what are you buying a 6 year old boy for christmas

[mysonsmummy]

simple really - i am completely stuck for the first time ever for what to buy ds 6 - i think hes ata really difficult age. what are you getting yours?? thanks

magnetix box of 400 pieces

was £80 in Argos, reduced to £40 and then reduced to £25

An absolute bargain

Star Wars lego; Bionicles; binoculars; wind-up torch; Dr Who book (he has Captain Underpants and Horrid Henry already - he likes them (I don't)).

Anything in the horrible histories/science genre. We have a bunch of CDs that came of cereal packets - boys laugh like drains at the stuff. And anything Dr Who, natch.

Forgot also got Star Wars Monopoly and the Lego contraptions book and Match annual.

On the hunt for Ben 10 Nintendo DS game but if we don't manage to find it I am not too bothered as have just realised how much he has!

Lego Star wars here too - also an Ant Farm and Zoob Car designer. An embarrassing amount of stuff for stocking which I've been buying since Sept, shoving under the bed and forgetting about it!

Some more books with at least a few about knights and castles.

This year at 7 he is getting more Lego, Pass the Bomb which is a board game and he and DS2 are sharing the Playmobil Roman Arena.

just been to hamleys for the first time with him and it was great.

so much better than toys r us where i can never find anything.

found some great stuff he will love.

Was Hamleys packed??

We went in October and I hated it! Couldn't wait to get out - was terrified that if there was a fire/bomb scare or something that there would be a huge crush problem.

Give me ToysRUs any day!
