Five Star Gift Ideas

For your grandson who enjoys attending TED Talks and intellectual discussions, there are several gift ideas that can nurture his intellectual curiosity and provide valuable insights. Consider the following options:

1. TED Books Subscription: TED Books are short, thought-provoking reads that cover a wide range of topics. Subscribing your grandson to receive regular TED Books will ensure that he receives fresh ideas and perspectives straight to his doorstep on a regular basis.

2. Intellectual or Philosophical Books: If your grandson enjoys engaging with intellectual ideas and discussions, books written by renowned philosophers or intellectuals can make excellent gifts. Consider titles such as "Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind" by Yuval Noah Harari, "Thinking, Fast and Slow" by Daniel Kahneman, or "The Road to Character" by David Brooks.

3. Tickets to Intellectual Events: Search for upcoming intellectual events in your grandson's area, such as lectures, panel discussions, or conferences. Gifting him tickets to attend these events will provide him with the opportunity to engage in stimulating conversations and hear from experts in various fields.

4. College Course or Workshop: If your grandson has a particular interest or passion, he might appreciate the opportunity to further explore it through a college course or workshop. Research local universities or online platforms that offer courses in his area of interest and gift him enrollment for a semester or a specific workshop.

5. Subscription to a Podcast or Platform: Help your grandson expand his knowledge and stay updated on current affairs by gifting him a subscription to a podcast or platform that aligns with his intellectual interests. Options like "The Ted Radio Hour," "Stuff You Should Know," or "The History of Rome" provide hours of engaging content.

6. Mind-Enhancing Games: Consider gifting your grandson games that challenge his critical thinking skills and encourage intellectual growth. Chess or strategy-based board games like "Settlers of Catan" or "Codenames" can provide both entertainment and mental stimulation.

7. Personalized Moleskine Notebook: Provide your grandson with a high-quality notebook where he can jot down his thoughts, ideas, and reflections from the TED Talks and intellectual discussions he attends. You can even personalize the notebook with his name or a meaningful quote to add an extra touch.

Remember, the most meaningful gifts are those that cater to your grandson's specific interests and passions. By selecting a gift that aligns with his love for TED Talks and intellectual discussions, you are not only giving him a thoughtful present but also supporting his intellectual growth and curiosity.

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