The air is crisping. The sun sets earlier. It’s that time of year. Cocoa. Falling leaves. Increasing panic as the holidays close in and you wrack your brain over what to get those special people in your life.

We’d love to say we’ve got you covered, at least on the geeks and nerds gift front, but giving gifts is a personal thing and all geeks are different. Geeking out is also often fandom-specific, which can make gift-buying particularly tricky.

Unfortunately, we can’t read geek minds. What we can do is stick to the basics.

Best Gifts For Geeks, Nerds & Awesome People

We’ve compiled a list of general geek stuff, tech gifts, and nerdy presents that should delight most any Brainiac in your life, minus the usual fandom merch.

1. Erector Set / Steel Works / K’NEX / Model architecture / 3-D Puzzles

We’ve listed these sets together because they all come back to the same general idea – building.

Yes, these gifts might appeal to a certain type of geek more than others, but there’s a lot of variety available in these products and most geeks can have some fun with them.

Playing with building sets like these has also been proven to be good for creativity, making this an ideal gift for those nerds in your life who need a regular shot of good old-fashioned inspiration.

2. A Globe

It’s true. Not all geeks like geography. Or travel. But even if the continents themselves aren’t a huge draw, globes make for some great geeky décor, and they are doing some cool things with globe design.

Like these levitating globes – the second one changes colors! and the last one is a cool, fancy globe!

Any of these would make a cool addition to a truly nerdy collection.

3. Wit’s End board game

Kind of like Trivial Pursuit with a more puzzle-y, riddle-y vibe, Wit’s End includes brainteasers across a range of categories from science to popular culture.

wit's end board game

Perfect for those who absorb random information, and those who always want to learn a little bit more.

Buy it at:

4. Tetris Brainteaser Cube

This one is a tad specific – it is Tetris-themed, after all – but a geek who doesn’t appreciate Tetris is not a geek worthy of the name.

Seriously, though, one doesn’t have to be a Tetris fan to appreciate this particular Tetris product. It’s basically just a fidget toy to pass idle time.

You can also find a cheap, unbranded version at Walmart

5. Fandom Sign Post Wall Decal

Okay, for this one you do have to know some of your geek’s favorite fandoms, but it’s just so cool, we couldn’t pass it up.

A sign post decal with multiple signs pointing to different fantasy/gaming/sci-fi worlds. (Or, I suppose, to Poughkeepsie if you really want since it is customizable.)

This is an ideal gift if the geek you’re buying for has a lot of favorite fandoms, and you’re having a hard time narrowing it down.

Plus, it just looks really freakin’ cool.

6. Geek Socks For Nerdy Feet

Sure they’re basic, but that’s kind of the point. I mean, who doesn’t need more socks? Especially if they’re awesome socks.

Circuit boards, science, the ankle’s the limit. Probably ought to leave the full-on “Geek” socks for the geek in your life who wears their nerdiness like a badge of honor. But these are cheap geek gifts with actual utility, so even if they hate the design, your giftees will have warmer feet.

8. Gadget Bag For Nerdy Holdings

Fact: All geeks have gadgets. They might be gaming gadgets, or cell phone gadgets, or photography gadgets, but geeks definitely possess gadgets of some sort.

Help them organize their nerdiest toys with just the right gadget bag. Like these ones that have all the space for all the things –

9. Euler’s Disk

You don’t have to be the biggest nerd on the block to appreciate the Euler’s Disk.

Once spun, this thing just keeps on spinning and spinning. Technically, it’s physics, meaning science nerds will dig it most.

Toysmith Euler's Disk

But it looks cool even if you don’t care how it works.

Buy it at:

10. Solar System Crystal Ball

A solar system crystal ball is just what it sounds like – the entirety of the Milky Way inside a glass globe. Just to look at. Because it looks awesome.

Like the Euler’s Disk, science nerds (in this case astronomy buffs) might be the most stoked to receive this, but it’s a nerdy Christmas or winter holiday gift with mass geek appeal.

11. Desktop Tesla Coil

Tesla was doing wireless before wireless was cool. And a miniature Tesla coil captures the essence of that technology in a home-friendly size, using different mediums.

