The zman just ended…but before you know it, they’ll be back off to yeshiva.
You know what a mad dash it is when your son comes home from camp and heads right back out to the dorm. There’s barely a day or two between the time when mesivta and bais medrash age boys come home from camp until the zman starts.
Plus, if you have a boy going out of town, there’s even less time, as travel needs to be taken into account.
That means, it’s best to plan ahead, and have his favorites waiting for him. (And if he is around, get those favorites in-house now because the stores are crowded).
For boys going out of town, this packing list is a great guide: What to Pack for a Boy Going to Yeshiva Out of Town.
And, of course, there are some items that are important to send along that don’t fit in a suitcase. Yes, he needs to take along some practical tips, perhaps the ones in this Yeshiva Bochur’s Guide to Laundry download. But more importantly, how do we send him off with love and a feeling of connection? You don’t want to miss this post on Sending Him Off to Yeshiva – with a Love That Lasts Beyond Goodbye.
Back to those suitcases! These are some of our recommended picks, both for clothing and odds and ends they’ll enjoy having in the dorm.
Top in the list are those ever-popular favorites, like the T.O. Flex Pants and the Platinum Stretch Shirt (a special item!). New are items our boys are really enjoying, like the Waffle Robe and dorm essentials like the Bronax Slides, the items that make his dorm bed more comfy, and our recommended shampoos, body wash, deodorant, mouthwash, and more.
