It’s that time of year when school graduations are in full swing. I keep getting graduation announcements and I love it. The hard thing is to know what to get these graduates. Here are a few ideas that vary in amounts. So if you have a little more money to spend, then choose one of those. But if you’re on a budget then choose a more affordable option.
- Money. This is something that every student would love to have. You could be creative and get a lot of dollar bits, roll them up and make a flower bouquet out of money. There are a lot of fun ways to give money here.
- Survival Kit for College. If your graduate is planning to go to college, then make a cute survival kit for college. This could me in a cute container filled with things like: pencils, paper, gift cards to fast food restaurants, hand sanitizer, cash, markers, Chapstick, lint roller, scissors, ear plugs, sleep mask, band aids and cup of noodles. You can find them all here.
- Gift Cards. If you know your graduates favorite place to eat then get a gift card there. If you don’t then check out the college town on google maps and see what fast food lactations are there. Grab a few gift cards they could use for meals.
- Books. You could give your graduate a book like “Oh, the Places You’ll Go!” By Dr. Seuss. Be sure to leave a hand written note in the inside of the cover. There are a lot of these fun books here.
- Hand written note. If money is tight, then this is the perfect option for a graduation gift. Graduating is a BIG achievement. They put in a lot of work and it’s a great time to acknowledge that. Write them a note from your heart. It’s something that can mean the world to these graduates.
- Customized key chain. Most graduates are driving. So why not grab a customized key chain they could bring with them. It could be a funny one to make them laugh or a more sentimental one to help them through their next stage of life. You can find some cute ones here.
- Car wash gift card. Speaking of cars and graduates. I know a few that have saved up their money to buy a car. That car means a lot to them. Why not grab a gift card to a local car wash place. This may sound funny, but I know a lot of them would LOVE this.
