Five Star Gift Ideas

For a son who is passionate about learning circus skills like juggling and acrobatics, there are numerous gift ideas that can help him further explore and develop his talents. Here are a few meaningful and personal gift suggestions:

1. Circus Equipment Kit: Consider getting him a circus equipment kit that includes items like juggling balls, juggling scarves, diabolo, devil stick, or even a beginner's acrobatics set. This kit will not only provide him with the tools he needs to practice and improve his skills but also inspire him to broaden his circus repertoire.

2. Circus-themed Books: Encourage his learning and creativity by gifting him circus-themed books. There are plenty of options available, such as instructional books on juggling techniques, circus history books, or even circus-themed novels or children's books. These books can offer him both educational value and entertainment, serving as a source of inspiration for his circus journey.

3. Circus Classes or Workshops: Consider enrolling him in a circus class or workshop. Whether it's a local circus school or a specialized training facility, such experiences offer him the opportunity to learn from professionals, explore different techniques, and interact with like-minded individuals. This gift not only enhances his skills but also allows for networking and building lasting friendships within the circus community.

4. Professional Performance Tickets: Surprise him with tickets to a circus performance featuring renowned acrobats, jugglers, or a circus troupe he admires. Watching professionals showcase their skills live can be a great source of inspiration and motivation for him. It also provides an opportunity for him to learn by observing and appreciating the artistry and techniques of experienced performers.

5. Customized Circus Gear: Personalize a gift by having circus gear customized with his name or any design that reflects his personality. This could include a custom juggling ball set with his initials, a gym bag or tote featuring circus-themed artwork, or even a unique juggling club or acrobatics mat designed just for him. This personalized touch will make the gift feel even more special and show that you support his passion.

6. Subscription to Circus-related Magazines or Online Courses: Consider gifting him a subscription to a circus-related magazine or an online platform offering courses and tutorials on various circus skills. This will allow him to continue learning and stay updated on the latest techniques and trends, even from the comfort of his own home. Such resources can provide a wealth of knowledge and serve as a constant source of inspiration.

Remember, the most meaningful gifts come from the thought and effort put into selecting something that aligns with his interests. By choosing a gift that supports and encourages his passion for circus skills, you are showing him that you recognize and value his dedication to this art form.

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.”
