9 yo old birthday...

[whoami24601]

What have you all got for your 9 year olds for their birthday? Interests are superheroes, LOLs, dolls, Harry Potter. They love reading. Already have bike and scooter. Looking for a 'big' present around £50. They have no idea what they want! Help!

Mine prefers a ball and a bone

😆

: )
We've moved this one into chat now.

I put it in chat but the app had other ideas I have reported it and asked for it to be moved!

Cross post! Thanks!

Anyone?

Roller blades/skates
Karaoke machine
Lava lamp
Keyboard
Ice cream machine
Popcorn machine

They already have roller boots and I don't think they'd get much use out of any of the other suggestions. The is for replying though! The only thing they've asked for is a snake but they are definitely NOT getting that!

Oh wait... a popcorn machine might not be a bad shout. We have weekly film nights so would definitely get used!

Gravitrax, Lego Harry Potter, my 9 year old enjoyed his Harry Potter 3D jigsaw.

Clothes from H&M
Bubble tea set
Harry Potter Lego
Loads of books
Big set of art markers

I really want to help but mine wanted a hair dryer & a clip-on night light from us, got Lego dots jewellery box, books and a few more things I can't remember from family.
so not one big thing

I think she got a new scooter last year.
And we got her a karaoke machine for Christmas (it's broken since), can't remember price.

we had a popcorn machine...used it maybe a dozen times in 4 years, then it rotted in the shed until we chucked it.
so unless you are sure you're gonna use it don't bother.

Amazon tablet?
Lego? there's a lot of superhero Lego about

Lego good idea. We do lots of Lego though. I am pretty sure we'll use a popcorn machine (and I have to be as we have a teeny tiny kitchen so can't be having extra junk in there!)

Got a kindle fire (they'd love an iPad but am trying to hold off on anything like that for at least another year or two!)

popcorn machine sounds perfect then!

Are you a Lego VIP member? it's worth it if you buy Lego regularly. you can sign up for free, points after every purchase, redeemed for exclusive items

If your child has a Fire, then perhaps this www.amazon.co.uk/Osmo-Detective-Agency-Explores-Required/dp/B07GJ1XSGP/ref=sr_1_9?dchild=1&s=kids&keywords=Osmo&tag=mumsnetforu03-21&qid=1623349611&sr=1-9

Dd is 9 in 3 weeks. She's mainly asked for money to go on a shopping spree! I have bought her some clothes, Dork Diaries set of books, a couple of other books, a plug in wax melt thingy that lights up, then doing her a little hamper of bath/bedtime bits, so smellies from the body shop, mug & hot chocolate, lush bath bombs, fluffy socks, face mask etc. She hasn't actually asked for any toys, just money and books! Going to get her a daybed for her room and give her room a little make over as well.

Ooh we love a bath bomb so will throw some in!

Pogo stick?

DD was 9 last year. She got an iPod so she could listen to music, but she mostly uses it to watch YouTube videos, a SmartSketcher, Lego (probably Harry Potter Lego), a big pile of books, a Nintendo switch game.

My Dd is 8 next week, a new tablet is her main present but is also getting from family.

Basketball and net
Slushy maker
Tie dye kit

There are some new Harry Potter Lego sets that have just been released. There is a lovely one of a bright bird (don't know the character - gave up on Harry Potter on book 4).

A pogo stick? I loved mine at that age!! Or roller blades maybe?

Mine was 8 in Feb and barely plays with toys anymore. She got an Alexa for her room, clothes, huge box of crap I mean stationery from Smiggle. Books

How about a remote control snake?
