I’m not Rachel of course, but my husband and I play dnd. Hot Topic currently has DnD tshirts including ones licensed by Critical Role (which he might watch). Kraken Dice are a good gift and there’s lots of options on their site. Also Etsy has lots of neat dice. If you’re willing to spend a good bit a 3D printer is a great gift. My husband prints his own characters, monsters, walls, etc with his!

There are some small businesses that make great dice rolling trays, “dice jails” (yes, sometimes we punish our dice for rolling crappy), and other accessories that help you keep track of small pieces. (I have been playing RPGs for 40 years.). If there’s a game shop he frequents and they know him, go there and talk to them. They’ll help you find something good.

I have that exact solar charger. We love it, especially for camping. The first time you charge it you have to plug it to the wall to get a full charge. The solar is meant for recharging. We wall charge it the night before we leave and just from that we can get 4+ full phone charges from it. Then when we are hanging around the campsite we stick it out in the sun. It's fantastic. My husband mocked me relentlessly when I first bought it then stole it on our first trip, so I bought him his own.

[@goyam.3104]

Addition: It takes much longer to charge it with sunlight compared to a regular charger. The Solar Panel provides online little energy compared to what we are used to. But as you use it, it is absolutely Perfect because you can extend the charge/capacity.

[@nancyf298]

Question: if you use all the battery after the solar recharge does it need to be plugged into a wall charger again? Because we had bought a charger from this brand to get us through a week of having no power from a hurricane, we charged it once in the sun (without wall charging it) and it worked but every time after that it would never recharge. The directions that came with it never once made mention of wall charging it before using the solar, so we ended up returning them thinking they didn’t work.

[@babylaye8851]

@@nancyf298 every new trip/use we plug in to the wall again. It is a faster, more efficient charge. The solar charging is more of a back up.

[@nancyf298]

[@kierathompson1561]

Came here to say this. You have to recharge it with the wall sometimes. The solar option is for recharging. It’s like $5 of gas doesn’t fill your tank but it tops you off and keeps you from running lower. It’s the same concept. There’s a back up battery in there that’s solar charged and it only holds two bars of charge at a time. From what I understand

My in-laws bought the Yoto player for our daughter for her 4th birthday and she loves it so much! We don’t use it as a replacement for reading her stories, but more as a screen-free source of entertainment for her and she also loves listening it to her when she is lying in her bed before she goes to sleep or when she wakes up in the middle of the night and it works so wonderfully for that purpose! We also love the make your own cards because then we can add any of our daughter’s favourite songs to that or can record our own voices too.

[@whitneyodor6176]

I was so intrigued by the candle so I went to their site to shop. On the site it explains that these candles are designed to tunnel about 1/3 to 1/2 of the way and then the wax beads should start "waterfalling" in with the rest of the wax. The tunneling would drive me nuts so I'm glad I read that bit in case I get some.

I’ve owned that Renpho eye mask for over a year now. There are multiple modes so you can turn on/off the vibration, pressure, heat, etc. I love it! My only issue with it is that it’s really hard to control. You can use either the buttons on the front (which you can’t see when it’s on your eyes), or the remote (which you also can’t see when it’s on your eyes…). You sort of have to find the mode you want and THEN put it on. I do find it to be super comfortable, similar to wearing snow goggles 😊
