What are you getting your 11-12 year old boy?

[linentowel]

As I am stuck

He doesn’t need
Electronics
Bike
Phone

He’s not really into clothes or trainers yet.

We live rurally in Scotland so membership of anything is difficult.

He does like being out on his bike and scooter.

He likes his x box but don’t want to get more games for that.

Any suggestions as I am stumped!

So far a punch bag/stand thingy. He does karate though.

Unicycle
Pocket kite
Big kite
portable phone charger (anker are the brand that my most techy friends seem to have for best price/power/size combinations)

lots of other ideas on the christmas bargain threads!

Watching with interest. Ds2 has got fifa and football boots and trainers for his birthday. So now have run out of ideas!

Also watching!!

DS has asked for ear pods

Possibly will get him a laptop as quite a bit of homework is now online.
Guinness Book of Records
Clothes
Possibly HP Lego

I'm surprised an 11/12 year old would wear the Boden HP stuff!

If your kids have a switch I can't recommened nintendi labo kits enough!

@ThomasShelbysBunnet Thanks! That looks super cool but maybe not for our small living room. Hope your DC likes it

@Hoooo, which are the best LABO sets? Are they worth the £?

My DS was after a beano annual and a digital camera.

DS2 is 10 but so far he's got a Penny skateboard and Nat Geo engineering construction kit from us, and a Spurs hoodie, Meccano ferrari, and Star Wars Bloxels (make your own video game thing) from grandparents. We plan to get him one of the new Pokemon games, showing no signs of growing out of that yet!

I saw a magna drawing set in the Works that looked quite good.
But I am trying to cut down on the number of presents that aren't the main gift so I am a bit torn
