Walmart.Com's "Off To College"

"MEET TWO MOMS WITH COLLEGE-BOUND KIDS"


I'm one of those Moms!

Today marks the launch of Walmart.com's "Off To College" campaign, in which I was graciously included by the wonderful folks over at Walmart.com.


The site is full of articles ranging from campus life and supply checklists, to organizing your dorm room. There are Q&A's where questions are submitted by Moms (or Dads!) and you can click and see how others have come to their aid and answered.

My son and I are featured under "Beth's Top Ten Graduation Gift Ideas" where we have commented on our Top Ten Picks for graduation gifts and our feelings of importance for each one. A colleague and friend of mine, through our activities with Walmart and Walmart.com, is featured under "Lindy's Off-to-College Tips" where she lists (from experience-her daughter has already completed her Freshman year in college!) great tips for your new college-bound student.

Do you really want to get in on the spirit of things? Share with us your memorable moments of graduation, heading off to college, or the spirit of campus life, and submit a photo! Or, submit one of your own tips - as the Mom of a new college student, I welcome all the advice I can get!

It is an incredibly interactive site of which I'm very proud to be a part. Visit the site, check out the featured articles, post your question, share your photos, or submit a tip. We'd love to hear from you! Check in often, and watch for Lindy's "Top Ten Picks" for creating the perfect dorm room!

Let me know if you've posted any pictures or tips - I'd love to see them. I look forward to seeing you there!
