Five Star Gift Ideas

If your son is into caving, there are a variety of great gift ideas available that could spark his interest and help him take his adventures to the next level. Here are a few suggestions to consider:

1. Headlamp: One essential item for any caver is a good headlamp. Look for one with a bright beam and a long battery life, as well as a comfortable fit, so your son can explore underground caves with ease.

2. Caving guidebook: Another great gift idea is a caving guidebook, which can offer detailed information about nearby caves and tips for exploring them safely. Check out online retailers or local outdoor stores for options.

3. Caving gloves: When exploring caves, it’s important to have a good pair of gloves to protect your hands from sharp rocks and other hazards. Consider getting your son a pair of durable, waterproof gloves that are specifically designed for caving.

4. Climbing gear: If your son is into more technical caving, he may appreciate some climbing gear to help him navigate cliffs and steep inclines. Look for items like rope, carabiners, and harnesses to give him the tools he needs to safely explore challenging caves.

5. GoPro camera: For the ultimate caving experience, consider getting your son a waterproof GoPro camera that he can use to capture his adventures. With its small size and durable build, the GoPro is perfect for capturing footage of underground caves and other natural wonders.

6. Caving classes: If your son is new to caving, consider giving him the gift of a caving class or guided tour. This can be a great way for him to learn the basics of caving and get some first-hand experience exploring caves under the guidance of a trained professional.

By choosing a gift that taps into your son’s love of caving, you can show him that you support his interests and are excited to help him pursue his passions. Whether it’s a practical item like gloves or a more experiential gift like a caving tour, there are plenty of ways to give a meaningful and memorable present that your son will love.

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.”
