7 year old boys

[BreadAndChipsPlease]

I'm looking for present ideas for ds who will be 7 a few months after Christmas.

He already has a bike and scooter and we're overflowing with Lego and playmobil.

Please share what you're getting your 7 year old sons! Thank you

My DS(6) is having:

Huffy Green Machine Go-Kart

[MatchsticksForMyEyes]

Robo Space lab, horrible histories game, flicker scooter, books.

[MigsSlippers]

Football goal, football game for the wii, music player

DS (6) is getting Stickbots and the Zanimation Studio, a 3DS, football boots, a gumball machine, Real Madrid kit

[Cagliostro]

Wooden marble run to share with his big sister, Thunderbirds chess set, sticker books, space duvet cover and fact cards, wooden transforming robot thing, card game, jigsaw

[Cagliostro]

Oh and I normally get him a beanie boo or similar although we are overflowing with cuddlies so may not! He and DD are also getting a microscope

[BreadAndChipsPlease]

Thanks that's really helpful.

Considering robo space lab and stickbots- had never heard of either of those.

He already has lots of football stuff as he's obsessed and not into computer games.

Any other ideas?

Ds (6) is getting a nerf gun ammo jacket (only useful if your ds has a nerf gun I guess). He's also getting much of the above. A nice adidas or Nike hoodie would probably go down well if he's a football fan.

[BreadAndChipsPlease]

And already has a marble run.

The space duvet cover sounds nice. Where was that from?

This is great - I need to get a "really cool toy" for similar age nephew and mine are younger so had no ideas.

We got a lovely quality space duvet cover, it's the Catherine lansfield one www.amazon.co.uk/Catherine-Lansfield-Kids-Outer-Single/dp/B007V2UZ96?tag=mumsnet&ascsubtag=mnforum-21 and highly recommend it.

I've found a pocket microscope and insect slides. Owners of 7 year old boys - good present?

[CozumelFox]

Horrible Histories DVDs
Hexbug VEX Robotics kit.
Cluedo
A recorder and learning/songbook... I might regret this!
Possibly some Pokemon stuff, Minecraft stuff or Star Wars stuff.

Also really likes Hexbugs and KNEX, which we let the relatives buy

My DS (just turned 8) is getting a skateboard, remote control car, CD player for his room, audio books, basketball net and ball, magnetic dartboard, the Dangerous book for boys, football trainer, football boot bag, a set of books, Rubik's cube, Gryffindor beanie hat and gloves. He got a very cool archery set for his birthday which was a massive hit. This stuff is not all from us...from extended family too!

[CoffeeChocolateWine]

Last Christmas, Hot Wires was a big hit. My DS doesn't really play with toys (he's more of a active sporty boy...hence the list above!) but this electronics set he does still play with again and again.
