Present for a 6 year old boy

I want to get a present for a 6 year old boy. He likes cars but already has loads. I wanted to spend about £30? I’m struggling to think of something. The child’s parents haven’t been able to help with ideas.

Lego. A lego car if you want to stay on theme 😊

I have a 6 year old boy and wanted to come on to suggest the same thing - Lego car, or some of the easier lego technic sets. Failing that, a good board game - maybe junior monopoly?

Google red track. Don’t get the longest one it’s a bit too long. Kids love it

Herbie DVD's my 6 year old son loves them. Though he's really train mad!

Has he got hexbugs? I recently got some for my 6 year old who loves cars but I thought this was a good alternative (something motorized!)

A remote controlled car? Maybe different from what he has but still what he likes - you'd get a cool one for £30

I’ve ordered the speed track for Christmas @Tryingtohelp12 but the other ideas will get used too. Thank you.

Lego ninjago
Pokemon
Minecraft
Mario
Sonic

That’s about where it’s at at this age. Type in any of the above to the search bar at smyths and you will find something circa £30 or maybe a few bits based around a theme.

Playmobil bin lorry has always been very popular. I have a feeling it might be called a refuse truck or recycling lorry, but I can’t remember.

Hibernatalie · 12/12/2023 19:01

Definitely Lego - always a hit

Or Playmobil

No worries hope it goes down well. Mine has even gone camping (car window) and 5.5 year old loves figuring out how to make loops work and which cars (weights) work better.

I have bought dss (6) a minecraft onesie and some minecraft Lego.
In Tesco's just now they seem to have everything with either sonic, Spider-Man or minecraft on it - clothes toys all sorts. There was loads in my big Tesco
