Separated From Your Loved Ones? 7 Ways to Show Your Thinking of Them

September 28, 2020

Living far away from friends and family is never easy, and that’s especially true as we all continue to practice social distancing measures.

One way to let your loved ones know you care about them and they’re on your mind is by sending a gift. Here are seven great gifts to let someone know you are thinking of them.

1. Write a Heartfelt Letter to Loved Ones

Sometimes, the simplest gifts can mean the most to us. While receiving an extravagant gift in the mail is always fun, a handwritten note can feel more personal and make you feel loved.

Find a card that expresses your message, whether it’s celebratory or sympathetic, and write your loved one a meaningful note. You can even make your own greeting card for the occasion, online or by hand.

In today’s digital world where emails and texts are our most popular forms of communication, a handwritten letter is something to treasure. You can even include a photo of you together as an added touch.

2. Share a Book You’ve Loved

If you’ve just finished a pulse-pounding thriller or a moving memoir that you loved, why not share that book with your loved ones? Send them your own copy or buy them one of their own, so that they can enjoy it too.

This can be a great gift option because once you’ve both read the book, you can also schedule time some to discuss it. This virtual book club is a great way to keep in touch and catch up with someone you love.

3. Send Personalized Gift Baskets

If you’re not sure what to send, try looking for gift baskets. When it comes to these curated gifts, there are options that will appeal to everyone. They’ll take away some of the stress of having to choose items and pack them yourself.

To find the right gift basket, try searching for one related to their interests. If they’re a foodie, you might find one with recipes and helpful kitchen tools. Harry & David even has options that big sports fans will love.

4. Have Flowers Delivered

No matter the occasion, flowers are the perfect way to reach out to someone who you’re separated from. Whether you’re celebrating a friend’s birthday or just want someone to know you’re thinking of them, you can’t go wrong with beautiful blooms.

They can also be a thoughtful expression of love for anyone who’s going through a hard time or recent loss. Flowers can let them know they’re not alone and that you’ll always be in their corner.

You can even choose a bouquet that speaks to your relationship – roses, for example, can be a great option if you’re thinking of a romantic partner. You can also look for something seasonal or holiday-related, depending on the time of year.

You can even take advantage of international flower delivery to let someone know you care, no matter how far away they are.

5. Mail Their Favorite Foods

If the way to your friend’s heart is through their stomach, then one of the best personalized gifts that you can send is something tasty.

If your loved one is far from home, one thoughtful thing to do is round up foods that will remind them of home. That might be their favorite local jams or a type of candy that can’t be found in a different country.

Taking the time to gather these things will let your loved one know you’re thinking of them and give them something special that they’re missing while they’re away.

Delicious desserts are another fun food-related gift idea. Whether you go with chocolates or chocolate-covered strawberries, the friends or family members you’re separated from will love receiving this sweet package.

You can even send things like ice cream and pie cross-country, so be sure to track down a dessert that you know they’ll love.

You don’t have to stop with food either. Gifts of wine can be great for vino-loving friends and families. Try finding a bottle that you’ve enjoyed together in the past for an added personalized touch, or opt for wine from their favorite winery.

6. Send a Fun Activity Kit

Finding fun activities that can be done at home can be a tall task, especially as we all continue to social distance.

That’s where a gift for your loved ones can come in handy: You can send them an activity kit that will keep them entertained and make for a fun – and safe – night in.

For artsy friends and families, a painting kit can be the perfect way for them to stretch their creativity and show off their artistic chops. Paint-by-numbers kits can also be a good choice for friends and families who have younger children.

A dessert kit or meal kit with easy-to-follow instructions is always a crowd-pleaser, and for anyone who loves sipping fancy libations, a cocktail kit is a go-to choice. That way your loved ones can make a meal or drink and enjoy it while thinking of you.

7. Give a Cheerful Plant

While flowers are a great and popular gift option, don’t forget that you can send plants and succulents too. Gifting a friend some greenery can liven up their living space and give them something nice to look at – and look after.

Plus, being around something green can help us feel both happier and more relaxed – who wouldn’t love a gift that can do that?

Plants can even boost productivity, which can make them the ideal gift for career-driven loved ones. They can even set up the succulent right in their home office.

Send a Gift Today

Being separated from your loved ones is never easy. But sending a gift that they’ll love, whether it’s beautiful flowers, a heartfelt and handwritten note, or a delicious cocktail kit, can let them know that they’re never far from your thoughts.
