Five Star Gift Ideas

Here are a few gift ideas based on your mom's interest in world history:

1. A world history book: You could look for a comprehensive book on world history that your mom can read and keep as a reference. Some current popular ones include "Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind" by Yuval Noah Harari and "Guns, Germs, and Steel: The Fates of Human Societies" by Jared Diamond.

2. Subscription to a history magazine: Consider getting a subscription to a history magazine such as National Geographic History or Smithsonian Magazine which publishes articles on world history.

3. Virtual tour of historical sites: Check out virtual tours of historical sites in other parts of the world, such as the pyramids of Egypt, the Colosseum in Rome, or the Great Wall of China.

4. Tickets to a historical museum: Plan a trip to a nearby or historical museum that features exhibits on world history. You can check out the Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History, the British Museum, or the Natural History Museum in New York.
