Five Star Gift Ideas

For your daughter, who enjoys both birdwatching and birdhouse making, you can consider a variety of thoughtful and meaningful gifts to nurture her passion and provide her with new opportunities to explore and engage with her hobbies. Here are a few ideas:

1. Binoculars: Invest in a good pair of compact and high-quality binoculars to enhance her birdwatching experience. Look for ones specifically designed for birdwatching with features like strong magnification, lightweight design, and weather resistance.

2. Field Guide: A comprehensive field guide to birds in your area can be a valuable resource for your daughter to identify different bird species when she goes birdwatching. Choose a guide with clear illustrations, detailed descriptions, and information about habitats, behaviors, and migration patterns.

3. Birdhouse Building Kit: Encourage your daughter's love for birdhouse making by gifting her a birdhouse building kit. Look for a set that comes with pre-cut pieces of wood, nails, and all the necessary tools to build and paint her own birdhouses. This hands-on activity will allow her to create personalized birdhouses for her feathered friends.

4. Birdhouse Camera: Consider purchasing a birdhouse camera that can be mounted on one of her birdhouses, allowing her to observe the birds from a close distance without disturbing them. This will provide her with a unique opportunity to capture bird behavior and learn more about their nesting habits.

5. Nature Journal: A beautiful, leather-bound journal or notebook can serve as a dedicated space for your daughter to record her birdwatching observations, jot down notes, and sketch the birds she encounters. Pair it with a set of high-quality colored pencils to add vibrancy to her illustrations.

6. Birdwatching Field Trip: Plan a special day with your daughter, where you can take her to a bird sanctuary, national park, or a wildlife reserve known for its diverse bird species. This outing not only allows her to indulge in her passion but also offers a chance to appreciate nature together.

7. Magazine Subscription: Consider getting her a subscription to a birding magazine that provides insightful articles, striking photographs, and updates on the latest birdwatching events and discoveries. This way, she'll have new inspiration and knowledge delivered directly to her door regularly.

Remember, the most important aspect of gift-giving is showing your daughter that you appreciate and support her interests. By choosing a present that aligns with her passion for birdwatching and birdhouse making, you demonstrate your thoughtfulness and encourage her to continue exploring her hobbies with enthusiasm and joy.

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.”
