Five Star Gift Ideas

For your daughter who loves speedcubing, you can consider giving her a gift that will enhance her hobby and further ignite her passion for solving Rubik's cubes. Here are a few ideas that she will surely appreciate:

1. Speedcubing Set: Invest in a complete speedcubing set that includes different types of Rubik's cubes, such as 2x2, 3x3, 4x4, and even larger cubes like 5x5 or Pyraminx. This will not only allow her to broaden her range of puzzles but also help her improve her solving skills on different cube variations.

2. Customized Speedcube: Get her a personalized speedcube engraved with her name or a special message. Several online platforms offer customized speedcubes where you can select different colors, stickers, and even add text or images. This will make the cube uniquely hers and show how much thought you put into the gift.

3. Speedcubing Timer: A dedicated timer designed specifically for speedcubing can be an excellent gift. These timers track solving times accurately, allowing your daughter to measure and improve her speed over time. Look for a timer that includes various features like display options, average solving time calculation, and the ability to connect it to a computer for analyzing solving data.

4. Speedcubing Tutorial Books: Help your daughter enhance her technique and learn advanced solving methods with instructional books on speedcubing. There are many books available that provide step-by-step guides for various solving methods, algorithms, and tips and tricks to solve Rubik's cubes faster. These resources will enable her to take her speedcubing skills to the next level.

5. Competition Registration: If your daughter is passionate about speedcubing, consider gifting her the opportunity to participate in a local or national speedcubing competition. Registering her for a competition will not only give her the chance to compete with other cubers but also provide an opportunity to meet fellow enthusiasts and engage in a supportive community.

6. Speedcubing Accessories: Consider buying accessories that can complement her speedcubing experience. This can include a cube lubricant to make the cubes smoother and faster, a cube stand to hold and display her collection, replacement stickers, or a cube bag to keep her cubes organized and protected when on the go.

7. Puzzle-solving Apps: Explore different speedcubing apps available on smartphones or tablets. These apps offer virtual Rubik's cube simulations, puzzle challenges, and tutorials; they can be a convenient and portable alternative for practicing speedcubing when a physical cube is not accessible.

8. Speedcubing Workshop or Class: If there are local speedcubing workshops or classes in your area, consider enrolling your daughter to further enhance her skills. These events often provide hands-on training, insights from expert cubers, and a chance to meet other enthusiasts.

Remember, the most meaningful gift for your daughter will be one that shows your support for her passion and dedication to speedcubing. By considering her interests and selecting a gift that aligns with her hobby, you will undoubtedly make her Christmas extra special.

Or you can get her a star map with an important date you share.
