girls with older sons

so I need to buy my nephew a christmas present and i'm at a loss.

he's 10, loves video games, and reading.

I do not want to give him a video game, I would prefer to get him something that encourages him to interact with other people.

any thoughts?

also my SIL's ex is loaded and so he has like anything he could ever need so i'm trying to think outside the box.

Re: girls with older sons

  • I'm buying a bunch of stuff for his room. He's in to Minecraft (a video game) and they sell a bunch of decorations for that. I'm also going to buy the last 2 Harry Potter books for him.

    Maybe get him some board games? I don't know this age is so hard when it comes to gifts. They're too old for little kid toys and not old enough to want clothes. Is he in any sports? Last year I got A all baseball related things. Helmet, batting gloves, and balls.

  • Chase is also into mindcraft too. Hes asked for any Philly sport shirts or hoodies. He also really likes the Big Nate books. They are a comic book/ chapter book. It has a little bit of both and Chase has ever single book. He also likes Diary of The Wimpy kid. He still rides his razor scooter all over the place too. He also asked for a new football. 

    He isnt getting any of that though. Dude, is getting a Kindle Fire, an Amazon gift card and some jeans.

  • That should work. We have it on the iPad and it gets played with around once a week

    There's a kid who lives beneath us who is a senior in high school and still rides his razor scooter all over the place. Is that weird?

  • A rides his razor scooter every day to school. If he's still doing it in high school I think I would make fun of him more than his classmates would.

  • I'm at my grandparents right now and she has a catalog with a bunch of neat puzzles and different gifts that aren't the usual stuff you see. The website is bitsandpieces.com

    What about Legos? The before and after school kids here are always building with the Legos. The store at the mall has some neat sets. Do they live near Barnes and noble?
