If the person you have in mind is adventurous, an adventure-themed package is a good option. Anything that suits their lifestyle would be fun to include. Consider including a backpack for hiking, an atlas, or a compass.
You could also consider including something for them to store trip memorabilia. Some other options for this thoughtful package are trail mix, hiking socks, and binoculars. You could also consider a camping blanket, sunscreen, hand sanitizer, a flashlight, and bug spray.
12. Favorite Treats and Snacks
Think about all of the snacks your important person likes. Put together a gift that includes all of their favorite treats and snacks. Beef jerky and snack mix are good options for this.
Nothing will make your person happier than a package of their favorite things. Plus, when they realize that you know them so well that you remember their favorites, they’ll see how much they matter to you.
Even better, before you put the package together, casually ask your person what their favorite snack is right then. That way, you can include the thing they’ve been craving.
13. Wine Package
If the person you are thinking of loves wine, this is the perfect care package for them. Include their favorite wine plus a few new ones to try that are similar to what they usually like. You can’t forget the snacks to go with the wine in this gift package, either.
If you can, putting this gift package inside of a wine crate would be cute and practical. Another fun idea is to put the items on a platter with raised edges to later use for serving snacks.
Some of the things that you can put in the package include:
- corkscrew
- wine bottle stopper
- small cutting board
- cheese knife
- coasters
- wine glasses
- dark chocolate
- a candle
- crackers
14. Cocktail Kit
Cocktails are fun, and they give someone a reason to relax and let loose. Putting together a cocktail kit involves thinking of happy hour at home. Include garnishes, mixers, and even the bar tools to make it feel like a true experience.
Don’t forget to include any of the ingredients they will need. If you can, put the alcohol in your package, too. However, if you are shipping it, alcohol might not be an option.
15. A Homemade Video or PowerPoint
Putting together a thoughtful video or PowerPoint of your relationship is incredibly meaningful. Include any photos or videos you have of this person, and creatively edit them. This gift will put a smile on their face, and they are sure to realize that you care about them.
You can save the video or PowerPoint to a flash drive to send to your person. Including a note will make it even more meaningful to both of you. If you can’t get ahold of a flash drive, sending it as an email file should work, but it isn’t unexpected.
16. Chef or Kitchen Package
If the person in your life enjoys cooking, putting together a fun and thoughtful kitchen or chef package is perfect. You can include kitchen utensils and dishes or a recipe or two. If the person likes to write out their recipes, then recipe cards would make a fun addition.
You could also include a meal planning notepad or a cookbook. To finish off this perfect package, place it all inside of a reusable tote that fits the theme.
17. Athlete Packages
If the person on your mind enjoys working out and exercising, consider things they could use for that. When they know that you support their active lifestyle, they will know that you care about them. Plus, the thoughtful gift will help get the point across.
Instead of using a gift bag or regular box for this package, use a gym bag to hold the items. If they don’t need another gym bag, consider a cooler or another container that they can use.
Inside of the package, include things like a gym towel, light dumbbells, or protein powder. You can also put in a workout tracker, gym socks, or a nice water bottle. For runners, you can consider a phone holder or glasses band.
18. Themed Survival Kit
If the receiver of your package is going through a hard time, put together a survival package for them. If the person is stressed out or overwhelmed, put together something to help them relax. When they are sad, make the basket something that will boost their spirits and make them laugh.
For a summer survival kit, consider things like sunglasses, a hat, sunscreen, and a cup for cold drinks. If they have a deadline approaching, include things that will give them energy and motivation. Whatever your person is going through, try to create a survival kit based on their situation.
19. Writing Package
If the person on your mind enjoys writing, put together a package that includes things they would use. Include a poetry book, a journal, and a box of tea. This package will make them happy because it’ll be warm, thoughtful, and chosen by you.
20. Boredom Care Packages
If you know your person will be in a boring situation, prepare a boredom survival care package. This gift package could include board games, a deck of cards, puzzles, and crosswords.
You can also include coloring books in the package. With coloring books, you can’t forget colored pencils, pens, or markers, though. If you want to go overboard on this package, throw in some yummy snacks to go along with the activities.
If you are looking for a way to tell someone you care, put together a thoughtful care package. These ideas will help you get your point across, and they will be happy to receive such meaningful gifts.
Use these ideas to help you get started on putting together your care package. Adapt them to fit the desires and interests of the person on your mind.
