Last year I published my first list of gifts for history buffs. Here are 20 more gift ideas for you to consider as you do your holiday shopping. You’ll find toys, games, puzzles, clothing, and even some fun kitchen items.
Plagues from History Plush Microbes
Revolutionary Playing Cards
Professor Noggin’s History of the US Card Game
History of Canadian Aviation 1000-piece Puzzle (see also The Romans, Elvis Nixon, and Rosetta Stone puzzles)
Industrial Revolution T-Shirt
Ptolemaic Watch
Rosetta Stone USB (or stress toy)
The Twelve Caesars Coin Set
Runes Gemstones Giftset
Art History Mug (or pillowcase)
Florence Nightingale Tea Towel (and many others via Present Indicative)
I’m astounded. How do you find all this great stuff?? They are all very cool.
Google!
These are all such good ideas – none of which I’ve seen before!
My 9-year-old just found a Leonardo da Vinci catapult kit at Value Village like the kit you included above. He was so excited because he “knew” Leonardo da Vinci. He bought it with his own money, even though it was $15. (I hate how Value Village prices things that look new…)
That’s a great story (except how Value Village can be surprisingly expensive) — I hope the kit works well!
