Five Star Gift Ideas

If your son enjoys solving riddles and brain teasers, there are plenty of gift ideas that can cater to his interests and provide him with hours of fun and stimulating challenges. Here are a few thoughtful and engaging gift suggestions:

1. Riddle or puzzle book: Look for a collection of riddles or puzzles specifically designed for his age group. Choose a book that includes a variety of difficulty levels so he can gradually progress and work on increasingly challenging brain teasers.

2. Escape room experience: Take the excitement of solving puzzles and riddles to the next level by treating your son to an escape room experience. These real-life adventure games require participants to solve a series of clues and puzzles within a time limit to escape from a themed room. It's a thrilling and immersive experience that will provide him with a memorable challenge.

3. Puzzle subscription box: Consider subscribing to a puzzle or mystery box service that delivers a new brain teaser or riddle directly to your son's doorstep every month. This way, he will constantly have fresh challenges to solve and can enjoy the surprise of receiving a new puzzle regularly.

4. Brain teaser board games: Look for board games that are designed to test and challenge the brain. Games like "Rush Hour," "Code Names," or "Qwirkle" are excellent options that combine strategy, problem-solving, and fun.

5. Rubik's Cube or other mechanical puzzles: The classic Rubik's Cube is a timeless brain teaser that can keep your son engaged and entertained for hours. If he already has one, consider searching for different variants, such as the Pyraminx, Megaminx, or Mirror Cube, to add more variety to his collection of mechanical puzzles.

6. DIY Escape room kit: Consider purchasing a do-it-yourself escape room kit that your son can set up at home and share with friends or family members. These kits often include a range of puzzles and clues that need to be solved to unlock each stage of the room.

7. Mobile puzzle games: If your son enjoys playing on his phone or tablet, you can gift him a subscription or gift cards for puzzle-based mobile games. Look for popular titles like "The Room," "Myst," or "Lumino City" that offer immersive and challenging puzzles ideal for his interests.

Remember, the personal touch and thoughtful consideration are key when selecting a gift for someone who enjoys brain teasers. Tailor your choice to his specific tastes and interests in order to make it a truly meaningful present.

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.”
