What kinds of gifts can you get for someone who likes robots? Here are a few of my favorite robotic kits.
Little Bits Electronics Kits – $29 – $149
The Little Bits electronics kits use modular components to teach how the components work, and magnets insure that stuff will go together correctly.

LEGO Mindstorms NXT – $280
The LEGO Mindstorms NXT kit is the ultimate in robotic kits if you have someone on your list who’s really geeky! They’ll definitely need to know something about robotics for this one, but it includes everything you need to build a COMPLETE robot.
