He would like lots of Pokémon crap (decks, video games) and lots of lego.

He will get a little bit of Pokémon crap, a small lego set, some books, drawing stuff, new pjs.

Driposaurus · 04/12/2021 12:08

Oh and he’s really loved a Rubik’s cube so he’s getting another Rubik’s gadget.

BlameItOnTheBlackStar · 04/12/2021 12:13

Desk and chair for his room
Football strips
PS4 games
Meccano
Lego

BlameItOnTheBlackStar · 04/12/2021 12:14

Other things he's getting from family might give other ideas; light up globe, perpetual marble run, Lego football stadium, hat with a light in it.

Following this as my 9 year old said he only wants funko pop toys no idea what else to get him , he doesn't want any new ps games and I'm struggling with what else to get him, don't want him to have hardly anything compared to my4 year old Who has way too much

ButtercupBlue · 04/12/2021 12:38

He'll get random bits and pieces in his stocking (choc coins, satsuma, socks, pokemon cards, hair gel, glow in the dark stars.)

'Big' present this year is a new PS4 controller and charging stand.

He's also got a board game, a book, pjs and jeans.

If I can afford nearer the time I'm going to try pick up a new PS4 game but that might be a joint present with his brother.

From other family he's getting lego, slippers and a lamp!

PutYourBackIntoit · 04/12/2021 12:49

This is his list. The only achievable ones are the books and a slightly different helmet. I already got him a different lego set, which I know he'll like.

Luckily he has given Santa an opt out on the laptop!!

Mine has just turned 9 and I used up lots of ideas on his birthday. Watching this thread! Only have Lego and a book about rocks/minerals so far.

fixlet · 04/12/2021 16:40

I've got my 9 year old nephew an instant camera (Fuji-something), and my 10 year old car-mad nephew a junior driving experience, driving a Mini :)

nearlywed21 · 04/12/2021 17:00

@kalidasa what is this book about rocks/minerals

kalidasa · 04/12/2021 17:13

@nearlywed21 it's just a sort of scientific guide to rocks and minerals but for children. He is interested in them and has a rock/gem sample advent calendar! I always feel like there should be one slightly educational item . . .

Wejustdontknow · 04/12/2021 19:12

Slightly younger as ds is 8 but he is getting:
Stocking:
Fortnite T-shirt
PlayStation fluffy socks
More or less game
Chocolates
Giant chubby seal teddy (his choice definitely not mine)
Main gifts from us:
Ps5 headset
Ps5 station to hold console, games and charge controllers
The new fifa for ps5
Rollercoaster tycoon ps5 game
Fortnite blanket

From others:
Faraway tree book collection
Varjak paw book
PlayStation vouchers
Some Pokémon clothes
Go for broke board game
Money

This is the first year he doesn’t want any toys which is a little sad but he is a sucker for his teddies so there is always one he wants although the giant chubby seal is a break from the usual Pokémon ones.

Ds15 has asked for an otomotone which looks like a cool musical instrument 😆

Nc123 · 04/12/2021 21:46

DS aged 9 is arty so is getting a tablet with digital drawing app and stylus, beautiful pens, a couple of action figures, Beano and Dandy annuals, Wreck This Journal, bath bombs, sweets, chocolate, Roblox gift card, and some little things.

Blueuggboots · 04/12/2021 21:50

Lego Mindstorms, a clever kid's quiz book, a blank comic book, origami book and paper,?aftershave - he doesn't shave yet but habits take a long time to build so a bit of fragrance isn't a bad thing.
