Five Star Gift Ideas

For your puzzle-loving son, why not consider a personalized and unique gift that taps into his love for puzzle-solving? Here are a few ideas that he is sure to enjoy:

1. Puzzle Subscription Box: Consider getting your son a subscription to a puzzle-solving box, where he will receive a new puzzle or brain teaser every month. These boxes often include a variety of puzzle types, such as crosswords, jigsaw puzzles, and logic games. It's a gift that keeps on giving, as he can look forward to a new challenge each month.

2. Puzzle Book: If your son enjoys crosswords and puzzles, he is likely to appreciate a well-curated puzzle book. Look for a book that offers a range of difficulty levels and puzzle types, ensuring that he can enjoy solving puzzles that suit his skill level and interests. Some puzzle books even include themed puzzles or variations on traditional puzzles, making the experience even more exciting.

3. Escape Room Experience: If your son enjoys the thrill of puzzle-solving, consider gifting him a trip to an escape room. These interactive experiences require players to solve puzzles and find clues to escape from a themed room within a set time limit. It's an adventurous and immersive way for him to put his puzzle-solving skills to the test and enjoy a fun and challenging experience with family or friends.

4. Puzzle Board: Help your son enjoy his puzzle-solving activities more conveniently with a dedicated puzzle board. These boards provide a stable surface for assembling jigsaw puzzles, and many come with special features like raised edges to prevent pieces from falling off. Some boards even come with sorting trays or compartments to help organize the pieces. This thoughtful gift will make his puzzle-solving experience more comfortable and organized.

5. Puzzle-Related Software/App: If your son enjoys solving puzzles digitally, consider gifting him puzzle-solving software or apps for his computer, tablet, or phone. There are various puzzle games available that offer a wide range of challenges, such as cryptic crosswords, sudoku, or digital jigsaw puzzles. Look for apps or software that offer a variety of puzzles, regular updates, and customizable settings to cater to his preferences.

6. Customized Puzzle: For a truly personalized gift, consider creating a custom puzzle featuring a photo or image that is meaningful to your son. There are many online services that allow you to upload a photo and create a jigsaw puzzle from it. This gift not only celebrates his love for puzzles but also adds a sentimental touch.

Remember, regardless of which gift you choose, the most important aspect is that it reflects your son's interests and shows that you have put thought into choosing something meaningful and tailored specifically for him.

Or you can get him a star map with an important date you share.

“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.”
