Xmas gift


JamesCarpenter

Hello. Sorry if this question seems a bit non-tech. I have a 21 year old son who is in his third year at University doing a degree in Computer Games Programming. This means he has a good knowledge base in programming. However he mentioned that he would like to build and programme his own gadgets, in his digs, based around a Raspberry Pi. I would like to buy him the basics to do this for a Xmas present. I know to buy a Raspberry Pi, but my question is what else do I need to buy, as a type of ‘starter kit’, to get him going. Also any recommendations on a decent soldering iron for electronics would be gratefully received.
