Kids heading off to college? You simply must check out the College Essentials from Babbleboxx, we found so many great items that our student loved!
Cue the sad music, my daughter heads back to college next week…yes next week! She’s beginning her third year and loves her school, but mom is struggling yet again with the distance. Her university is nearly 10 hours from home, no less in a remote location of northern Michigan. An area that gets pounded by Mother Nature beginning in October and lasting until nearly May. Her university has the distinction of being the “snowiest” university in the USA! Yes, beating out Alaska of all places.
With the distance being so great there aren’t many trips home for her or likewise us traveling to visit her. That’s why I’m sharing a few items that I recently received via Babbleboxx. Items which are wonderful for college students, let me breakdown what we received.
Viv & Lou: Throw Blanket
There’s nothing like the comfort of a plush throw, especially when you are far from home and in a frigid climate. This throw is absolutely perfect for curling up under and reading a book in your dorm room. 100% polyester (easy laundering), monogram or personalization is free upon ordering. Personalized gifts are great for college students, dorm items can often get left in other areas of school.

Casio A168WG-9VT Vintage Watch
They all things vintage come back in style again, right? Take the Casio Vintage Collection…timeless, classic style that’s back in style for today. My daughter and her friend went nuts over this watch. With a 1/100th second stopwatch, water resistance, alarm and EL backlight this watch…fashion and function have collided in one great watch.
Available at Macy’s and ShopCasio
EZneeds
EZneeds is one stop shopping to stock up easily! Yes, I shopped online for products that get delivered right to my daughter. She has NO time to shop at school between being a full-time student and running her own business. Plus she’s in an area with very few stores. Ezneeds helped me fix that situation. NO membership is required, I easily found brand name items that she uses (as do her roommates)! Spend $50 and shipping is FREE, arriving within 1-3 days. EZneeds = everyday needs delivered!

So with that, my daughter is prepped and ready for another year of higher education. When mom can find items that make her life a little easier and comfortable that’s a MOM WIN in my book.
This would be like getting a care package from home without all the work on my part. Love this idea and what comes in the box.
That throw is so colorful and looks comfy! This really is a great box of college essentials. Hope your daughter has an awesome 3rd year of college!
This sounds like a great box! I remember always liking when I got food in college. And that’s a cool looking watch too.
I love boxes that you open with no clue what’s in them! One of the reasons I can’t wait for my son to go off to college. I’m going to be THAT mom that they can’t wait for the monthly box to come! lol.
I would love something like this when I was in college. I do know a lot of people that are going to college this year so I may have to send them a box like this. I know they would love it.
My daughter started college this year, but we live close enough to the state college that she can live at home. She would love this box full of goodies.
What a convenient gift for your daughter given that she’s not close to any major stores and this box is full of essentials and fun stuff that any college student would surely appreciate. Love the blanket and thanks for sharing the coupon for the sore throat drops
Babblebox seems to have some really lovely {plus tasty} items that would make a transition to college life much more sweeter
I don’t even want to think about my son heading off to college in a few years. I’m sure I’m going to be sending so many care packages that he’s going to feel like I went to college with him!
Distance is tough. Yay for care packages like this! Where were all these products when I went to university lol!
All my three children enrolled in a university about half an hour’s drive from home, so they did not have to stay in a dorm. I would be worried sick if any of them had to stay that far away from me! Well, I am happy that your daughter will be in her junior year in college. Soon, you will be reaping the fruits of your labor. It shows in your care package how well you take care of her.
My kids are still very young but I know it’s just a matter of time before theyll be heading off to college. This box sounds like a wonderful collection of college essentials.
This is a great package. The throw blanket looks so soft and comfortable… and of course snacks are great!!
Dang,that is a lot of really useful stuff! I am interested in the AZ burgers.
Wow, I would have loved to get a box like this in college! I will totally hook up my daughter with this when she goes in two years!
This looks like the absolute perfect gift to give to my sister. She is a sophomore this year at Loyola University.
how fun! I needed one of these boxes in college. that blanket looks so cozy!
