Gifts For Adult Children Who Are Moving Out

by Tonya Staab

These gifts for adult children who are moving out of home for the first time are practical, thoughtful, and will be appreciated.

My oldest son has moved out three times now. I think this move has stuck seeing as he has purchased his first home. Although he seems to only ask for money for his birthday and Christmas now, I prefer to give more practical gifts.

I know that money is tight when you first move out, but being a mom I still want to make sure ‘my baby’ is safe and taken care of. I’m a worrier by nature, so taking care of things when I can helps ease my mind. These kits are perfect for:

  • College students
  • First home-buyers
  • Housewarming
  • Adult children moving out with friends

Recently my son hurt his neck. He has a lot of back and neck problems after a car accident that left him with his pelvis and spine being re-attached with screws. I told him to take Tylenol and have a hot shower. He told me he didn’t have Tylenol, which lead me to put together this kit for him.
