Five Star Gift Ideas

For your granddaughter who loves circus skills, I have some great gift ideas that will not only enhance her abilities but also foster her passion for learning and performing. Here are a few suggestions:

1. Aerial Silks Set: A set of high-quality aerial silks would be a fantastic gift for your granddaughter. It will allow her to practice and improve her skills at home or even in her backyard. Look for a package that includes the silk fabric, carabiners, and rigging equipment.

2. Trapeze Lessons: Enroll your granddaughter in a trapeze course or workshop to provide her with professional guidance and training. Many circus schools offer introductory lessons tailored to different skill levels, ensuring a safe and educational experience for your granddaughter.

3. Circus Equipment: Consider gifting various circus equipment, such as juggling balls, hula hoops, diabolos, or spinning poi. These props can be a fun addition to her circus routine, offering different challenges and enhancing her overall performance.

4. Books on Circus Skills: There are several informative and engaging books available that delve into the world of circus skills, providing insights, techniques, and inspiring stories about performers. Some recommended titles include "The Aerialist's Handbook" by Megan Cattau, "Circus Techniques: Juggling, Stilt Walking, Insects" by Claude Victoria, or "Circus Alphabets: Learning to Juggle" by Liz Humm.

5. Performance Costume: A custom-made or professionally designed performance costume can make your granddaughter feel like a true circus artist. Collaborate with a local costume designer to create a unique and stunning outfit that matches her style and personality.

6. Circus Workshop: Organize a private circus workshop, inviting a professional performer to teach your granddaughter and her friends or family members. This can be an exciting and memorable experience, fostering her love for circus skills in a social and interactive setting.

7. Circus-themed Artwork: Surprise your granddaughter with circus-inspired artwork, such as a beautiful painting, a photography print, or a vintage circus poster. This gift will not only decorate her space but also serve as a daily reminder of her passion and dedication.

Remember to support and encourage your granddaughter's interest in circus skills. By selecting gifts that align with her passion, you can show her how much you care and believe in her abilities.

Or you can get her a star map with an important date you share.
