Sons 9th- no idea what to get?!

[littlepeaegg]

He's asked for a gaming chair... but nothing else.

I'd like to get a few other bits but no idea what. He's not into Lego or crafts.

So unsure!! Any cool ideas??

Hello littlepeaegg, I'll be in the same boat, in a matter of months. My son's very much into gaming on the computer. He does have LEGO, likes to read and craft with clay... But that's in his "no screen" time. Last Christmas, we gave him a gaming headset and a game on Steam (gaming engine) he had wanted. Nowadays he talks about wanting a rainbow gaming keyboard :) Maybe you could check with your son which games he likes to play and go from there? Maybe accessories in a specific theme (for instance, Roblox has real-life gadgets) would be a good idea. We do make it a point of not paying for extra in-game features, since there's no end then If your son is more into the designing aspect, he might be happy to follow a specific workshop? It's a shame corona makes everything so uncertain in terms of social gathering. Otherwise we could send our kids out to do some lasershooting/trampoline action :/ Hope you find something useful and your son has a blast
