Five Star Gift Ideas

For your son who enjoys practicing mindfulness through coloring, I have a few gift ideas that will complement his hobbies and help him explore this creative and calming activity even further.

1. Mindfulness Coloring Book: Look for a high-quality adult coloring book that specifically focuses on mindfulness and relaxation. These books often include intricate designs and patterns to color, accompanied by uplifting quotes or meditation prompts. This gift will not only provide him with endless hours of relaxation but also encourage his mindfulness practice.

2. Coloring Supplies: To enhance his coloring experience, consider gifting him a set of artist-grade coloring supplies. Look for premium quality colored pencils, markers, or gel pens that are vibrant, blendable, and long-lasting. Investing in good quality tools will allow him to create beautifully colored artwork and fully enjoy the process.

3. Meditation Music or Audiobooks: Pairing coloring with soothing background music or guided meditations can enhance the mindfulness experience. Consider gifting him a subscription to a meditation app or a collection of guided meditation audiobooks. This will allow him to create a tranquil ambiance and further deepen his relaxation while coloring.

4. Coloring Journal: A coloring journal can be a wonderful addition to his mindfulness routine. This journal combines the benefits of coloring with the therapeutic effects of journaling. It typically includes coloring pages intertwined with prompts for reflections, gratitude, or goal setting. This versatile gift will provide him with a space to express his creativity, reflect on his emotions, and focus on personal growth.

5. Creative Self-Care Kit: Put together a curated self-care package for your son, including several items that align with his mindfulness practice. You can include items like scented candles, herbal teas, essential oils, a soft blanket, and some healthy snacks. This gift will encourage him to create a peaceful and cozy environment while he colors, promoting a deep sense of relaxation and well-being.

6. Online Coloring Membership: Consider gifting him a subscription to an online coloring membership. There are several websites that offer a wide range of digital coloring pages, tools, and even interactive communities. This gift will allow him to explore a vast variety of designs, share his creations with like-minded individuals, and participate in themed challenges or contests.

Remember, it's always nice to add a personal touch to any gift. Consider writing a heartfelt message or including a handwritten note expressing your appreciation for his mindful journey and how proud you are of his dedication to self-care and well-being. This additional touch will make the gift even more meaningful.

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.”
