Braille dice, accessible Lego instructions, accessibility kits for board games

Kes: Most of these items require some sighted assistance, but assembly or sorting could be done ahead of time and then included in time for gift-giving. For example, with the Lego kits, Legos could be sorted into separate bags and the instructions could be downloaded onto a thumb drive and included with the kit. Also note that Bard/NLS has a number of D&D books available as downloadable digital audiobooks.

64 Oz Games

makes accessibility kits to make board games accessible, along with braille puzzles, braille dice, tactile tactic grids, and more. They also sell a braille Rider Tarot Accessibility kit (not sure if these are adhesive-backed or if they are sleeves that fit over the cards).

Legos for the Blind
Downloadable text-based instructions for 30 Lego sets, still requires sighted person to sort the Legos
