I have a greater concern, a kid at my son's school has a nut allergy, which can be fatal to some (anaphylactic reaction), and being showered in nuts would be more than enough to trigger it.

NEVER, NEVER, NEVER use packing peanuts. They are a HUGE NUISANCE to get rid of, they fly all over the place when you try to unpack them. I have
gotten so angry when people ship peanuts to me that I've re-packed them
in a box and shipped them back, at my expense.
Bubble wrap is far more manageable, and can be loosely crumpled to
provide good cushioning within the package. Even crumpled newsprint is a
lot better -- at least we can burn it as kindling or put it in the
recycling bin :)
