Top education-themed gifts for Christmas!

Blog/Article

Gifting during the holiday season is a great opportunity to give a loved one a gift that can make a real impact on their educational journey. But with so many options out there, choosing the right present can be hard.

To give you some inspiration during this holiday and Christmas season, here are some of our top, Education-themed gifting ideas – courtesy of our Lenovo EDU staff!

 

Matt Stadler, Content Strategist: Lenovo Tab M10 Plus

If there’s anyone else out there with a toddler running around who’s obsessed with Ms. Rachel on YouTube, I have the perfect gift. The Tab M10 Plus is perfect because you can give it to your child, but really you’re the one benefiting as a parent. With parental controls and Google Kids Space preloaded on the tablet, you have the peace of mind knowing that you can control what your child has access to and for how long they can have screen time.

The content also grows with your child so they can watch educational videos when they’re younger and use the same tablet to read books when they’re older.  Pair the Tab M10 Plus with a folio case and you’re all set for easy viewing angles and added security for when your kid drops it (and let’s face it, that will happen a lot). It’s also got great battery life that can last all day and has saved me from a few headaches with long travel days. All of this at a price that doesn’t break the bank so you don’t mind as much if your little angel accidentally spills a full carton of milk on it. (not like THAT would ever happen…)


Daniel Cox, UK/ANZ Community Manager: Curiosity Stream + Nebula Online Video Subscription

Are you the inquisitive type who loves to learn (well of course you are – you’re an Lenovo EDU Member!)? Then this Curiosity Stream + Nebula bundle could be perfect for you. 

Curiosity Stream and Nebula are independent video stream services that specialise in producing fascinating, original documentary content. Both have a huge library of video documentaries on subjects ranging from space exploration to the history of pirates. I’ve been a subscriber for months now and have been impressed by the quality and quantity of the fascinating documentaries that these platforms provide – I’d heartily recommend Curiosity Stream’s ‘Destination: Moon’ series. Each platform also has dedicated kids sections for content designed for younger inquisitive minds.

But best of all, If you’re looking to expand your talents or even learn a new skill, both offer video classes on a wide variety of subjects. Ever wanted to study professional film criticism? Or perhaps you’re just looking to improve your study skills? There’s a class for that.

Technically, you can subscribe to both Curiosity Stream and Nebula separately, but there’s plenty of great value subscription packages that bundle both platforms together - there are even gift subscription options. Receive. If you (or someone you know) are yearning to learn more about the world and beyond, check this out!

 

Jessica Tomlinson, NA eComm Segment Manger: Lenovo 15.6 inch Portable Monitor - L15

I'm a self-proclaimed multi-screen fanatic.  Whether I’m in the office or at home I have 2 monitors + my laptop for a total of 3 screens.  But sometimes, life throws you a curveball. Like the time my home office had a water leak and my beloved monitors were banished to the land of drying machines. I was forced to set up a temporary workspace in my husband's office. Enter the Lenovo L15 Portable Monitor. This little lifesaver was a godsend. It was easy to connect via USB C, and it even had power pass-through so I could charge my laptop and the monitor at the same time. The Full HD anti-glare display was crystal clear, and I could easily pivot the monitor from landscape to portrait mode to save space.  But what I really love about the Lenovo L15 is how portable it is. It's so lightweight and slim that I can easily slip it into my bag and take it with me wherever I go. Whether I am working from home, at a coffee shop, or even from a cabin the woods, I always have an extra screen to work on.  It's allowed me to stay productive no matter where I am, and it's made working from anywhere a breeze. If you're looking for a portable monitor that's easy to use, looks great, and won't break the bank, I highly recommend the Lenovo L15.

 

Ben Green, Senior US Community Manager: Legion Go

 Did you know the Legion Go isn't just a gaming handheld, but also a full-fledged Windows PC? You can connect any Bluetooth mouse/keyboard to it, plug in a monitor, or even cast it wirelessly to an external display. Swap the right controller into a mouse in FPS mode, or take both controllers off and use the center screen unit as a standalone tablet! It's the perfect tool for student gamers looking for a powerful portable device, with support for everything from Starfield to Word to Photoshop. Highly recommend checking this one out!
