Five Star Gift Ideas

Puzzle-solving is a great hobby to have, and it’s even better when it can be used as a source of entertainment and mental stimulation in our later years. Since your grandpa loves puzzles, here are some meaningful and personalized ideas you could explore for his upcoming birthday.

1. A Puzzle Gift Basket:
Instead of gifting him just one puzzle, you can create a puzzle-themed basket with a variety of puzzle-solving games. You could include crossword puzzle books, Sudoku puzzles, handheld Rubik’s cube puzzles, jigsaw puzzles of different difficulty levels along with his favourite snacks, and coffee or tea.

2. Custom-made Puzzle:
If you want to get a unique and personalized puzzle, there are lot of websites like Artifact puzzles, Citizen brick and more where you can upload your grandpa's favourite photo and they will create a one-of-a-kind puzzle from that picture.

3. Puzzle Tables:
To make puzzle-solving more comfortable and easy on the eyes, consider gifting your grandpa a puzzle table. These tables have special surfaces that can be titled to an angle that suits his eyesight needs. There are different models available with drawers or compartments to keep the pieces organized.

4. Puzzle Journals:
Your grandpa might love the challenge of a good puzzle, but he also might enjoy seeing his progress and improvement over time. A puzzle journal can help track the various types of puzzle games he solves and gives him a way to document his triumphs and setbacks.

5. Puzzle Subscription Box:
There are plenty of puzzle subscription boxes available, and some of them offer a monthly delivery of new puzzle games, with the difficulty level ranging from easy to difficult. You could gift him a subscription for a few months so that he can enjoy new puzzles on a regular basis.

6. Puzzle-themed T-shirts:
If your grandpa is enthusiastic about puzzles, then he might enjoy showing it off with graphic T-shirts with puzzle themes. There are various options available to choose from based on his preferences.

7. Puzzle Museum:
Some cities have museums with interactive collections, such as the Museum of Games and Puzzles in Beverly Hills, California. Your grandpa might enjoy a visit to a puzzle museum to explore different puzzles and games and learn about their history.

Remember, the most important thing is to show your grandpa that you care, and that you are thinking of him. With a thoughtful, puzzle-themed gift, he will have another reason to appreciate your kind gesture.

Or you can get him a star map with the date when he was born.
