If they love relaxing in their apartment or dorm room, board games are great to challenge their minds while having a fun time! Here are some fun games your student will love!

Mugs

If your student is like everyone else, then coffee is a must during the school year!

With mugs you can create to add a personal touch, gifts like this will become the favorite! You could go to their favorite place that sells mugs and grab one with a cute saying on it or make one online using Vistaprint! This will need to be ordered a little beforehand because they do get a lot of personal orders during the holidays!
