He has just had his birthday
Likes gaming, pokemon
His brother is so easy to buy for but he is much trickier

What about a voucher for his console? My DS is on a Nintendo so I could buy him an e shop card to spend on either a game, DLC (game add on) or buy Minecoins?

Does he have any YouTuber he likes? DS loved the T-shirt from one of his favourites, Prestonplayz.

I have an 11y old boy and for Xmas 'extras' I have bought him a backpack, wallet, shin pads, trainers and plectrums - all ideas from a thread I came across, on here.
Lately, he's had a football, goalie gloves, decent sketch pads and pencils. He still likes novelty stationery.
Things he's bought himself, lately - cacti (he has them all along his window sill), sharpies, Nerf gun (he and all his friends still play with them a lot) and some ugly things that clip on to his bag.
Last year, I surprised him with a Cajon, which went down very well. Actually, he has asked for another attachment for it.
It's a lovely, funny age, where tastes are getting more grown up (and expensive), but a dog bum pencil sharpener and a plant in a cute Alpaca pot still elicit a Yay and a hug.

Pokemon inspired clothes here www.character.com/collections/pokemon Their dressing gowns are generally good quality. DS2 is getting a Chewbacca one for his 12th birthday.

There's a Pikachu (fake) Oodie on Amazon.

I bought my grandson a great cushion (I know, but bear with me ...) as a gift. It said something like "Don't speak to me, I'll die" and it had a pocket for the game controls ion it, along with a picture of gaming controls. He loves it. Got it on Etsy.

Anyone have an idea of a wallet for an 11yo boy? Great suggestion earlier in the thread, but I'm not sure where to look!

I got mine the infinity gauntlet lego for his birthday. He LOVED it (and it's now sat on the shelf above his computer)
