Gift Ideas For The Perfect Big/Little Spoils Basket
One of the best parts about joining a sorority is receiving a big sister to serve as a role model and help you get acquainted with college life. With this process also comes showers of gifts to help welcome the new members into the sorority!
For those of you taking on a little this year, here is a list of some gift ideas that will surely make your new member feel loved:
Food
Want to know the way to your littles heart? Stock her baskets full of her favorite snacks, candies, and coffee orders and she’ll love you forever!
Self Care Items
Although joining a sorority is exciting, it can also be a bit overwhelming. Help ease any stress your little might be feeling by filling her baskets with face-masks, lotion, and nail polish.
Clothes
Let’s be real… was this not what you were most looking forward to when you received your spoils baskets? Your little can’t wait to begin repping her new home so passing down any of your old sorority shirts, hoodies, sweatpants, etc. will surely make her day. Not to mention this also provides the perfect opportunity to conduct a closet clean-out!
Planner/Journal
Joining a sorority can be quite time-consuming. Chapter meetings, sisterhoods, and philanthropy events are just a few things that will be added to your littles schedule. Help her stay organized by getting her a cute planner or journal!
Stuffed Animal
No better way to brighten your little’s day than by providing her with a cute stuffed animal she can cuddle with throughout the school year!
Drinkware
Water bottles, coffee mugs, shot glasses, you name it! These are things you know won’t go to waste if included in your littles basket. Take it a step up by personalizing them with your sororities’ letters so she can stay repping her new home!
Personalized Canvas
Help your little decorate her dorm by making her a personalized canvas! Not only do these make the best dorm decor, but knowing you painted it yourself will make this gift especially meaningful.
Although spoiling your little with gifts is a fun way to welcome her into the sorority, remember that the most important gift she will be receiving is you as a big sister. Regardless of what is in her baskets, your little will be so excited to have you to help guide her through this next chapter!
Cheers!
