Five Star Gift Ideas

For a son who loves writing and blogging, there are plenty of meaningful and personal gift ideas that can both encourage and enhance his passion. Here are a few suggestions:

1. Personalized Writing Journal: A high-quality personalized journal with his name or initials on the cover can inspire him to jot down his thoughts, ideas, and writing goals. Opt for one with blank pages or prompts related to his interests to keep him motivated and engaged.

2. Writing Course or Workshop: Consider enrolling your son in a writing course or workshop, either online or in person, to further develop his writing skills. Look for options tailored to his specific interests, such as creative writing, journalism, or blogging. This gift not only supports his hobby but also provides him with a structured learning environment and potential networking opportunities.

3. Digital Subscription: A subscription to a reliable online writing platform or blogging platform, such as Medium or WordPress, can give your son a platform to share his writing with a larger audience. It provides exposure, feedback, and opportunities to connect with like-minded individuals. Plus, it encourages him to consistently produce content and work on his writing skills.

4. Writing Tools and Accessories: Enhance his writing experience with high-quality pens, a comfortable ergonomic keyboard, or a stylish laptop sleeve. Thoughtful accessories like a notepad set, sticky notes in various shapes and sizes, and a desk organizer can also make his writing process more organized and enjoyable.

5. Books on Writing: Inspire your son with books that offer guidance, techniques, and tips on writing and blogging. Consider gifting him classics like "On Writing" by Stephen King or "The Elements of Style" by William Strunk Jr. and E.B. White. Alternatively, choose books that explore different genres or areas of interest to expand his horizons and spark creativity.

6. Blogging Essentials: Help your son take his blogging to the next level by gifting him a professional microphone for high-quality podcasting or YouTube videos, a portable tripod for vlogging, or a professional photo editing software subscription. These tools can enhance the quality of his content and help him attract a larger audience.

7. Inspirational Wall Art: Surround your son with inspirational quotes and visual reminders of his writing goals with motivational wall art. Look for prints featuring famous writers or inspiring phrases. You can even have a custom-made piece with one of his own quotes or favorite writing-related sayings.

Remember, the most meaningful gift is one that shows you support and appreciate his passion for writing. Tailor your choice to his specific interests and preferences, and you'll undoubtedly make his Christmas memorable and special.

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.”
