Five Star Gift Ideas

For your daughter who enjoys exploring abandoned buildings, I have a few gift ideas that will cater to her adventurous spirit and passion for urban exploration:

1. Photography Equipment: A good camera or a new lens can make her abandoned expeditions even more exciting. Look for a durable camera that can handle different lighting conditions, and perhaps a wide-angle lens for capturing the vastness of abandoned spaces.

2. Urban Exploration Tools: Equip your daughter with a sturdy flashlight, a quality dust mask, gloves, and sturdy boots. These essentials will ensure her safety and enable her to better explore and document abandoned buildings.

3. Historical Books: Consider getting her books on urban decay and historical architecture. These books can provide her with knowledge about the history and stories behind the abandoned buildings she explores. Look for titles such as "Lost America" by Troy Paiva or "Abandoned Places: A Photographic Exploration of More Than 100 Worlds We Have Left Behind" by Richard Happer.

4. Urban Exploration Workshop: Search for local urban exploration or photography workshops that your daughter can attend. These workshops can help improve her skills, teach her new techniques, and connect her with like-minded individuals who share her passion.

5. Customized Maps: Create or get her a custom map of your region's abandoned buildings, noting interesting locations and landmarks she might want to explore. This personalized gift will show your support for her hobby and make it easier for her to plan her next adventure.

6. Collage or Photo Album: Collect some of the best shots she has taken during her explorations and turn them into a collage or a personalized photo album. This gift will allow her to showcase her work and reminisce about her favorite explorations.

7. Outdoor Adventure Gear: If she enjoys hiking or wilderness exploration alongside her urban ventures, consider gifting her outdoor gear like a comfortable backpack, a sturdy water bottle, a windproof jacket, or a multi-tool. These items will help her stay prepared and comfortable during her adventures.

8. Personalized Safety Equipment: Show your care for her well-being by getting her a custom-engraved safety bracelet, a personalized first aid kit, or a portable emergency phone charger. These items will provide her with peace of mind during her explorations.

Remember to emphasize safety and encourage her to explore responsibly, respecting private property and following any legal guidelines in place. By supporting her passion for urban exploration with thoughtful and practical gifts, you're showing your daughter that you embrace her hobbies and endeavors.

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.”
