Moms are special and should be celebrated year round! However, figuring out what to get Mom can be really tricky! Pretty much every list you will find, will include flowers or chocolates or jewelry but what if your Mom is more of a Geeky Mom and likes things that are a little off the wall? What then?
I am not one that likes “things”. In fact, I prefer to get no gift at all, but I know it can be fun to give gifts. While I was looking around at “mom” gifts today, I decided I wanted to round up the perfect collection of gifts for us off the wall “geeky moms”.

We’ve all seen the suburbans with the families stickered on the back window? But what about turning your family into Star Wars Characters?

Moms are pretty magical. Why not get the mom in your life a magical unicorn to hang on the wall, to remind her just how magical she is?

I know there are so many other things that any “geeky mom” would love to get but I thought these were a great start to spark your imagination. After all, mom is going to love anything from the children she loves!
What would you add to this list? Are you a geeky mom? Do you know a geeky mom? I would love to see what you would add!
*The term “geeky mom” has been used throughout this post in fun. I consider myself what others might call a “geek”, I own it and love it. I see it as a positive statement and mean no offense to anyone that might think otherwise 🙂 You have been warned…
Other Adventures in Geeky Things
What a great list!! I too am a geeky mom, though my kids aren’t old enough to buy me anything yet. My son usually makes something adorable at preschool, so that’s what I’m looking forward to. But I will definitely keep these ideas in mind for other gift suggestions in the future. Thanks for sharing an alternate to the typical list!
