What Christmas gifts are you getting your 6 /7 year old boy?

[hmc]

Against my better judgement (suspect it will be crap quality) have got mine a Kung zhu playset and corresponding hamsters and battle armour.

Also Wii Sports Resort and a couple of other things

...but I need to even things up with his sister (she has more than him currently) - so would love to see what you are getting your 6 year old ds (it might give me some ideas!)

Camera - He wants to be a phototaker (bless) when he's older!
Tin Tin books
and stuff from the loft - sometimes a ten year age difference comes in handy!

FIMBO Wallace and grommit things here but no snack timer, sorry. This was the company that had sent my mum a brochure.

If your ds like W+G there are W+G playing cards for sale in M+S for £2.50

*jewels' - we've got a panto Christmas eve too! (ditto, it cost too much-at >£100)

Thank you so much LifeofRiley. I got a snack timer brand new from Ebay yesterday, ended up paying £10 including p & p but it is just the kind of thing ds will love, so it will be worth it to see his face. Thank you again.

OBLOMOV - you say you are truly astonished at what people buy and must be spending £2/£300 - well yes I am and then some but everything DS gets is from us. We don't have grandparents, aunts, uncles to give extra gifts. All we have is the three of us so yes I spoil him and spend a fair bit at Christmas although with the help of these threads, black Friday etc nothing has been close to full RRP.

oh ZOMBIE!

Off the top of my head ds 7 is having
Xeno
Crystal furby boom
Hot wires
Hornby flying Scotsman
Lego ninjago sets
Character building dr who sets
Spongebob mega bloks sets
Ghostbusters lego
Back to the future lego car
Vinyl pop ghostbusters

I love seeing how quick trends change. This was from only 4 years ago, yet I'll bet no child has a zhu zhu pet or paper jams on their christmas list this year!

just realised this is from 2010!

Our DS is almost 7. He's getting a PS3, Skylanders Trap Team, Minecraft, walkie-talkies, a kite, books, a ben10 watch and some lego figures.

Last year the Elves left him a huge plastic storage box filled with arts & crafts stuff (he loves to make things) and this year they will be refilling it

Ds (7) wants a game where you get a category (like Jobs) and an initial letter and have to name things in the category

Does anyone know what this game is called??

He is also getting Uno, a science museum kit

Never mind, it's just the thread I need (have not got enough ideas yet!!)

It is very easy to give the gifts to this age group of children. Like you can give:-
Things they can play in inside the home.
Football
Story Books
Books in which he can read about Jesus
Bunch of pen and pencil.
