If you thought it was tricky to shop for your mother’s gift, try finding a present that piques the interest of a nerd. From dorky Lego sets to elegant board games, here are four unique gifts for the geek in your life.
Star Wars: Rebellion
There’s no better gift for a board game-loving Star Wars fan than Star Wars: Rebellion. This game allows two players to become the heroic Rebel Alliance and the evil Galactic Empire and rewrite the Skywalker Saga. This time around, it might be Princess Leia who gets frozen in Carbonite! After five years on the market, this game remains the eighth highest-ranked board game of all time, so you know it’s good!
Framed Fantasy Maps
If you live with a geek who appreciates the finer things, consider purchasing some artwork for them, namely in the form of a fantasy map. So many classics have incredible maps that a nerd would love on their wall, like Middle Earth and Westeros. A framed map classes up any dork den instantly and allows your loved one to retain their geek cred.
Lego Set From Their Favorite Movie
Lego has a set for almost every popular intellectual property from the last few decades. From Star Wars to Harry Potter to Batman to Spider-Man, Lego’s got you covered. If the geek you love has a special place in their heart for Jurassic Park, imagine the look on their face when they unwrap a 3,000-piece T-rex set.
E-Bike Conversion Kit
There are plenty of reasons to convert a bike to an e-bike, but perhaps the most exciting is this: it’s sure to get an indoor-person outside—a lot. The best way to convince someone who loves the creature comforts of their home to venture out is to offer the perfect mix: technology, excitement, and adventure.
You get all these things and more when you convert a regular old bicycle into an e-bike that can hit 25 miles per hour with no trouble.
Now that you know these four unique gifts for the geek in your life, brighten their holiday season and prepare to watch them geek out.
