A games night with friends, fun gadgets on your desk or an evening tinkering with a new model kit: everyone has something that cheers them up. We all need a bit of fun now and then, which is exactly why unusual gifts go down so well. With good games, model kits and the occasional prank, everything is simply more fun. If that's what you're after, you've come to the right place: from games and toys to stationery that's a little bit different.
Games, toys and pranks, but nerdy
Anyone who says board games aren't a fun way to spend an evening has simply never tried the right one. With so much choice it's easy to lose track, especially when it comes to nerdy games and quizzes that let you show off your knowledge. And even the liveliest games night gets dull if you always bring out the same five boxes. If you fancy trying something new, you'll find board games, puzzles and other nerdy toys here, and for the youngest there are our gifts for kids.
Model kits and fun science gadgets
Building things and tinkering are firmly on many nerds' list of hobbies. Assembling figures and models is genuinely relaxing, and the results usually look great. Not everyone wants to build their desk décor first, though, so we also have ready-made gadgets to put down and enjoy, and fun science gadgets that combine a love of science with a healthy dose of fun.
