33% of Americans go to college, studying not just for big qualifications like a degree, but also to take a variety of courses that will enhance their learning. When your teenage child goes to college, it is a big milestone in their lives. They are educating themselves for their future and growing in maturity. It is a lovely idea to give your child a special gift when they go to college - something meaningful that shows how much you respect and appreciate the journey that they are taking.
An engraved bracelet
A silver or gold bracelet engraved with a quote is a lovely gift for a child who is going off to college. If you are buying a present for a teenage girl, you might even want to choose something more elaborate with a precious stone. It is always nice to pick something that is part of a matching set too. You could have a bracelet engraved with something that relates to their journey - for instance “Education is the passport to the future” (Malcolm X) or “Education is the most important weapon which you can use to change the world” (Nelson Mandela).
A watch
When you are a college student, it is important that you are on time for your lectures and classes. Getting your child a special watch that they can wear every day will help them always arrive on time to where they need to be. You can check out Superwatches or just pick something classic that they can keep forever but which will never go out of style. You can even have the battery cover engraved with their name and the year.
When your child goes to college, it is a personal milestone for them. It is the perfect time to give them a heartfelt and meaningful gift that they will treasure for years to come.
A personalized notebook
An empty notebook has so much potential. It could be the book in which beautiful poetry is written or even a novel. It could be the notebook that will soon hold life-changing ideas and theories. It could simply be somewhere that your child can express their thoughts and feelings. When they go to college, get your teen a personalized notebook that they can carry with them. Choosing something with a hard-wearing cover like leather is a good idea, as it will last them for years.
