Five Star Gift Ideas

If your son is a fan of board games and game nights, then there are plenty of thoughtful and engaging gift ideas that would be perfect for him this Christmas. Here are a few suggestions:

1. New Board Game: Surprise him with a new board game that he doesn't have in his collection. Consider his preference for game genres such as strategy, cooperative, or party games. Research popular and highly rated games within those categories, and choose one that aligns with his interests. Some popular options could include "Settlers of Catan," "Ticket to Ride," or "Codenames."

2. Board Game Accessories: Enhance his gaming experience by gifting him various accessories. This can include items like upgraded playing cards, premium dice sets, themed card sleeves, or even a game organizer or storage solution to keep his collection neat and organized. These accessories can both personalize and enhance his gaming sessions.

3. Game Night Refreshments: Create a game night goodies basket filled with snacks, his favorite drinks, and treats that he can enjoy during his gaming sessions. You can include gourmet popcorn, unique flavors of potato chips, craft sodas, and even some homemade baked goods. This thoughtful gift will add an extra layer of enjoyment to his game nights.

4. Multiplayer Video Game: If he enjoys board games, chances are he might also enjoy multiplayer video games. Consider gifting him a popular multiplayer game that he can play with friends online or locally. Discuss his gaming preferences and favorite genres to find a game that suits his interests. "Mario Kart," "Overwatch," or "Super Smash Bros." are all examples of engaging multiplayer games.

5. Board Game Subscription Box: Surprise him with a subscription to a board game box service. These subscription services deliver new and exciting board games right to your doorstep every month. Some popular options include "Board Game Bento," "UnboxBoardom," or "The Board Game Crate." Each month, he'll receive a surprise board game, ensuring that his collection always has fresh content to explore.

6. Personalized Scoreboard: A thoughtful and unique gift idea is a personalized scoreboard. This could be a magnetized scoreboard that sticks to the fridge or a custom-made wooden scoreboard that adds a touch of personalization to his game nights. Include his name or a special message to make it extra meaningful.

Remember, the most important aspect of gift-giving is considering his interests and preferences. By choosing a gift that aligns with his passion for board games and game nights, you're sure to give him a present he'll truly appreciate and enjoy.

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

“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.”
