For your boyfriend who enjoys doing crosswords or Sudoku puzzles, there are many thoughtful and fun gift ideas that would cater to his interests. Here are a few options that he might appreciate:

1. Puzzle Books: Purchase a collection of crossword or Sudoku puzzle books from his favorite authors or publications. Look for books with different difficulty levels or themes, such as travel, sports, or pop culture. This way, he can continue challenging himself with new puzzles whenever he wants.

2. Puzzle Subscription Service: Consider gifting him a subscription to a puzzle service like the New York Times Crossword or Sudoku Puzzle Club. These services provide new puzzles every day, ensuring that he always has a fresh challenge waiting for him.

3. Puzzle Board or Mat: Help him solve puzzles comfortably with a puzzle board or mat. These specially designed accessories provide a smooth surface and keep the puzzle pieces secure, allowing him to work on his puzzles without the fear of losing progress. Look for ones that are portable and can be easily stored.

4. Puzzle Organizer: If your boyfriend loves juggling multiple puzzles at once, a puzzle organizer could be a perfect gift. These organizers have compartments to sort and store puzzle pieces, making it easier for him to work on different puzzles simultaneously without any confusion.

5. Customized Puzzle: Take his puzzle-solving experience to a whole new level by creating a personalized crossword or Sudoku puzzle just for him. Include inside jokes, memorable moments, or references that are significant to your relationship. You can either make it by hand or find online services that allow you to create custom puzzles.

6. Puzzle Conventions or Events: If your boyfriend enjoys the challenge of solving puzzles in a group setting, consider gifting him tickets to a puzzle convention or event. These gatherings bring together puzzle enthusiasts from around the world and offer various competitions, workshops, and opportunities to meet like-minded individuals.

7. Puzzle Board Game: Expand his puzzle-solving horizons by introducing him to puzzle board games like "Codenames" or "Bananagrams." These games are a blend of wordplay and strategy, and they will likely provide him with hours of entertainment with friends and family.

8. Puzzle-Themed Clothing or Accessories: Surprise him with puzzle-themed clothing items like t-shirts, socks, or hoodies. You can also find accessories such as keychains, mugs, or phone cases featuring crossword or Sudoku puzzles. These gifts would allow him to showcase his love for puzzles even during everyday activities.
