As Fall Finals collide with the holidays Beyond Bookmarks College Care Packages provide stress relief for students and their parents.
Ashland City, TN (PRWEB) November 11, 2005 -- As Thanksgiving grows closer, college students across the country are beginning to feel the angst of final exams. The real cramming begins just as the turkey euphoria wears off...then it’s two solid weeks of intense study in hopes of the coveted 'A.'
Parents are feeling a different kind of angst. “How will I get it all done?” They want to support their student, but there’s no time to bake cookies or put together a package on top of work, holiday shopping, preparing for guests, and more.
Beyond Bookmarks has created the exam survival care package, Exam Cram, to help relieve this pressure for students and their parents. Parents can order online when it fits their schedule...day or night, in advance or at the last minute. Exam Cram (http://www.beyondbookmarks.com/main.aspx?catid=2) includes a personal message from home and is designed with students in mind so parents can be sure their son or daughter is getting a motivating care package he or she will appreciate and devour.
Care packages from Beyond Bookmarks motivate students and encourage relaxation, promoting a healthy way to manage stress. “There’s no way to eliminate stress for your student during exams, but you can help them learn to balance it with healthy snacks and a dose of good humor,” says Wendy Garcia, University Outreach Director for Beyond Bookmarks and former Assistant Dean of Students at The University of New Mexico. “Stress toys encourage students to take mini-breaks in their studying...much needed rest for the brain. This is not the time to send the ‘how to get better grades than Einstein’ books. Instead give them something that acknowledges the stress they are under.”
Exam Cram combines caffeine and sugary treats with healthy snacks and Vitamin C to sustain students through cramming and all-nighters. Plus, Exam Cram includes stress relieving toys and study tools with a fun twist. A pencil set encourages students with messages like “relax” or “get to the point” while a fold out poster card inspires with the quotation “Go confidently in the direction of your dreams! Live the life you’ve imagined.”
Parents love ordering from Beyond Bookmarks. “My 18 year old college freshman received so many items in this care package he hasn't been able to use or eat them all yet! He especially loved the combination of fun stress busters and healthy snacks. I would definitely recommend this site to others,” writes a Shopping.com reviewer. Another parent writes “Quality products, mostly natural and ‘good for you,’ a nice change from the ‘junk food’ baskets that everyone else sells.”
Shoppers can order College Packs online (http://www.beyondbookmarks.com ) or over the phone (866-746-5133), in advance or at the last minute. Beyond Bookmarks offers a variety of shipping options so parents don’t have to cram for their kid’s exams.
