4. Online Subscription: Sign your grandson up for an online crossword puzzle subscription service, such as The New York Times' crossword puzzles. This way, he can access a wide variety of puzzles across different platforms, including computer, tablet, or smartphone. Such subscriptions often come with additional features like solving tips and access to archived puzzles.

5. Crossword Puzzle Board Game: If your grandson enjoys family game nights or wants to extend his crossword-solving experience with others, consider gifting him a crossword puzzle board game. These games allow multiple players to compete in solving crosswords against time or each other. Look for popular options like "Upwords," "Crossword Cubes," or "Bananagrams."

7. Crossword Puzzle Artwork: For a more creative and unique gift, find crossword puzzle artwork or prints that can be framed and displayed in your grandson's room. These pieces often feature beautifully designed, artistic representations of crossword puzzles, adding a touch of decor and intellectual flair to his space.

Remember, the best gift is one that reflects your grandson's interests and passions. By choosing a gift related to his love for crossword puzzles, you are not only encouraging his intellectual growth but also showing that you care and support his hobbies and interests.

Or you can get him a star map with the date when he was born.
