You could try something that feeds his love for building and logic — like a Raspberry Pi starter kit, Arduino set, or a LEGO Technic/Robot Inventor kit if he enjoys hands-on projects.
Since he’s into coding, a fun beginner game development kit, a coding puzzle game, or a book on Python for teens could be awesome too.
For strategy, maybe a classic board game like Catan or Risk. And to make it more personal, you could toss in some
custom koozies with his name or a funny “future coder” design — a small but fun extra that makes the gift feel special!
