Five Star Gift Ideas

For a son who loves doing jigsaw puzzles, there are plenty of thoughtful and engaging gift ideas that can further enhance his enjoyment and challenge. Here are a few suggestions for meaningful presents:

1. Custom Jigsaw Puzzle: Consider gifting your son a custom-made jigsaw puzzle featuring a memorable family photo or a picture of something he loves. Not only would this gift showcase his favorite image, but it will also provide him with a unique and sentimental puzzle-solving experience.

2. Puzzle Subscription Box: Subscription boxes are all the rage, and there are several puzzle-themed options available. These boxes provide a monthly delivery of curated puzzles, offering a continuous supply of challenges for your son to enjoy. Look for subscriptions that offer a variety of puzzle types, such as jigsaw puzzles, brain teasers, and 3D puzzles, ensuring a mix of enjoyment and brain-teasing challenges.

3. Puzzle Mat or Roll-Up Puzzle Mat: Puzzle enthusiasts understand the struggle of finding space to complete a puzzle, especially if it needs to be moved or stored midway through. A puzzle mat or roll-up puzzle mat is a fantastic gift idea as it allows your son to work on his puzzles wherever and whenever he wants. It can easily roll up to be stored without disturbing the assembled pieces, ensuring his progress remains intact.

4. Puzzle Organizer: Along with the puzzle mat, a puzzle organizer can add another layer of convenience to his favorite hobby. This organizing system can include sorting trays or boxes that allow him to categorize and separate puzzle pieces easily. With a puzzle organizer, your son can keep track of various puzzles simultaneously without mixing up the pieces.

5. Puzzle Board or Table: If your son often spends hours immersed in his jigsaw puzzles, consider investing in a puzzle board or table. These specially designed surfaces usually come with a built-in puzzle assembly area, often with a non-slip surface or raised edges to prevent pieces from falling off. This gift would offer him a dedicated space for puzzles, making it easier to work on larger and more complex designs.

6. Puzzle Books or Magazines: Expand your son's puzzle collection by gifting him puzzle books or magazines. Look for publications that offer a variety of puzzle types, including crosswords, Sudoku, word searches, cryptograms, and more. This way, he can enjoy a wider range of puzzles and challenge his mind in different ways.

Remember, the key to finding a meaningful gift is to consider your son's specific interests and preferences. With these puzzle-related gift ideas, you can demonstrate your understanding of his hobby while providing him with new challenges to enjoy in the coming year.

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

“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.”
