Still haven't found a gift for the plan-nerd in your family, workplace, or circle of friends? Fear not! Park plan-nerd Clement Lau has published his 5th annual Presents for Plannerds just in time for the Holidays - gift ideas with a planning bent.
Planning books, DVDs, courses, apparel, games, apps, smart phone cases, and tickets to planning exhibitions - these are a few of a plan-nerd's favorite things. Los Angeles County park planner Clement Lau, a plan-nerd himself, has updated his gift ideas for a fifth year. While Clement is a prolific and popular writer on planning topics, his annual holiday gift ideas article is consistently one of his most popular articles. Of course, the Planetizen store itself is listed as a source for plan-nerd gifts, and since you are already almost there, a good starting point. For the full list, please see the source article.
