A Care Package for a Law Student

Law school is hectic for students who spend their days and nights reading case studies of obscure legal cases and memorizing legal terms. Care packages are a way to give the law student some useful items and to show that you support their choices.

Digital Book Reader

• Law students are required to read hundreds of books during their three years of matriculation; many of these books are available for digital download. Though a little pricey, digital book readers--like Amazon's Kindle or Apple's iPad--will allow the student to access his or her required reading on airplanes, at home or in class without having to lug around 40 pounds of books.

Brain Food

• Because of the amount of time they spend in libraries and bookstores, law students spend more time snacking than sitting down to full meals. If you're preparing a care package for a law student, put in healthy, delicious snack foods like granola bars, fruit snacks and dried fruit.

Relaxation Help

• Law school can cause a lot of stress for students. Giving items like bath salts, lavender mist, calming lotions and spa slippers will help the student relax at home in between his or her assignments and tests.
