Five Star Gift Ideas

If your son enjoys writing poetry, there are plenty of meaningful and personal gift ideas that can encourage his passion and further nurture his creativity. Here are a few suggestions to consider for a Christmas gift:

1. Poetry Books: Look for collections by renowned poets or an anthology featuring a variety of styles and themes. This will not only inspire and educate your son but also provide him with different perspectives and writing techniques.

2. Writing Journals: A stylish journal dedicated solely to poetry can be a great gift for your son. Choose a design that resonates with his personality or opt for a customizable journal to add a personal touch. This way, he can pen down his thoughts, ideas, and lines of poetry whenever inspiration strikes.

3. Writing Workshops or Courses: Consider enrolling your son in a poetry writing workshop or course. This will allow him to learn from experienced poets, share his work with other aspiring writers, and gain valuable feedback and critiques.

4. Poetry Slam Tickets: Many cities have open mic nights or poetry slam events where local poets can perform their work. Gifting your son tickets to such events will not only expose him to the vibrant poetry community but also inspire him to share his own work in the future.

5. Poetic Calendar: Find a calendar that features quotes or poems by different poets for each month. This gift will not only keep your son organized but also provide him with daily doses of inspiration.

6. Personalized Stationery: A set of personalized stationery with your son's name or initials embossed can be a thoughtful gift. He can use it to write his poetry or send handwritten letters to friends and loved ones, which adds a touch of nostalgia in this digital era.

7. Poetry-themed Jewelry: Consider gifting your son poetry-themed jewelry pieces, such as a necklace or bracelet with a quote or symbol that resonates with his love for writing. This accessory can serve as a constant reminder of his passion and creativity.

8. Online Subscriptions: Sign your son up for a subscription to a poetry magazine or a literary journal. This way, he can stay updated with new trends in poetry, discover emerging poets, and perhaps even submit his own work for publication.

Remember, the most important thing is to show your support and appreciation for your son's interests. By giving him a gift that nurtures his love for writing poetry, you are not only encouraging his creativity but also acknowledging his talents.

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.”
