It’s certain that offering endless play time for your child will undoubtedly be an excellent gift idea! But let’s be real, it’s a poisoned chalice!
In this article, I give you some ideas that you might not have thought of, at different budgets.
Decorative items
If you like do-it-yourself projects, it may be interesting to combine his passion for games and your manual interests to suggest a new decor to make together for his bedroom or living room. gaming. Color LED lights are very popular with gamers. Just like the Funko Pop figurines from their favorite universe. Keep in the box for added value!

There are miniature versions of old consoles that provide access to over a hundred games! It could be a great gift to share moments where you can show that you can handle a controller too!
Classic computer parts
Well, here I must admit that it’s easy to get lost because there are so many parts that you can buy to improve the performance of your child’s computer! But also see it as a gateway to dialogue and an assembly and disassembly project to do with him. There are several tutorials for making these projects yourself online. Use your child’s skills and interests to create that connection.
Ergonomic equipment
THE gamers who spend many hours playing may develop some physical pain. It may be interesting to shop for ergonomic accessories and equipment: chair, keyboard, mouse, screen support, foot rest, etc. It might not be as exciting as a card full of V-Bucks, but it will be better for his body!
Livres
What is very popular among our mentees at Gamer Mentor are anime and manga, this may be the case for your gamer too! Don’t hesitate to ask him if this is the kind of content he consumes and who his favorite characters are. He might be surprised to have this conversation with you!
Anger management
Last suggestion: if your child has a tendency to break equipment, a few years ago, one of our mentors bought a foam controller on which he could let off steam during bad games! Very useful for saving equipment (and walls!).
Happy Holiday Shopping!
