10 Prisoner Gift Ideas

They Don’t Have to be Expensive!

1. Present for his kids – This can go further than anything you may be able to give him directly.

2. Dedicate a song to him on the radio – A great way to share a moment… and save it.

3. Puzzles, puzzles, and more puzzles – Games can keep his mind occupied and engaged.

4.  Jokes, stories, and trivia from the Internet – It’s free and can provide a much-needed laugh.

5. Get him a subscription to his hometown paper or his favorite (allowed) magazine – Keeps him connected in a productive way.

6. Religious books – He may already have a bible, but there are wonderful spiritual books that can help him understand that bible in surprising new ways.

7. Read the same book at the same time – It’s another experience you can share.

8. Visit as often as you can! – No explanation needed.

9  Contact his prison and find out what you can and cannot send him – Sure, maybe it’s the thought that counts, but seriously, a gift isn’t worth much if he can’t get it.

10. A “JPay” care package – They have many sizes and price points depending on your budget.
Bonus) Give him hope – It goes a long, long way
