We’ve gathered everything in this holiday gifting guide from the usual stuff like gaming mice and gaming keyboards to things you wouldn’t even think of like adorable keycaps and comfy gaming chair head pillows. And, they’re affordable as well, which makes some of them terrific stocking stuffers too, rounding out your holiday presents this year quite nicely.
Kids love playing on smartphones and tablets just as much as they do on consoles and PCs, which makes this gaming headset from Logitech a terrific and versatile option for them. The Logitech G435 wireless headset offers both Lightspeed wireless and Bluetooth connectivity so they can pretty much connect it to any gaming device. Plus, it’s perfect for kids with a form factor that’s lightweight, optimized for smaller heads, and three fun colorways. It’s also a carbon-neutral product, which we’re sure is a relief for parents concerned about their family’s carbon footprint this holiday season.
Let your young PC gamers take their PC gaming to the next level with this made-for-pros gaming keyboard from Logitech. Whether or not they love playing League of Legends, this special edition Logitech G Pro mechanical keyboard is a tournament-grade peripheral complete with satisfying tactile feedback, Lightsync RGB, and three levels of feet adjustments for their ultimate comfort. Of course, if they do love MOBA titles, they’ll also appreciate the 12 programmable F-keys. And, anybody can appreciate its compact TKL form factor, just the ticket for smaller desk setups. Plus, it’s just really cool and funky looking.
The Razer Orochi V2 proves that great things can come in small packages ideal for kids’ smaller hands. This gaming mouse is among our top small gaming mice picks, but it’s got regular-sized gaming mouse performance with up to 18,000 DPI and up to 950 hours of battery life. It’s even more versatile than most of them. The kids won’t have to pick between USB wireless connectivity or Bluetooth as it has both. Neither do they need to with the power source as it takes both AA and AAA batteries. Customize its design on the Razer website to truly make it the perfect gift for your kid.
Have Pokemon lovers in the family? Then spruce up their gaming keyboard with one (or all) of these Pokemon artisan keycaps from The Kapco. These impossibly adorable mini accessories in the shape of their favorite Pokemon’s back – cute tail and all – are the perfect stocking stuffers, and just the ticket to perk up a traditional boring mechanical keyboard. They’re made of resin and are anodized so those colors will last. And, they’ll fit most keyboards with a traditional Cherry keycap profile. Every keycap also comes inside a Pokeball, which should be a thrill for them to find inside their stocking.
If you’ve got a mobile console gamer in your life, they’ll appreciate a brand new skin for their Nintendo Switch this Christmas. The spring vibes on this eXtremeRate Pink Sakura Petals backplate and controller housing might just be the perfect gaming companion that should get them through spring, especially when they’ve got that new Happy Home Paradise DLC for Animal Crossing: New Horizons.
The younger gamers in your family who play less demanding, kid-friendly titles won’t need a super-fast gaming keyboard and gaming mouse. But, they’ll certainly appreciate the vibrant colorways that Logitech’s new Pop series peripherals come in. Not only do they have a fun, attractive design, but Logitech Pop Keys are very responsive and comfortable to use. Meanwhile, the Pop Mouse is very quiet to help keep the noise down when they’re gaming. For that extra bit of fun, both peripherals have emoji shortcut keys because we all know they’re essentially the main mode of communication for kids.
Animal-loving gamers might appreciate an animal-themed setup, and this popular gaming headset from Razer is a good place to start. That’s especially because the Razer Kraken is a terrific entry- to mid-level gaming headset that delivers good sound quality and great comfort as well as Stream Reactive Lighting. Of course, those RGB-lit kitty ears are a clever addition, making an otherwise-normal looking headset into one of the most unique and eye-catching you’ll ever find. It also comes in a pink color if your kid prefers that over black. For a cleaner and neater setup, get them the wireless Razer Kraken BT Kitty Edition, which is lighter and cheaper.
We adore these tactile switches from The Key Dot Co, and so will the gamers in the family that prefer colors to solid black. Each switch in this colorway comes with a mint-colored top housing and a yellow-colored bottom housing, as well as a pink stem – just the ticket for pastel fans. And, it delivers a very satisfying bounce when pressed. For each purchase, you’re only getting a set of 25 switches. So, depending on the gaming keyboard your kid has, you’ll want to buy three or more sets.
Although certainly adult-approved, DXRacer’s Air line of gaming chairs is just the gaming chair your kids will love. The DXRacer AIR D7100 and D7200 chairs, in particular, are very affordable and come in different attractive colors including pink and gray for the D7100 and yellow, red and blue for the D7200. As far as gaming chairs go, they’re also very easy to set up – so much so that we’re confident the older kids can do it without your supervision – and they don’t take up too much space. They’re also incredibly modular if the kids want to save up and expand later with a cup holder, a footrest, and even a multi-functional mouse for all their other devices.
Speaking of staying sustainable this holiday season, give your little gamers the proper support during their gaming sessions while also supporting conservation. Part of the Razer Sneki Snek conservation effort with Conservation International, the Razer Sneki Snek Head Pillow will support your kid’s neck and head when gaming and allow you to support this save-one-million-trees initiative. That’s because for every Sneki Snek product you purchase, you’re saving 10 trees, which means the more of them you buy, the more trees you’re saving. It’s a good thing that besides this gaming chair head pillow, Razer’s got other things like hoodies, keycaps, and even comfy winter slippers.
