Five Star Gift Ideas

For your grandpa who loves studying and practicing magic tricks, I have a few meaningful and personal gift ideas that I think he would truly appreciate. These gift ideas will not only enhance his magic skills but also show him how much you care about his passion.

1. Magic Trick Set: Surprise your grandpa with a comprehensive magic trick set that includes a variety of tricks and props. Look for sets that offer both beginner and advanced level tricks, as this will allow him to continuously challenge himself and improve his skills. Make sure to choose a set that aligns with his interests, whether it's card tricks, coin tricks, or other types of illusions.

2. Magic Books: Help expand your grandpa's magical knowledge by gifting him a collection of magic books written by renowned magicians. Look for books that explore different aspects of magic, such as history, theory, and advanced techniques. Some popular titles include "The Royal Road to Card Magic" by Jean Hugard and Frederick Braue, or "The Expert at the Card Table" by S.W. Erdnase. These books will provide him with hours of reading pleasure and endless inspiration for new tricks to master.

3. Magic Classes or Workshops: Consider signing your grandpa up for magic classes or workshops where he can learn directly from experienced magicians. Look for local magic clubs or schools that offer courses specifically designed for adults. These classes will allow him to interact with fellow magic enthusiasts, exchange ideas, and receive guidance from professionals. It's a gift that will not only enhance his skills but also provide him with a social and supportive community.

4. Customized Magic Props: Personalize your gift by getting him custom-made magic props. For example, you could have a set of playing cards or a deck holder engraved with his name or a special message. This adds a sentimental touch to an already cherished hobby and shows him how much thought you put into his gift.

5. Magic Convention Tickets: Surprise your grandpa with tickets to a magic convention. These conventions bring together renowned magicians, vendors selling magic props, and numerous performances and workshops. It's an opportunity for your grandpa to immerse himself in the world of magic, meet like-minded individuals, and be surrounded by his favorite hobby. He can attend lectures, watch live performances, and even try out new tricks.

Remember, the most important thing is to choose a gift that aligns with your grandpa's specific interests and is tailored to his skill level. By doing so, you will not only encourage his passion for magic but also show him how much you support and appreciate his hobbies.

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

Madeline Moran Weiler says about Under Lucky Stars star maps:

“The map was absolutely beautiful! My grandson was thrilled with it (it was a Christmas gift) and has already asked me if I would consider getting another one for him as a graduation gift in a couple of years.”
