Five Star Gift Ideas

For your daughter who loves 69 and writing poetry, I have a couple of thoughtful gift ideas that may inspire her creative pursuits and bring her joy.

1. Book of Poetry: Consider gifting her a collection of poetry by influential poets or a poetry anthology that covers a range of themes and styles. This can offer her diverse perspectives and fuel her passion for writing. Some popular options include "Milk and Honey" by Rupi Kaur or "The Sun and Her Flowers" by the same author. Alternatively, you could research and find a poetry book that aligns with her specific interests or favorite poets.

2. Writing Journal: A beautiful writing journal can be a fantastic gift for any aspiring poet. Look for one with a unique cover design or perhaps personalize it with her name or favorite quote. This will not only provide her with a dedicated space to jot down her thoughts and ideas but also serve as a keepsake for her writing journey. Additionally, you might consider complementing the journal with a set of high-quality pens or markers in various colors to enhance her creativity.

3. Poetry Workshop or Course: Encourage her passion for writing by enrolling her in a poetry workshop or course. These can be either online or in-person, depending on her preferences and availability. Such workshops provide a nurturing environment where she can develop her skills, learn from experienced poets, and engage in collaborative discussions with fellow writers. This experience can be both educational and inspiring for her growth as a poet.

4. Scratch Off Poetry Poster: Another creative and unique gift option is a scratch-off poetry poster. These posters feature a series of poems, and as she reads and enjoys them, she can scratch off the corresponding area, revealing beautiful illustrations or colors beneath. It can be an engaging way for her to discover new poetry while also decorating her living space.

5. Poetry Subscription Box: Consider surprising her with a subscription to a poetry box service. These monthly or quarterly subscriptions deliver curated poetry collections, often including works from emerging poets, along with additional goodies like bookmarks, postcards, and other related items. This ongoing gift will constantly remind her of her love for poetry and provide her with a variety of new material to explore.

Remember, the most important aspect of any gift is the thought and care put into selecting it. By choosing something that aligns with her interests and passions, you are sure to offer her a meaningful and personal gift that will be cherished for years to come.

Or you can get her a star map with the date when she was born.

Luann Skinner says about Under Lucky Stars star maps:

“I ordered the star map 8 days before my daughter's birthday. It arrived in 7 days just in time for her birthday. Thank you! She loved the star map.”
