If you are like me and either consider yourself a science geek or you’re surrounded by them (or both). These are some ideas that might have a bit of chemical attraction for the scientists in your life. This post contains affiliate links, you can read my full disclosure here.

Periodically Practical?

Periodic Table Gifts that have a practical use with a dash of whimsy are always a great choice.  I love water bottles and coffee mugs, who doesn’t?  The Ionic Bond one below is my favorite. Click on any of the images below for purchasing information.

Everyone loves a Chemistry Superhero.

Looking for something to wear?  I have been eyeing this shirt for my favorite superhero for a while.  It is the perfect mix of comic book and science. The lanyard might push it over the top.

Fun and Games with Chemistry Gifts.

Then there are the other fun ideas like games and puzzles. We have this Valence game and it is the best learning game I have ever purchased.  You don’t have to know chemistry to play, but it can be an amazing jumping off point in your study of chemistry (if you want it to be).  Puzzles have been a hit at my house since our first kiddo could put pieces together as a toddler.

If you have a chemistry nerd on your gift list, I don’t think you can miss with any of these periodic table gifts.  As a self-described science geek, I would happily open any of these gifts.
