4. Mystery Subscription Box: Surprise your grandson with a mystery subscription box, where he can receive periodic deliveries of puzzles, games, and clues to solve a fictional mystery. These boxes often include interactive elements like hidden messages, cipher puzzles, and genuine artifacts, making the experience all the more exciting and immersive for him.
