Five Star Gift Ideas

If your son is passionate about geocaching and modern-day treasure hunting, there are plenty of gift options that can enhance his experience and make it even more exciting. Here are a few ideas that he is sure to love:

1. GPS Device: A high-quality GPS device is an essential tool for geocaching. Look for a device that has a long battery life, pre-loaded geocaches, and accurate satellite reception. This will help him navigate to hidden treasures with ease.

2. Geocaching Starter Kit: Consider putting together a geocaching starter kit for your son. Include items like a logbook, pencils, waterproof containers, and camouflage tape. This will not only enhance his geocaching experience but also make him feel like a true treasure hunter.

3. Geocaching App Membership: There are several geocaching apps available that provide access to a large community of geocachers and an extensive database of caches around the world. Consider gifting your son a membership to a geocaching app to increase his options for finding hidden treasures.

4. Travel Bug: A travel bug is a trackable tag attached to an item. Geocachers can move these items from cache to cache, and their progress can be tracked online. Choose a travel bug with a design or theme that your son will love, and he can watch it travel the world as other geocachers move it from cache to cache.

5. Geocaching Books: There are many books available on geocaching that provide valuable insights, tips, and stories from experienced geocachers. These books can inspire your son and help him learn more about the art of geocaching.

6. Outdoor Gear: Geocaching often involves exploring the great outdoors, so consider gifting your son some outdoor gear that he can use during his geocaching adventures. Items like a good quality backpack, waterproof boots, a sturdy water bottle, or a durable headlamp can all be great additions to his geocaching arsenal.

7. Geocaching Swag: Geocaching swag includes items like geocache containers, geocoins, patches, and unique trinkets that can be left or exchanged in caches. Look for items that align with your son's interests or hobbies to make his geocaching experience even more personal and enjoyable.

Remember, the best gift is one that shows thoughtfulness and consideration for your son's interests. With these geocaching gift ideas, your son will be well-equipped and excited to continue his treasure hunting adventures.

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.”
