Five Star Gift Ideas

That's great! Here are a few gift ideas for your son that revolve around his love of chess:

1. A high-quality chessboard: You can never go wrong with a classic wooden chessboard. Consider a board that is handcrafted and comes with intricately detailed pieces that he can admire as he plays.

2. Chess books: Books on chess history or strategy can help your son improve his game and deepen his appreciation for the game. Some well-known titles include "My System" by Aron Nimzowitsch or "The Art of Attack" by Vladimir Vukovic.

3. Tournament clock: If your son plays chess competitively, consider getting him a tournament-quality chess clock. This gift will help him keep track of time during matches and give him the feeling of being a professional chess player.

4. Chess set with a twist: If your son is already an experienced chess player, consider getting him a unique twist on the classic game. You could buy him a themed chess set, such as a Star Wars chess set, that adds an exciting new element to the game he knows and loves.

5. Online chess course: If your son is interested in advancing his skills, consider gifting him an online chess course. He can watch instructional videos and learn from expert players, all from the comfort of his own home.

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.”
