Not only is it the holiday season, but it’s also exam week for a lot of high school and college students across the country! These teens and 20 somethings are dealing with the stress and pressure of studying for their exams and working on 10+ page papers during this festive season!
I’ve got just the thing to combat the study pressure! Surprise your student with an “Exam Survival Kit”! It’s easy to throw together in no time and will give your teen the extra energy they need to make it across the finish line! They still will have to study but this Survival Kit will make it a bit more fun! And isn’t that what this time of year is all about?
Here’s How To Create your Ultimate Exam Survival Kit:
- Find a basket, box or bucket to hold the treats. I re-use the same basket each year. I’ve also been known to use empty Costco or Amazon boxes. Do not, I repeat, do not spend money on this. They are teens and they couldn’t care less about the outside of the basket. They will be looking at the treats inside of it!
- Fill the basket or box with some of their favorite treats. I do a combo of junk food and healthy treats. Think Cheez It’s or Sour Cream and Onion potato chips with a mango, raspberries or other delicious fruits. I’ve even put in a giant cucumber as one of my kids is crazy about cucumbers! In addition to salty snacks and fruit, fill in with their fav candy and a few drinks. An individual bottle of Cranberry juice, Starbucks Frappuccino Coffee Drink, Celsius Energy Drink, are some of the favorites around here! Once you have your basket filled with goodies, you’re ready to make your sign.
- Make a Sign & Adhere to the front of the basket. You can hand write or print a sign that simply says “Final Exam Survival Kit”. That’s it! You’re done!
Now go put that basket full of love on their desk or study space and surprise them when they get home! I guarantee your teen will feel loved!
