Ideas Needed for 5 Yr Old Boy!

[BucksOxonMum]

I’m just absolutely at a loss as to what to get him for Christmas!

He keeps on saying he wants an electric motorbike, but we have nowhere to keep one, so that’s out.

He loves dinosaurs, cars and superheroes but has so much of those things to play with already.

What are you buying your 5 year old boys?

Ninjago or Marvel Lego?
Playmobil - mine is getting a fire engine, pirate ship and medieval castle

Hot wheels?

something like

Football
Interest related bedding (e.g. dinosaur bedding etc) if he hasn't got that already
Cool things for his room e.g. fancy led lights
Stuff he isn't usually allowed (obviously sweets etc not crack cocaine)
Mine really wanted weights at that age and was very happy to get them (I went for the small hand held rubber exercise weights rather than a proper metal dumbbell for obvious reasons)

My DS is 5 & half, he'll be getting lots of Pokémon stuff (game, figures, bedding, stationery, books); Spider-Man onesie, bean bag, Minecraft Lego, mini microscope & a few other bits.

Lego, lots of Lego! And craft sets like the chemistry/volcano ones in Smyths toy store

Mine loves space so we have gone for a telescope and hot wheels stuff

Does he already have the obvious things like a bike, scooter, etc?

Yoto player?

Marble run?

Remote control car?

Den-making kit?

Love the idea of getting small weights, my just turned 6yo boy would love that and I think it would help him work out some after school energy.

I have a nearly 4 year old and recently turned 6 year old; the 4 year old is getting the Batman crime alley as his main present along with some Schleich dinosaurs. My older son is getting a children’s Alexa thing, but is difficult to buy for this year as his list has nothing significant on it, so he’s getting a Rubik’s cube and kinetic sand as requested, more Lego including a big Ninjago creative tub, some Sea Monkeys and I will get him one of those toy crane arcade games and fill it with small bits.

Oh and of course the obligatory squishmallow! Don’t know a child that doesn’t love them 😊

My five year old is getting:

Science experiments kit
Fossil dig set
A bell for his scooter
Minions imaginext playset
A few dinosaur themed crafts/activity books
Robo Alice fish for the bath
Slippers and PJs
Set of books
New water bottle

For his birthday he got a den building kit and a Megladon shark remote control car (can go everywhere, through puddles etc - has been a big hit!)

Last year a head torch went down well!

Marble run
Octons
Soft Dartboard with Velcro arrows
Stomp rocket

DS5 is getting:
Lego hospital, ambulance and hospital aeroplane (main present, some second hand)
Lego car wash (from DD9)
Craft box from Hobbycraft
Set of Winnie & Wilbur books
Soft toy dinosaur
Outfoxed game
Switch controller (unofficial one)
Dino Bones cards
Spidey & His Amazing Friends Labyrinth game
Boxibos robots
Minecraft book
Creepy crawlies torch
Colour your own canvas

To share with DD:
2x Melissa & Doug sticker books
8 pot slime set
Big pack of whiteboard pens

DM and DSF have got him a Lego police station and police boat, and PIL a Lego fire station. DM also got him a pack of Hot Wheels cars. Another couple of relatives have bought him a HW search and find book, and a Lego monster truck.

Wow. That is a lot.
