-Scrapbook
-Something related to the college he's going to
-Things for his dorm; bedding, storage, pictures
-Something from Things Remembered--they always have awesome gifts and you can get them engraved to be personalized.
-A gift basket full of some of his favorite things: candy, movies, music
S_C answered Saturday April 18 2009, 1:24 pm: Is he going to college? You could make him some kind of care package with food, pencils, pens, notebooks, etc... a few things he'll really need.
Trust me, I'm in college, and there's no greater gift than food, music, or school supplies.
Also, you could make him something "class of 2009" related - a scrapbook of pictures of him throughout high school (ask his mom if you want to include funny baby pictures and stuff, too... she may have doubles you can have and/or make copies of).
Most of my ideas are "if he's going to college" ideas, so if he isn't, I don't really have much else I can think of. [ S_C's advice column | Ask S_C A Question ]
