Five Star Gift Ideas

If your son is a fan of crossword puzzles, then you have a lot of options for a meaningful and personal gift this holiday season. Here are a few ideas that may be helpful:

1. A subscription to a crossword puzzle magazine – There are many magazines that specialize in crossword puzzles, such as The New Yorker, The Atlantic, and Games. A year-long subscription to one of these magazines could be a great gift that provides your son with new puzzles to solve each month.

2. A personalized crossword puzzle – There are websites that allow you to create your own crossword puzzles, such as The Crossword Maker. You could use this tool to create a crossword puzzle that is personalized with your son's interests or inside jokes.

3. A crossword puzzle dictionary – Crossword puzzles often require a specific vocabulary, and a crossword puzzle dictionary could be a great resource for your son. You could also consider a book that provides tips and strategies for solving crossword puzzles, such as "How to Solve the New York Times Crossword Puzzle" by Amy Reynaldo.

4. Crossword puzzle-themed gifts – There are many gifts that feature crossword puzzles or crossword puzzle themes, such as mugs, t-shirts, or phone cases. You could even consider a customized crossword puzzle board or T-shirt with one of your son's favorite puzzle solutions.

5. A crossword puzzle app – If your son enjoys solving crossword puzzles on his phone or tablet, then you could consider getting him a crossword puzzle app. There are many apps available for both iOS and Android devices, such as the New York Times Crossword app, which lets your son solve puzzles from one of the most prestigious magazines in the US.

Ultimately, the best gift for your son will depend on his specific interests and preferences. However, any of these options could be a great way to show him that you care about his passions and want to support his hobbies.

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.”
