Selecting a gift can be difficult, even stressful. The the economy, environment, and oil dependency are important issues now, so why not give a gift that saves energy and saves money? There's tons of energy conserving devices and appliances. But which make good Christmas gifts? Perhaps the best are those that become do-it-yourself projects. Digging through Amazon.com, it turns out lots of people have put energy-saving items on their wish list! These include tools for sniffing out energy waste, even large solar electricity kits. These are great gifts for guys. Most are part of cool home improvement projects. Remember, "happiness researchers" have found that an experience is more rewarding than a possession.

And thinking about experiences, how about Christmas gifts for kids that they'll play with for years? Not just video games, but toys that get their heads and hands working together to learn about the real world. Many of the vintage toys that taught the personal computer and internet innovators are still available. With patents and trademarks expired, quality copies are available at very reasonable prices. And they're still really fun for younger kids. There's also innumerable entertaining educational CDs and DVDs at very reasonable prices. Some toys, such as Legos, are used by kids from kindergarten through college. Even very young children have strong preferences and dislikes, so bounce gift ideas off their parents. And of course, be sure to check for listed minimum ages and especially safety hazards and warnings.

Amazon Shops are a source of good gift ideas. An AmazonShop is a group of products selected, usually by an individual or small business. A good Shop has carefully selected items, sort of "pre-comparison-shopping" on a particular topic or audience. Like a local shop that carries major (and minor) brands and knows it's neighborhood. A good aShop winnows down the choices, finding the best gifts and best values, saving you from the "paralysis of choice" from {repeated word} too many choices. For more Christmas present ideas and gift recommendations, visit the Greenish and Geekish Gift Shop at ggGifts.weebly.com

By thinking creatively, you can find unique gift ideas that are great values that entertain, educate, and save money for years to come. And a lot more meaningful than a gift card. They'll love that, you'll love that.
