Five Star Gift Ideas

Here are some gift ideas for your grandma who loves indigenous knowledge and practices:

1. A book written by an indigenous author: Look for a book that reflects your grandma's interest in indigenous knowledge and practices. There are many books written by indigenous authors that celebrate and share their cultural heritage.

2. A traditional handiwork item: Handicrafts have a long-standing history in many indigenous cultures. You can consider gifting her handmade quilts, beaded bracelets, or a dream catcher, as these are some traditional items known for being beautiful and spiritually significant.

3. A plant: In many indigenous cultures, plants have spiritual importance. You could gift your grandma a native plant that she could plant in the garden or keep indoors. She could also learn a new skill like gardening or make natural remedies from plants.

4. Customized jewellery: Customized jewellery carrying an indigenous symbol makes for a beautiful and personal gift. This could be a handmade necklace, bracelet or ring made from materials like silver or beads.

5. Indigenous language learning material: Many indigenous communities have unique languages that are threatened. Consider purchasing some learning materials to help her learn about indigenous language and other practices.

It's also essential to approach such gifts with respect and sensitivity. You could do some research or ask around to learn more about your grandma's interests and preferences to offer a thoughtful gift that she will value.

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