Five Star Gift Ideas

That's a great hobby for your son, and there are fun and thoughtful gifts you can give him that are related to making bee hotels. Here are some ideas:

1. DIY bee hotel kit: Since your son enjoys making bee hotels, he might love a DIY kit that includes all the necessary materials, instructions, and tools to make one. You can create your own kit or look online for one, but make sure it's appropriate for his skill level.

2. Bee identification guide: Your son might want to learn more about different types of bees and how they use the hotels he creates. You could get him a book or a poster that has pictures and descriptions of bees and their behavior.

3. Mason bee cocoons: Mason bees are one of the most common bee species your son will attract to his bee hotels. You can order mason bee cocoons online or from a local garden store so your son can see them up close and learn more about their life cycle.

4. Bee-themed art or decor: You could also get your son something that reflects his interest in bees and bee hotels, such as a piece of artwork, a mug, or a poster. This type of gift can be both fun and functional!

5. Beekeeping class: For a more hands-on experience, you could see if there are any beekeeping classes or workshops in your area that your son could attend. He'll learn more about beekeeping and bee hotels, and meet other people who share his interest.


Remember to have fun and be creative with your gift-giving this holiday season!

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.”
