5 Gift Ideas for a Classical Homeschooler

Thanksgiving is over, which means it is officially the start of Christmas season! For this post, I wanted to include a list of gift ideas for the classical homeschooler in your life.  

1. Water bottle/laptop stickers

Almost every tween or teen has a water bottle or laptop that she decorates with stickers. If she’s in need of some new ones, this Redbubble shop has some great classical education-themed options. The shop is also Christian-based and has some beautiful Bible verse stickers.  

  

2. An inspiring book

I recently finished Do Hard Things by Alex and Brett Harris, and it was so good. I highly recommend it to any tween or teen who wants to do hard things for Christ. If he’s already read it, try one of the other books by these authors and their team!  

 

3. A good fiction book/book set

A Jane Austen or Lord of the Rings book set is likely to be popular if your homeschooler doesn’t have one already. Also, consider The Mysterious Benedict Society series for younger homeschoolers (or older ones too!). You can check out my favorite book list for more ideas by subscribing!  

 

4. A Planner

A planner is an essential part of a homeschooler’s day, but it can also be a super fun gift. See this post about my Happy Planner that I received for Christmas last year. There are a ton of wonderful options for your homeschooler to enjoy.  

5. Desk Decor

I spend a lot of time at my desk every day, so I want it to be something that I enjoy being at. A couple of years ago, I asked for a piece of plexiglass that was cut to fit over the top of my desk. Then I put a bunch of postcards and stickers on my desk and put the glass over them. Now I have a decorative tabletop for my desk instead of a plain white top, which is so much fun. I also love my peg board from Ikea for keeping photos, supplies, and cute quotes. It doesn’t have to be a new desk or an extravagant gift, but your homeschooler would likely be thankful for a study space update.
