Care packages are a great way to stay connected with your loved one during a military deployment. Not only can you send sentimental items such as kids artwork or gifts but they are also a great way to send necessary items that your loved one might need while they are away.
Snacks are usually one of the top items that people send in care packages. While most go-to care package packing lists will list sweets and junk food, there are a lot of healthy options you can send as well.
Below is my top 10 healthy options to send in a care package.
Dried Fruit
Mixed Nuts
Protein Bars
Protein Shake Mix
Granola Bars
Pop Corn
Beef Jerky (if allowed in the country)
Tea
Tuna
All Natural Powered Drink Mixes
These are just a few ideas to help you get started. There are SO many other items you could include. Don't forget-you know your loved one best. Send what they want or need. No matter what, they will enjoy receiving a care package from you.
