Looking for inspiration for DS2. We have most of the geography board games from Amazon , he’s too young to be sent off back packing on his own Grin Any ideas ??

He’s not into toys or Lego and I struggle with him every year .
He has an Xbox he shares with older DS .

There's a cup with a map of the world on it, hot drinks make it change to show the effects of sea level rise

My 10
Year old can do it at a basic level (his dad plays it too and now the 6yo is trying but failing).

Oh and he wants a smart/sports watch this year so he can track his routes when out or cycling
