Sci-Fi Magnetic Poetry Kit

I love my magnetic poetry kit. The kids do too, but I don’t let them play with it without supervision anymore because I got sick of finding little word tabs around the house or down the back of the lounge! Matter of fact, we’ve had drinks with friends and pulled it out then as well.

See?

Poetry over drinks.

Amazing what a bit of lubrication can do for creativity!

So if you’d like to do the same this Sci-Fi might be an option. Additional words – to keep with the theme –  include, spaceship, interstellar, android, universe, explore and more.

I’m Just Here For the Free Wifi T-shirt

If you’re prepared to advertise what many of us are – generally – reluctant to admit, this T-shirt is for you! I like the regal blue colour.

Weeping Angel Cupcake Wrappers

This very cute etsy store has all sorts of wrapper designs to choose from. I picked the Weeping Angels one because they’re quite scary – although they’d need to be even scarier to keep me away from cupcakes! Poor Riley is terrified of Weeping Angels so I don’t think he’d be too keen. But as a novelty, I think they’re great!

Superhero Caped Socks

Having a hard week? Popping on these Superman socks might help bolster your energy levels or stamina to get through. (Ladies, there’s some cute Wonder Woman socks if you want to click through and have a look.)

‘Sherlock, Doctor Who or Food’ T-shirt

Tell me you don’t know a person who would be a perfect personality fit for this T-shirt. And, actually, think about it – what a way to live. Steve Moffat fans, in particular, will enjoy.

Personalised Superhero Print

Probably my favourite of the picks, this stylist, understated print would look great on a wall. If you don’t like the red there are other colour options, but you will have to frame the print yourself.

(Confession: I did have to google ‘Metamorpho’ to see who he was.)

 

Which one of these is your favourite? What other ‘geek’ style presents are around this year?
