Five Star Gift Ideas

For your grandson who loves geocaching and letterboxing, there are some great gift options that can enhance his experience and bring him even more joy and excitement. Here are a few ideas:

1. Geocaching Starter Kit: Consider putting together a geocaching starter kit for your grandson. Include items such as a Geocaching GPS device or a subscription to a geocaching app, a compass, a small notepad and pen for logging finds, and some small trinkets or geocoins to leave behind in exchange for items found in caches.

2. Customized Geocache Containers: Personalize his geocache containers by creating unique and creative designs. You can customize a waterproof and durable container with his name or a special message to add a personal touch. This will make him feel proud and excited to hide his own geocaches.

3. Travel Bug: A travel bug is a trackable tag attached to an item that moves from cache to cache as it travels around the world. You can find travel bugs themed around his interests, such as nature, animals, or adventure. Let him release the travel bug into a geocache and track its journey online, fostering a sense of curiosity and connection to other geocachers.

4. Books and Resources: Expand his geocaching knowledge and inspire his sense of adventure with books about geocaching, treasure hunting, or outdoor exploration. There are also books available that specifically focus on letterboxing, providing tips, techniques, and inspiration for his hobby.

5. Letterboxing Starter Kit: If your grandson also enjoys letterboxing, consider putting together a letterboxing starter kit. Include materials such as a logbook, personalized signature stamp, ink pad, compass, and clues to nearby letterboxes. This will encourage him to explore new areas and engage in both hobbies.

6. Outdoor Adventure Gear: Help him stay safe and comfortable during his outdoor excursions by gifting him some practical gear. Consider items like a sturdy backpack, a comfortable pair of hiking boots, a multi-tool, a first aid kit, or a waterproof jacket. These items will be useful for geocaching, letterboxing, and any other outdoor adventures he might undertake.

7. Geocaching Adventures: Plan a geocaching adventure day with him. Spend some quality time together as you join him on a geocaching journey, exploring new locations and sharing in the excitement of discovering hidden treasures. This experience will create lasting memories and enhance his passion for geocaching.

Remember, the most important aspect is to support and encourage his hobbies. By giving a thoughtful gift related to geocaching and letterboxing, you will not only help fuel his enthusiasm but also show him that you understand and appreciate his interests.

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

“I made a map for my mums birthday and she absolutely loved it. Definitely buying another one soon, probably for another family member or friend”
