to ask what 6yo boys want?

[HarlinRay]

I want to send my 6yo nephew a toy or game he can play with by himself that will delight him beyond all sense and will keep him busy enough to give my sister a break now and then.

He’s sporty (loves American football and, weirdly, golf- his granddad is a golfer) but probably has every piece of sport related equipment imaginable. He used to like floor jigsaw puzzles but has gone off those now. Also into superheroes, especially Spider-Man.

Any ideas?

What about a swingball set for the garden?

Mine wants Dogman books mostly these keep him busy for a while. Also likes puzzle books. As far as games go- he likes table football and darts (Velcro not with pointy bits!) and a tin can alley game he can play in the garden.

Mine loves his Kindle fire (but a tablet might be controversial!), Lego (although that might require adult help), Playmobil, magazines (the kind with a toy on the front), puzzle books with things like spot the difference and colouring in, new colouring pens, super hero figures, things that he can use like binoculars, compass etc, dress up etc

Football kits
Football figures
Footballs

My DS is football obsessed. Any other toys just get neglected and I eventually take them to a charity shop.

If you don't know their interests I'd stick with cash.

What’s your budget?

Lego?

My 6 year old ds loves Lego and minecraft! He’d love anything to do with either of those things! He also likes doing crafts and junk modelling!

Mine loves lego (no parental input required) and dogman books (again independent reading).

Stomp rocket !

My six year old is really into Minecraft and Roblox. For both you can buy little figures and sets and he will happily play for hours.

Alternatively my son likes a plastic sword, a toy gun and fancy dress and will run around the house fighting "bad guys"

Lego, Minecraft, Pokemon, Minecraft, football, Minecraft, guns (sticks found on walks) oh and Minecraft.
There's also Minecraft
Year Week 6 of Minecraft sorry lockdown with the DCs has clearly got to me

Lego, minecraft, and roblox are firm favourites, he loves a sword to play eith and also got into plushes from Mario which he makes do random stuff. Also a sandpit will keep him entertained for hours

You can get Spider-Man (and other super hero) Lego sets.

You can get Minecraft lego!

My 6 year old wants all of the lego.

Whats you're budget?

My 6 year olds interests are as follows:

Football, rock music, writing, dinosaurs. He also loves things like Knex, Lego etc

RC car. Something bit more robust like this:

How about some outdoor games - giant jenga or giant connect four?

Lego, dogman books, den building kits, computer games and board games.

Mine will play with k'nex all day long

Mine adores playmobil and monster trucks.
And dinosaurs, cuddly toys, cars, lorries, anything police related.

Very different to his older DB.

LEGO, Harry Potter LEGO, LEGO City LEGO, Ninjago LEGO.......

Mine loved play doh sets at that age, with extra play doh. I used to give him bun trays and muffin trays and cases too and he was away.

Lego spiderman set?
