Five Star Gift Ideas

Choosing a gift for your granddaughter who loves theater can be a bit tricky, but there are several great options to consider. Here are a few thoughtful ideas that may give her a memorable and enjoyable experience on her birthday:

1. Tickets to a Broadway show: Many popular Broadway shows tour around the country or may have stops in nearby cities. Check out the schedules of upcoming shows and book a pair of tickets for her and a friend or family member. This will give your granddaughter the opportunity to watch a live performance and appreciate the art and craft of theater, which is sure to make her birthday very special.

2. A theater-themed book: There are a lot of excellent books out there which celebrate the great works of the stage, like "Hamilton: The Revolution"by Lin-Manuel Miranda, or "The Great Comet"by Dave Malloy. Alternatively, you could find a biography of her favorite actor, like "Audition" by Barbara Walters, to introduce her to someone who shares her passion.

3. A musical soundtrack: If your granddaughter loves to sing and dance, she might appreciate a copy of the soundtracks of her favorite musicals. It’s best to ask her directly or her parents to know which musical she loves the most, for example, "Dear Evan Hansen" or "Wicked," so you can get the correct album.

4. Theater-themed accessories: There are lots of items perfect for the grandchild who’s into the arts, including acting notebooks, playbills, posters, or even a themed t-shirt. These will definitely make her feel closer to the world she adores.

5. Acting classes: If your granddaughter dreams of becoming a performer, you might consider signing her up for acting classes in your area. These classes are intended to create the basic foundation for kids and involve building confidence, creativity, and teamwork.

Whichever gift you choose, make sure to let her know how proud you are of her and to encourage her to pursue her heart’s desire. A thoughtful gift like this will surely make her smile and give her a confidence boost.

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