If you have a miniature geek at home, then you might want to get them a gift that expands their mind a bit.  This Optical Science And Art Kit is one way to keep them learning and keep them being the geek you know and love.  This kit applies to physics, psychology and art.  All around giving them a wide range of knowledge just from one little kit.  Plus it’ll keep them tinkering with something they should be, instead of anything of yours.

The kit is meant for kids ranging in age from 7-13 years old.  I’m sure that it’ll appeal to some kids above 13 though, say a 30-some year old kid.  Don’t worry, if you play with the kit with your kid it qualifies as quality time.  Not as time you’re avoiding work and playing with kids toys.  The kit has optical illusions involving shapes, color, depth and scale.  Then there are various things they can build including pinhole glasses and camera obscura.  You can purchase the kit for $34.95 through Think Geek.

The AIAIAI Tracks Series Leather Headphones

If you remember your old Walkman headphones fondly, then you’ll be happy to see a series of leather headphones that were inspired by them.  In both function and design they were made to mimic that classic set of headphones.  Plus you’ll have a leather set of headphones, which makes them not only vintage, but a touch more luxurious.

These were made by a Danish company.  AIAIAI and Kilo Design actually teamed up to create the Tracks Series of leather headphones.  The headphones themselves feature 40mm driver units, a 23 Ohm of speaker impedance, 3.5 mm stereo plug and a 112 +/- 3dB of sensitivity.  Plus they have an incredibly lightweight frame making them even more comfortable to wear.  They aren’t out just yet though, they’ll be available in 2010.  Once it gets closer to the release date, hopefully they’ll give a bit more info on the pricing.

Lego Mouse may not be ergonomic

Alright, we all know you don’t just grow out of your love of Legos.  You might as well quit trying to be a closet Lego lover and broadcast it to the whole world.  It’s not your fault that it’s the greatest toy ever created and it’s still incredibly appealing to grown ups.  With this mouse everyone will know where you stand on playing with kids toys no matter what your age.

This Lego mouse probably isn’t something that’s remotely ergonomic, but its sheer amount of awesomeness makes up for that.  The mouse has all the usual buttons including the left and right buttons as well as having a scroll wheel.  It hooks up through your USB port to either your PC or Mac.  The optical mouse only comes in bright red, so hopefully that’s the color you wanted.  You can purchase the mouse for $31.96 from Curiosite.
