Five Star Gift Ideas

For your son who enjoys learning to juggle or mastering card tricks, there are several gift ideas that can fuel his interests and help him further develop his skills. Here are a few options to consider:

1. Juggling Set: A juggling set can be a fantastic gift for your son. Look for a set that includes juggling balls of different weights, as well as a step-by-step instructional guide on how to juggle. This will provide him with the necessary tools to learn and practice various juggling techniques.

2. Card Magic Kit: To support your son's interest in mastering card tricks, consider getting him a card magic kit. These kits typically include a variety of cards, along with instructional books or DVDs that guide him through different card tricks. This will allow him to expand his repertoire of card tricks and enhance his overall performance.

3. Online Courses: Another option is to gift your son online courses focused on juggling or card magic. Many websites offer detailed and comprehensive video tutorials that can be accessed from the comfort of home. With a subscription to these courses, your son can learn at his own pace and gain valuable insights from professional jugglers or magicians.

4. Books on Juggling or Card Magic: Books can be a valuable resource for learning and mastering new skills. Look for books that specifically cater to your son's interests, such as "Juggling for the Complete Klutz" by John Cassidy or "Expert Card Technique" by Jean Hugard and Frederick Braue. These books will provide him with detailed explanations, tips, and tricks to complement his practice.

5. Performance Tools: Enhance your son's performance by gifting him tools that add flair to his juggling or card tricks. For juggling, consider LED juggling balls or glow-in-the-dark clubs that will mesmerize the audience during evening shows. For card tricks, a special deck of cards, like a marked deck or a deck with unique designs, can add an extra element of surprise and intrigue.

6. Tickets to Magic or Circus Shows: Give your son the opportunity to witness professional performers in action by getting him tickets to magic or circus shows. Watching skilled jugglers or magicians on stage can inspire him, ignite his creativity, and motivate him to further develop his craft.

Remember, the best gift is one that supports and encourages your son's interests. By selecting a meaningful gift that aligns with his passion for juggling or card tricks, you'll not only provide him with the tools and resources he needs, but also show that you appreciate and support his hobbies.

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.”
