Ideas for 11 year old boy

[Peabody25]

Help! Need some ideas for ds11 please. He loves reading (has tonnes of books), drama, coding, walking, and gaming, particularly Pokémon and Fortnite! Isn't really sporty at all.

He's in year 6 so not high school yet. He's got one of our old mobile so isn't bothered about an upgrade, has a switch with tonnes of games, and a laptop.

So far I've got some fiction books, annuals, and a couple of games and I'm really struggling for ideas for the first time. On his list is nerf guns, Pokémon cards, a dart board and a couple of plushies.

He got quite a bit of Nike stuff for his birthday in September so doesn't need any clothes and got a new school bag and water bottle at the same time,

Any ideas?

Not sure of budget, but is this the sort of thing he would like?

I work with tweets, teens and young people and they all love Snap Circuits when i get them out!

Headphones, mouse, mouse mat, headphone stand/hanger

Stuff for his room, beanbag, cushion, led lights, lava lamp, fuzzy blanket

Art pens/drawing book

Lego fortnite or harry potter range

What about a Pokemon Elite Trainer Box? You get several packs of cards but other bits and pieces too. My son bought one and got a £50 card in there! Kids think they are really cool.

Smyths Toys/Argos sells them but also look at a specialist like Magic Madhouse or Chais cards. Don't buy from Amazon, they can be faked or have been opened. Shop around for a good deal.

Also look at Pokemon Center UK for plushies. Can't go wrong with Lego is he likes that, we've got the chess set this year.

At 11, DS was all about Lego.

Thanks all, some really good ideas to look through!

I bought my grandson a hoodie from saltrock. They are a surfy type child

Following for ideas. My 11 year old doesn’t need any tech, and only ever asks for Roblox/Fortnite/Apple gift cards.

This year he’s actually asked for a Harry Potter chess set so I’ll get that and was thinking about HP Monopoly.

If he's into walking what about some walking poles or a headlamp?

If he's into drama how about a behind the scenes tour of a theatre? Many of them do tours. Our favourite was the Royal Shakespeare in Stratford. Got to see all the dressing rooms and prop rooms etc. Was great.

Oh I love the idea of a behind the scenes tour, that would be amazing. I'll see what's near us.
