Present for 8 yo boy

[LucasBall23]

Grandparents driving me crazy asking really don't know what to suggest. They've poo pooed several things - yes I know. They want to get a Switch but I have said no not yet, DC hasn't asked and no one in class has one that I know of

Spend up to £80.

Big Lego set
remote control car
does he play a sport? Cricket bat, goalie gloves, football boots etc
tickets to a show

Lego, Yoto Player, pass to place or activity he enjoys?

I’ve just bought dd turning 8yo a 3D pen, a supply of filaments and mat for £44.99, it’s what she asked for.

She’s also got an instant camera.

I'd be very surprised if no-one in a class of 8 yr olds has a switch

Complex Lego!

All my dcs friends had switches by the time they were 7, although we do live in a wealthy area.

What about tickets to an event or annual passes for an attraction x

Football kit?
Fancy scooter?

Skate board
Fitbit
Trip to theme park
Lego
Mini Drone
Remote controlled car
Cricket Set
Football kit
Kindle (for books)

Ahhh some great suggestions thanks all, sadly grandparents like to do a bit physical present so anything attraction based doesn't pass muster 🙄.

Sports stuff and complex lego we already covered last birthday and at Xmas.

@RacingDriver have you bought one. we have a mini drone for use in the house (cheap as chips and bloody well played with) DH was looking at the outdoor ones but seemed pretty specialised.

3D pen looks ACE @ITSSSSCHRISTMASSS

@SweatyBettyAgain small prep school, lots of lecturers children who went to Steiner and Montessori nurseries no Switches yet 😂😅...think there are couple with older siblings who have consoles which they play on but no one has their own that we know off. One for Christmas.

@ITSSSSCHRISTMASSS we did the instant camera at Christmas LOVES still plays with it loads.
