What are your 9 year old boys in to?
I'm completely stuck as to what to get for ds birthday and I have 5 days!

He has a Nintendo switch, all accessories for it and plenty of games. He also has a fire tablet and he has a scooter and bike.
Hes also got lots of lego/knex/boom trix etc.

I'm at a complete loss! At this rate he's going to have a box set of books and a stupid farting keyring I picked up for a couple of quid because I knew it would make him laugh!

Help!.

My nearly 9 year old has asked for Lego, books and a science kit. We are also getting him toy story monopoly and a cookbook

Is he ready for a more grown up bedroom? He could choose the stuff and £300 could go a long way if you don't need new furniture

My 8year old has asked for a rug for his bedroom and a desk Grin

I just wanted to say thank you to everyone that offered suggestions.
It helped me so much and gave me some perspective.
The budget I had in mind was definitely top end budget but I definitely don't need to spend that much!

I ended up going for a scooter ramp and protective gear. A couple of books, the pens he had asked for, a switch game and new case and some youtube merch 😂
Birthday sorted!

I've earmarked some of the money that's left for a day out and possibly dinner out/takeaway and some to go into his savings.
Sorry it took me so long to respond, I'm dreadful for forgetting I have active threads!
