Thoughty Care Kits Make It Easy to Send Love That Feels Close, Even From Miles Away
The moment you drop them off—whether it’s their first semester or their last—you start thinking about how to stay connected. You hope they’re eating something besides chips, getting some sleep, and maybe even doing their laundry. And while texts and quick calls help, sometimes you want to send something more.
That’s where care packages come in. But not just any care package.
Forget the box of random snacks and a note scribbled on notebook paper. At Thoughty, we’ve reimagined the traditional care package to make it simple to send something that’s both meaningful and genuinely useful.
Thoughty Kits are carefully curated gift boxes filled with gourmet treats, quality supplies, and a whole lot of charm. Here’s why they’re the kind of care packages your college kid will actually be excited to open:
1. All the Love, None of the Logistics
Let’s face it—putting together a thoughtful care package from scratch is time-consuming. Sourcing the right snacks, finding a box, writing a note, waiting in line at the post office—it’s a project.
Thoughty Kits take the pressure off. You choose the vibe (encouragement, celebration, exam survival, or just a reminder that someone’s thinking of them), and we handle the rest—beautifully packaged, lovingly curated, and shipped straight to campus.
2. They’re Packed With Goodies Students Genuinely Want
We’re not talking about vending machine leftovers. Thoughty Care Kits feature thoughtfully selected snacks that hit all the right notes—sweet, salty, savory, and maybe even a little spicy. Think gourmet candy, small-batch popcorn, and artisan granola bars.
We also include little comforts: a super-soft blanket for power naps, cozy socks for cold dorm floors, or the perfect insulated tumbler to help them stay hydrated. A+ encouragement with a side of snacks.
3. They’re Designed With Style (and Instagram) in Mind
Unboxing is half the fun. Bright colors, thoughtful details, and that signature bow—every kit feels like a little celebration.
We even tuck in a card inviting them to tag us at @thoughtygifts, because yes, your kid might just want to show it off.
4. They Meet the Moment
Our collection includes gifts that work for every occasion—from midterms to move-in, from birthdays to breakups. Here are a few favorites:
- Exam Cram Kit – Packed with smart snacks and study tools, this one’s built for long nights and early tests.
- The Feel-Better Box – For when sickness (or homesickness) hits and they just need a boost.
- Birthday Celebration Kit – A cheerful, festive gift that is truly a celebration in a box.
-
Get it Done Kit – The perfect mix of pep, productivity, and pick-me-ups for late nights, big deadlines, and those days when they just need to power through.
5. They Say Exactly What You Mean
Whether you’re celebrating a win or sending a little encouragement after a hard week, your message—and our kit—will hit just the right tone. Each gift includes a handwritten note with your message, so they’ll feel your support even if you're miles away.
Gifting That Feels Good (For Everyone)
Thoughty Kits aren’t just designed for smiles at the other end of the mailbox. We source many of our products from local and small-batch makers—supporting entrepreneurs and artisans.
So your gift gives back in more ways than one.
