Five Star Gift Ideas

It's wonderful to hear that your grandson is interested in youth mentoring and wants to make a difference in the lives of young people. Here are a few meaningful and personal gift ideas you can consider:

1. A book about mentoring: There are several great books about mentoring that your grandson may enjoy. "The Mentoring Manual" by Julie Starr and "The Art of Mentoring: Embracing the Great Generational Transition" by Darlene Zschech are two good options. These books will provide your grandson with valuable advice and insight on how to become a great mentor.

2. A mentoring program membership: There are many mentoring organizations that your grandson can join, like Big Brothers Big Sisters, that pair him with a younger person that he can mentor. You can pay for a membership or sign your grandson up for a mentoring program he's interested in. He will gain valuable skills and knowledge, and his mentee will benefit greatly from his guidance and support.

3. A community service project: Your grandson can organize and lead a volunteer project for children. For example, he can organize a sports or educational event for kids in his community, or plan a visit to a children's hospital to bring some joy to their lives. This gift gives him the opportunity to practice leadership skills and connect with others.

4. A mentoring kit: You can create a kit filled with resources that will help your grandson become a better mentor. You can include books, workbook or journal, pens, pencils, and even a gift card to a coffee shop where he can meet with his mentee.

5. A personalized gift: You can create a personalized gift that celebrates your grandson's love for mentoring. For example, you can create a custom shirt or hat with a quote about mentoring that motivates him. This gift will remind him of his passion every time he wears it.

I hope one of these gift ideas will work for your grandson, and he'll be able to continue making a positive impact on the lives of young people.

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