What’s everyone gifting their 7/8/9 year olds this year please? Looking for inspiration!

[28Spring]

All ideas welcome!! Thank you!

Thank you, getting lots of great ideas!! Much appreciated!!
@Impatientwino this made me laugh 😂"Tracksuit the same as 12yo brother so he'll be delighted with that (12yo will be disgusted)"

We don’t know yet. An idea from this thread is an Oodie. Maybe a PlayStation game although I don’t know if there’s a particular one he’s got his eye on. Robux is usually a winner because we don’t normally let him get them.

8 year old girl

• Pokemon scarlet game for her switch lite
• Animagic axolotl
• Flamecraft board game
• lego dreamz village set
• second hand lego elves dragon set
• pokemon funko pop
• small weaving loom craft set

• Books (dragonolgy book, dragon with the chocolate heart, dragon girls book 1, pablo and splash and fossil hunter)

Stocking

• stacker dinosaur highlighters pens
• dinosaur stickers
• chocolate
• sloth water bottle
• dragon pin badge
• mini bag crystals
• littlest pet shop blind bag
• panda rubbers
• mini pot smores cereal
• dragon soft toy

A sphero indi, Bitty pops & Pokémon

DS is still six but has asked for snap cubes and Doctor Who stuff.

So far we've got:

A couple of Doctor Who Action Figures to add to his growing collection

Doctor Who Top Trumps

Doctor Who Mug

Doctor Who Bean Bag

Doctor Who Book Set

Snap Cubes

Space Hot Water Bottle and Cushion

Space Torch

Everything from Vinted so far. Basically impossible to buy Doctor Who stuff new.

Still need to get a few more bits though and some Stocking Fillers.

8 yo boy, Mix of birthday & Christmas and from everyone including Aunties and Grandparents

Football rebounder
Football strip
Lego Millennium falcon
Lego Farrari
3D jigsaw farrari
Switch games
Switch controller
Gravitrax- this is a see how he goes
Electric chess

Adding to this - annoyingly the Doctor Who figures he really wants happen to be rare ones that are very pricey second hand. Some you can get for between £6 - £15 but some of the rare ones are £40!

And then for his stocking he has the usual chocolate, maybe a bottle of prime, some mini figs,gloves, mini etch a sketch, a juice wrld dog tag and stickers,croc charms and a little koala teddy coz he still loves his teddies.

9 year old DD is getting (from us and other family):

Roller skates
Our generation doll
Sylvanian Families bakery set
Magic potion kit
New hoodie
Blanket with Cinnamoroll on it
Knitting set
Squishmallow
Books

Plus some small bits in her stocking.

He had his birthday a few weeks ago and I got him one of those mini Bluetooth speakers that comes with 2 mics. Was under £20 and it's been a hit (it's quite fun for adults too after a few glasses of wine)

DS 8 -
Bike
Gaming chair
ps5 game
air up set
jordan trainers - bargain on nike
v bucks
fart face fuggler

My 7 and 9 year olds have both asked for football boots, a football strip, football cards and a football each. The 7 year old would also like lego and a sleeping bag (lol) and his big brother has asked for a pair of trainers.

My DS just turned 7.

For his birthday, we got him:

• a bike
• Harry Potter Book 1
• Squishmallow
• Sonic Mania for the Switch

His favourite gifts from others (these would make fantastic stocking fillers for anyone interested):

• Kanoodle puzzle game
• IQ Gears puzzle game

For Christmas, we have planned:

• Rubik's Cube (he had the Rubik's Edge last year which was a hit)
• Cats & Boxes game
• Speed Poo remote control toy
• Poo Diary
• HappySelf: My First Journal

We usually get something for the family too, and this year we're getting Just Dance for the Switch, which he loves watching clips of on YouTube.

He's got a younger brother and asked to get him a Toniebox. He has no idea how much it costs, but he was so quick to suggest it and picked out stories he thought his brother would like from the website 🥰 so we're going with it and will get him to choose some stories for himself too. They've got a decent bundle offer for Black Friday. I've heard Yoto is good too, but I think the Toniebox will suit us.

Edit: grammar 😅

8yo boy

A new tablet
Lego
A toy lightsabre

Its all he wants and various stocking fillers - bunny v monkey book, transformers themed stuff

DD9 (almost) is getting
Wicked Lego
Thermal digital printer thing
3d pen (purchased from Lidl months ago!)
Lots of craft/drawing/coloured markers
Nano tape craft set (specifically asked for)
Crocs
Switch games
LOL dolls
Pen creator set
Slime making set

This is from us and wider family.

Thank you all for tons of great ideas; and the education as I’d never even heard of Funkpops or Beyblades! I must live under a rock! 😂
Really appreciate all your replies, you’ve made my life much easier, thank you!

Ds(9 in December) has asked for:

Drum kit
Mystery Christmas Squishmallow
Air Up bottle
Smyths gift card

@invisiblebark i don’t know if this helps, but there were a couple of Dr Who things in B&M last week, including a first doctor’s tardis & Davros, in case those are of interest?
