I also have a 9 year old son and really struggling for Christmas presents this year!
he’s recently into Harry Potter, so I think I’ll get
him the lovely set of illustrated HP books and probably a HP lego set
full football kit
probably a couple of ‘name’ clothing items eg nike hoodie.
a television in his room - currently pg with DS2 and would like to make his room a place he can go and chill out and escape from a screaming baby if he needs to.
speedometer for his bike and also the little lights for his wheels
new headset for his Nintendo switch and probably a new game for it (usually leave this bit to DP I have no idea about games!!)
always buy him a board game we can play as a family, I think he’d like the ‘headbanz’ one
we Got him an Oodie for his birthday a couple of weeks ago and that went down very well if your DS doesn’t already have one!
he’ll also get a stocking with things like new felt tips and notebooks (he loves writing and colouring) World Cup football stickers, bath bomb, cosy socks, chocolate.
Some great ideas on this thread I might pad on to family members who also have no idea what to get him!
