Five Star Gift Ideas

For your granddaughter who loves stand-up comedy and improv shows, I have a few thoughtful and personal gift ideas that might bring joy and laughter to her special day:

1. Comedy Show Tickets: Look out for upcoming stand-up comedy or improv shows in your area. Buying a pair of tickets for her and a friend or family member will not only give her the opportunity to see her favorite comedians live but also create memories that she will cherish. Make sure to choose a show featuring comedians she admires or whose style she enjoys.

2. Comedy Workshop or Class: Help your granddaughter take her passion for comedy to the next level by enrolling her in a comedy workshop or improv class. These classes not only provide valuable training and guidance but also allow her to interact with like-minded individuals and expand her comedy skills. This gift can enhance her confidence, creativity, and stage presence.

3. Autobiographies of Comedians: If your granddaughter enjoys reading, consider gifting her autobiographies or memoirs of her favorite comedians. This will give her insights into the personal lives, struggles, and triumphs of renowned comedians, and inspire her in her own comedic journey. Some popular options include "Bossypants" by Tina Fey, "Born Standing Up" by Steve Martin, and "Dad is Fat" by Jim Gaffigan.

4. Comedy Movies or TV Shows: Create a collection of comedy movies or TV shows that she can enjoy on her special day or whenever she wants a good laugh. Choose from classic comedies like "Annie Hall," "Airplane!" or "Monty Python and the Holy Grail," or contemporary favorites like "Bridesmaids," "Superbad," or "The Hangover." Consider pairing this gift with some popcorn and snacks for a cozy movie night.

5. Stand-Up Comedy Merchandise: Surprise your granddaughter with merchandise from her favorite stand-up comedians. T-shirts, posters, or mugs featuring iconic jokes or catchphrases can make for a fun and personalized gift. Explore the official websites of her favorite comedians or online marketplaces for a wide range of merchandise options.

6. Improv Games or Cards: Encourage her creativity and spontaneity by gifting a set of improv games or cards. These cards often contain prompts that can spark hilarious improvisation and storytelling. Playing these games with friends or family can be a great way to have a good time filled with laughter and shared memories.

Remember, the key to a meaningful gift is to show that you have considered her interests and passions. These suggestions aim to connect her love for stand-up comedy and improv shows with experiences, knowledge, and memorabilia that she can appreciate and enjoy.

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

Bridget Shields says about Under Lucky Stars star maps:

“I wanted a keepsake to give to my father for his birthday as he has terminal cancer. He was delighted by his gift. The process of ordering was easy and delivery was prompt. A great gift idea.”
