My 6 year old boy is into spy stuff so he is getting a spy handbook and some secret writing pens in his stocking. He also likes board games so he is getting a couple of those. Also a couple of pieces of software for the computer (I think one is something to do with zoo animals). Also famous five audio book on CD. He loves Horrid Henry but I refuse to buy him any
