Chronicles of Narnia Gift Ideas to get for a Fan of this Fantasy Series

Unless a fan has specifically asked, don't be tempted to purchase any of the movies, books or soundtracks unless they are really special, signed copies. Anyone who loves this series will already own most if not all of those items already. There are many other Narnia gifts that you can get which they are less likely to buy for themselves.
Trivia: What gifts did Father Christmas give in Narnia?
❄️ Santa gave Peter Pevensie a sword and a silver shield with a red lion on it, Susan a magical bow and arrows as well as a magical horn and Lucy a small dagger as well as a magical healing cordial. Edmund got nothing because he was not with his brother or sisters when Father Christmas paid a visit.
Mrs Beaver got a new sewing machine and Mr Beaver got his dam at home repaired. What does Santa give Lucy in Narnia: she gets a weapon of a dagger to fit in with her brother and sister but it is Lucy's gift of the magical healing cordial which proves to be highly significant to the story.
Buy this Unique Narnia Map Poster Designed by BensMind on Etsy
A fan can really start to visualize scenes from the movies and books when they have an actual map to refer to. This unique artist's design is in the form of a 11 by 17 inches poster which is signed and numbered on the back by the artist.
❄️ A poster makes a great idea for someone wanting to add in memorabilia to their own personal space such as a dorm room, bedroom or classroom even. It's a really thoughtful choice. Of course there is always a Chronicles of Narnia poster that you could opt for. These are particularly good for decorating the walls of a room with.
The all important Lamp Post and the Wardrobe are depicted on this map poster as well as other key places such as The Stone Table. This item should make for a really special item that you can gift and you can also get it framed once you receive it.
More Ideas for Chronicles of Narnia Christmas Gifts
A map of the world is my personal favorite but there are many featuring Aslan the Lion and others with the iconic lamp post and main characters such as the Pevensie children. There are even pillow cases featuring the map which could make a great choice for personalizing a bedroom space.

I can't be the only fan who is slightly obsessed over the highly iconic lamp post. This is a key symbol and motif in this series. It actually originated right from the beginning of the Narnian world and its creation.
We read about the lamp post when Digory Kirke and Polly Plummer accidentally stumble across the new Narnian world as it is being created by Aslan the Lion in The Magician's Nephew.
This lamp post, which is a piece of England that is now fixed in a magical world, is also there to welcome Lucy when she stumbles through the enchanted wardrobe in The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe. So it is a special, unique and recognizable symbol for a fan and a charming looking piece of jewelry to wear.
Another piece of jewelry, not shown here, is a wonderful Lion Shield Necklace which can be ling and is shaped like a shield worn to battle. The happy recipient can wear it to show that they believe in the good of the land when they wear it. For Aslan! Look for the Bob Siemon Sterling Silver Shield Pendant Necklace. You may find this at an auction site.
My Photo of a Winter Theme Narnian Lamp and Christmas Tree

Something I've always fancied is having a real and working outdoor lamp post set up in my back yard. I want one that looks wonderfully traditional and in the exact same style.
Why not grow your own piece of magic outside with an English style lamp post as a unique piece of outdoor decor. This particular idea is perfect for someone who enjoys being outdoors and it should add real character to any outside space. Just add in some snow and you're all set!
Buy this Always Winter Narnia Poster Print from LucyLovesThis on Etsy
This poster print is based on the significant and iconic quotation from The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe.
When the Pevensie children arrive in Narnia for the first time, they arrive in snow and are lucky to find some fur coats in the magic wardrobe that they can wear. What they don't realize at first is that in this new world it is Always Winter but Never Christmas.
The white witch has placed a spell on the land which results in 100 years of cold and no festivities to celebrate once a year.
The children know this evil spell is breaking when Lucy, Susan and Peter meet Father Christmas, Santa, on their journey to reach Aslan. So Christmas has an even more significant meaning in this world. A Narnian Christmas is the very best kind you can get.
Books to Buy on the Chronicles of Narnia
Get The Crafting of Narnia Book at Amazon.com
UK Readers get this book from Amazon.co.uk
Lots of people love to discover and read more about the behind the scenes action and everything that goes into the design of a movie. This book is packed with just that. It comes from Weta Workshop.
I have a number of the Weta Workshop books from The Hobbit as well and was glad to add this one into my collection. Anyone who loves fantasy concept art should enjoy spending hours browsing through this and really delighting in the imagery inside. I think this is a great keepsake item for any adult fan.
The Unofficial Narnia Cookbook: This book contains over 150 Narnian themed recipes. Anyone who loves the this series and who enjoys doing a little bit of cooking is sure to enjoy this themed cookbook.
UK Readers get a Narnia Cookbook from Amazon.co.uk
There are lots of recipes for breakfast, snacks, lunches, dinner and even feasts to delight family and friends with. This book should also be an incredibly useful inspiration for a party or themed occasion. It's a lovely book to browse through as well.
In the very first book, The Magician's Nephew, I was captivated with the idea of a toffee fruit tree that grew up after the boy Digory plants his very last toffee candy. Such is the magic of this amazing land. The great news is that the author was inspired with this notion too and includes a yummy looking recipe for it in the book.
I'm a big fan of Turkish Delight which stems from reading The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe as a young girl.

Although this book is now rather hard to get hold of, I think it would make a great gift for a family. Adults and kids can enjoy cooking up some inspired menus and tasters from their favorite books and movies. As you'd expect, there's a recipe for Turkish Delight in there too.
❄️ A fun little extra gift would be to get hold of a box of Turkish Delight. My favorite brand is Sultan's Turkish Delight which is both rose and lemon flavored. I find this really very yummy and it is extra nice because you get the traditional rose flavor as well as lemon too which is very refreshing. It is a bit like sweet with a hint of sour.
Turkish Delight was what Edmund asked Jadis, the White Witch, for when he first met her. She gave him an enchanted variety. There has been a lot of research into the book and fans of the also popular Unofficial Harry Potter recipe book will probably enjoy this one also if they love this series.
Ideas on Narnia Gifts to Buy for Kids
Buy this Narnia Pop-Up Book from Amazon.com
This can be a little harder to get hold of as a brand new copy now but you can still get it via Amazon and eBay if you are lucky. This is a charming and delightful looking pop-up book that both adults and children alike can marvel at.
It is wonderfully illustrated and a real delight to look through. It is not a pop up based on any one story but it instead has 7 double page and three dimensional pop-ups each based on a book from the Chronicles series.
So each book is represented in this pop-up with a piece of glorious 3D art. I won't tell you what each spread is because that would truly spoil it but, for someone who is really familiar with this work, they will really appreciate each piece and how it conveys the book that it is representing.
These are not like cheap pop ups that you are underwhelmed by, they are detailed and really have a wow factor to them. It's a great keepsake to choose.
❄️ Other gifts for younger fans could include dressing up costumes. It's not hard to get hold of some Knight themed dressing up outfits so kids can pretend to be like the High Kings, Peter and Edmund Pevensie. Look for traditional knight costumes that feature a lion and a bit of red like the Forum Novelties Dragon Slayer Costume. These are the easiest outfits to get hold of that are reminiscent of the stories.
Alternatively, how about a super large and cuddly lion plush toy. Children can have fun pretending that they have Aslan the lion. With a soft plush toy, boys and girls can cuddle up with while enjoying reading their favorite Narnian books and watching the movies too. Let me know what you decide to get.
I'm a big fantasy fan and I love both the book versions written by C.S. Lewis and the movies as well. So I really enjoy picking out items based on my own experience within this fan-base.
