Make the Halloween care package spooky by adding all sorts of funny Halloween puns, their favorite candies, and some good Halloween decorations. Covering it all up with a “Open At Your Risk” or a Caution tape would take the box to the next level!

Sending in scented candles can be quite tricky especially since most dorms do not allow you to light up anything.
Luckily, living in dorms has allowed me to find the perfect solution to making it smell good even without the candles!
And it’s all because of an essential oil diffuser! If your college student does not already have one, I highly recommend packing it in the care package. They would love the smell of these essential oils and their room will be the best smelling dorm in the hall for the season!!
