Holiday Shopping for College-Bound Teens and Students:

I recommend waiting until your student has committed to a college before buying most of their dorm needs so you know exactly what the school allows and recommends. However, a few items are universally needed, no matter which college, dorm, or apartment your student ends up in. Here are a few of those items:

Dorms are notoriously dusty, moldy, and full of germs. A good air purifier is a great investment to help your student stay healthy at college.

Speaking of dirty, keep your kid’s feet clean with a pair of shower shoes.

It seems that no college student can survive these days without carrying their Stanley filled with their favorite beverage.

And, to keep their devices charged on the go, don’t forget a portable charger.

This “gift” is for the parents and guardians…

When our kids turn 18, we lose the ability to legally help them in emergency situations unless the proper paperwork is in place. That is why I recommend Mama Bear Legal Forms Young Adult Power of Attorney. Be sure to read my recent article on why I’m so thankful that we have a Young Adult POA in place.

With the Power of Attorney documents, you can:

+ Make health care decisions if your student is incapacitated

+ Avoid court-appointed guardians

+ Gain access to medical records in case of an emergency

+ Interact with landlords and insurance companies

You can use my discount code, ScholarshipCoach,  to take 20% off the total price at Mama Bear Legal Forms.