Some use music. Some make lightning. All make an impression.

12. Multifunction pen

It’s not particularly novel, but it could be used to write a novel. Ba-dum ching.

For real, though, a multifunction pen has utility for just about anyone. Like this one that has four different ink colors, plus a mechanical pencil, a.k.a. the perfect gift for a teacher –

13. Space Pen – It’s Out Of This World!

It’s just a pen. Yeah, but designed to use in space!

What that means here on Earth is that this pen writes in any position, no matter how awkward.

The perfect gift for those who like to do their note taking upside-down.

Buy at:

14. Playable Art

When it comes to geek décor, once you step outside fandoms the pickings are slim.

Playable artworks are one exception to this. These sleek wooden designs look good AND provide an element of fun.

You can get them in color or in neutral for the more staid office environment at Amazon or Walmart.

15. Magazine subscription

If you know your geek well enough to know their general areas of interest, it’s hard to go wrong with a magazine subscription (assuming they’re unsubscribed, of course).

Not only does it keep giving all year, but your giftee is sure to find something of interest inside.

17. External digital storage

For any geek with a creative hobby, gamers, or those who just buy their media in digital format, extra gigabytes are always a welcome thing. And they come in a variety of styles.

Like this rugged external hard drive. –

18. Headlamp / LED beanie

Can you think of anything geekier to put on your body than a headlamp? I mean, they’re iconic sci-fi wear.

Egon wears one in Ghostbusters. Lindsey wears one inThe Abyss (she’s scuba diving, but still). Even Copernicus the dog wears one in Back to the Future.

Plus, headlamps are useful for doing everything from putting together model cars to walking in the woods at night, giving them appeal to a wide range of nerd types.

This one’s extra bright and durable for outdoorsy nerds. – (buy it at REI)

They’re a generic go-to gift for sure, but they’re also a great go-to gift if your geek doesn’t have any.

From birds to concerts, there’s surely something your giftee would like to have a closer look at.

And you can get them basic and inexpensive. –

25. Ergonomic Kneeling Chair

For those of us geeks who spend a lot of time at our computers, a good chair is perfection.

While a gaming chair might be the choice gift for a gamer, it doesn’t change things up the way this chair does.

Providing a completely different way of holding the body, an ergonomic kneeling chair supports good posture and eases pressure on the back.

Even those who don’t use it all the time will find it a swell alternative to keep on hand. This second one rocks!

26. Origami

Origami may be a specific art style, and therefore appeal mostly to artist geeks, but it comes in a ton of variations.

There are galaxies, airplanes, dinosaurs, geometric shapes, even Star Wars and Harry Potter versions, so it’s not necessarily just one thing.

And nerds like to make things. (See building toys above.) Origami for beginners  and cool Japanese designs are a great place to start.

28. Something nostalgic

Chances are, if they liked it when they were young, they’ll probably like it now.

At least in a good memory, nostalgia sort of way.

If you can think of something your geek loved when they were younger, look for something similar.

Pssst. Second-hand comic stores and eBay are the places to look.

29. List Journal

For the introspective geek. A list journal helps a person get to the bottom of themselves.

Or just to catalog who they are and what they’re into at a particular point in time.

It’s kind of like a journal with prompts.

The first one has a list day for three years. The next one has cute art.

This first one lets your geek see what’s inside. This other one’s got a more old-school vibe.

33. Tak / Quoridor Game

For those who love strategy games. Tak and Quoridor are both board games that require critical thinking, but have simple gameplay.

More like chess or checkers.

Less like many of today’s multi-card, multi-move games. Not that there’s anything wrong with those.

But sometimes simple is good.

Again with the gadgets. Those who have them must have a way to charge them.

Even better if that means of charging does something else useful.

So, here’s a wireless charger that’s also a desk lamp. This bedside lamp is both charger and Bluetooth speaker.  And this Himalayan salt lamp cleans the air while it charges.

And there are some super nerdy ones being made. You can find light switch plate designs for Zelda, Harry Potter, Minecraft, Pokemon, and more.

But to keep this list generalized geek, here’s a light switch cover that looks like a lever. And here’s a mad scientist-style throw switch.
