Five Star Gift Ideas

For your grandson who loves to learn and perform circus tricks, there are numerous gift options that will enhance his skills and provide endless hours of fun. Here are a few suggestions:

1. Juggling Set: A high-quality juggling set is the perfect gift for someone passionate about learning to juggle. Look for a set that includes a variety of juggling balls or clubs, along with an instructional DVD or book if he is just starting out. This will allow him to learn new tricks and develop his juggling skills.

2. Circus Skills Workshop: Many cities offer circus skills workshops or classes where your grandson can learn from professionals. Look for local circus schools or studios offering intensive courses or one-day workshops. This hands-on experience will not only allow him to learn new tricks but also provide guidance from experts in the field.

3. Circus Books: Consider gifting your grandson with a collection of books about circus history, tricks, or famous performers. Look for titles that provide inspiration and can expand his knowledge of different circus acts and techniques. "The Juggling Book" by Charlie Dancey or "Juggling: From Antiquity to the Middle Ages" by Thom Wall are both excellent options to explore.

4. Portable Slackline Kit: Slacklining is an excellent activity that can improve balance and core strength, which are crucial skills for circus performers. Gift your grandson a portable slackline kit that he can set up in his backyard or at a local park. He can then practice different tricks and stunts, which will enhance his overall performance skills.

5. Circus Workshop Gift Certificate: If you're unsure of specific gifts, consider giving your grandson a gift certificate for a circus workshop or class. This way, he can choose the exact class or workshop that interests him the most, allowing him to continue developing his skills while also having the opportunity to learn new ones.

6. Tickets to a Circus Show: Another thoughtful and exciting gift idea is tickets to a live circus performance. This will not only entertain him but also inspire him by witnessing the amazing skills of professional circus performers. Look for shows with a variety of acts, like acrobatics, juggling, aerial performances, and clown comedy.

7. Juggling Accessories: Apart from juggling balls or clubs, there are various juggling accessories available that can add to your grandson's repertoire of tricks. Consider gifting him LED juggling balls that light up in different colors or juggling scarves that are easier to handle for beginners. These accessories will not only make juggling more visually impressive but also provide additional challenges and excitement.

Remember, the most meaningful gift for someone pursuing their passion is something that supports and encourages their interests. By choosing a gift that aligns with your grandson's love for juggling and circus tricks, you're not only showing your thoughtfulness but also helping him continue to develop his skills and ignite his passion for learning.

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