Get any gadgets for Christmas?

Greetings of the season!

While I didn't get any gadget loot this year, I am thankful for my loved ones who gave me:

• Steve Jobs by Walter Isaacson
• 50 Architecture Ideas You Really Need to Know
• Sneaky Uses for Everyday Things

My son got a solar robotics kit and a Logiblocs Super Inventor Kit. We got our daughter a mineral exploration kit and we had fun digging semi-precious stones out of a block of plaster. She also got The Lego Ideas Book.
