are there in the first place.
With these ideas in mind, you can get to shopping for your soon-to-be college student and show them just how proud you are of them.

About Me
After burning through several pairs of cheap earrings, I decided one day that it might be in my best interest to look into buying some better pieces. Instead of visiting little accessory shops, I started saving my money and frequenting high-end jewelry stores. I quickly realized that by investing more money into jewelry, the items would last significantly longer and look a lot better when I wore them. It was amazing to see how much better I looked with the better items. This blog is all about investing in better accessories so that you can take better pictures or enjoy a renewed sense of self.
