Getting to spend quality time with your loved one has been harder than ever — but there are ways to let them know you care. Sending seniors a care package through the mail is a great way to shower them with their favorite things while you are away. If you are unsure where to start when it comes to packing your care package we are here to help. 

5 senior care package ideas:

  1. The holiday package
  2. The new clothes package
  3. The favorite snacks package
  4. The personal touch package
  5. The activity package

The holiday package 

Depending on the time of year you may be able to send your loved one a package full of their favorite holiday items. Whether they need new holiday decor for their room, a cd full of Christmas songs, Halloween candy, empty Easter eggs, or fall leaves — they would be excited to receive new items to celebrate their favorite time of year. 

The new clothes package

Who doesn’t like to receive new clothes? Sending new seasonal items to your loved one is a great way to lift their spirits! Stopping by your local retailer and picking up some items that remind you of your loved one is a great thing to do. Clothing items you may consider: their favorite sports team, school spirit wear, holiday clothing items, or new shoes. 

Their favorite snacks package

Everyone loves a good snack now and again! Sending snacks is a great way to satisfy their sweet tooth and give them new and exciting foods to eat that they are unable to get where they live. 

The personal touch package

You don’t always have to spend a lot of money to be thoughtful. Send your loved on a framed picture or pictures from your child’s sporting event, handwritten letters or cards, a drawing or piece of artwork — anything that is homemade will be special while you can’t spend time face-to-face. 

The activity package

Things to keep your loved one busy is always a great thing to send. Items like a crossword puzzle, coloring books, crayons, books, items for knitting are all great things to put in this package. You know what your loved one likes best — so pack it full of things that will make their heart smile.
