For your true crime enthusiast granddaughter, there are plenty of exciting gift options that can fuel her passion for documentaries and crime-solving. Here are a few ideas that she may find both meaningful and enjoyable:

1. True Crime Books: Consider gifting her some gripping true crime books written by skilled authors in the genre. From classic works like "In Cold Blood" by Truman Capote to contemporary bestsellers like "I'll Be Gone in the Dark" by Michelle McNamara, these books will engage her curiosity and provide endless hours of reading pleasure.

2. Crime Podcast Subscription: Help your granddaughter indulge in her fascination for true crime by gifting her a subscription to a popular true crime podcast. Podcasts like "Serial," "Criminal," or "My Favorite Murder" offer compelling stories, investigations, and analysis, keeping her engaged with her favorite genre while she's on the go.

3. Forensic Science Kit: If your granddaughter has an interest in the science behind crime-solving, a forensic science kit could be an excellent gift choice. These kits often include materials and instructions for conducting experiments related to fingerprints, DNA identification, and crime scene analysis, allowing her to dive deeper into the thrilling world of forensic science.

4. True Crime Documentary DVD Box Set: Collect some of the most gripping true crime documentaries and gift her a DVD box set. Look for renowned documentaries like "Making a Murderer," "The Jinx," or "The Staircase." These compelling series will not only satiate her true crime appetite but also provide her with a visual understanding of various criminal cases and investigations.

5. Online Sleuthing Course: There are several online platforms that offer introductory courses on criminal investigation and detective work. Enroll your granddaughter in one of these courses, allowing her to explore the techniques professionals use to solve crimes. It can be an educational and exciting experience, giving her a taste of what it's like to be a true crime investigator.

6. Crime Scene Puzzle: If your granddaughter also enjoys puzzles, consider getting her a crime scene puzzle. These unique puzzles depict crime scenes and require solving clues and piecing together evidence to solve the puzzle. It will not only engage her intellect but also provide a hands-on experience in crime-solving.

Remember, what sets a gift apart is the personal touch, so consider wrapping the gift with a note expressing your support for her interests and encouraging her pursuit of knowledge and curiosity. This will not only make the gift more meaningful but also show her that you understand her passions and appreciate her individuality.

Or you can get her a star map with the date when she was born.
