Nicole


do you have any ideas?
i need to order it online with delivery and i want a gift whats super surprising and awesome =)
oh...and where can i order balloons cheap for delivery?
thank you =)



Answer
It really just depends what they are into. Here are a few ideas that my 5 yr. old niece has liked:
1. big arts/crafts sets (like make your own jewelry, stepping stone, painting, etc.)
2. outside toys if it's warm where they live- balls, jumpropes, tennis raquets, etc.
3. model kits for the boy if he likes building (cars, dinosaurs, radios, etc.)
4. crystal growing kits
5. educational video games like Leap Frog's Leapster (those are huge hits but pricier!)
6. bikes
7. train set for the boy (Thomas the Train is huge)
8. kids table w/chairs for them to sit at
9. kids little sofa/chairs that fold out for sitting & playing
10. a big kids kitchen set w/pretend kitchen
11. a large dollhouse
12. electronic reading systems like Tag/Leap Frog
13. Fisher Price's Cool School computer
14. computer games

this is a small list but hopefully it will spark some ideas for you! not sure about the balloon delivery- maybe try a local flower shop?

I need gift ideas for a 6 year old boy's birthday?

Q. My nephew is about to turn 6. I have a 3 year old girl so I'm not used to buying for boys - can any one help me out? What is "in" these days? Also, if you have educational recommendations that'd be great too because he is pretty behind on speech and other areas.....so something that would keep his interest as well as teach him would be best. Thanks!


Answer
Lego's are great, but they are not cheap.
V Tech and Leap Frog have hand held educational game systems with educational video games they can play with words, phonics, math, etc..
If he plays a sport at all get him something to that effect like a new soccer ball, basketball, bat and baseball etc.. and include a jersey of his favorite team
A play tent is always fun. My son loves his and so do his cousins who are 2 1/2 and 7 when they come over. It's a big hit and they aren't expensive. Check toy and sporting goods stores.
kids science lab type kits are usually fun and a big hit. They come in different themes. Check at an educational type toy store or book store for them. Barnes and Nobles will sometimes have them.
Apples to Apples JR. would be good for word recognition and using synonyms and opposites. It's geared for kids around his age and a little older. Scrabble Jr. is also a nice board game to encourage vocabulary and spelling skills.

Deck of "Brain Quest" trivia cards for his grade and the one after would be a good idea.
Interactive books with pop up parts or diagrams of things like castles, dinosaurs, pirates, etc..
