What do you suggest as gift for 7-year-old boy that's about $12?
Comments (16)My great nephew loves to draw, and he's very good. Cranyons, colored pencils, markers, craft paper. Another great nephew loves board games. I think he and I played 50 games of Trouble in a 2 day period. He loved it. I loved it. I think any game that has you giving kids your time and attention they will love. I have also given them light up things to put on the handlebars of their bikes, ugh, don't know what they are called. You slide them onto the two ends of the handbars. For example http://www.ebay.com/itm/Bicycle-LED-Fiber-Optic-Handlebar-Light-Streamers-Light-Up-Your-Handlebars-/290731981877 Here's a site with all sorts of light up stuff for kids http://coolglow.com/~/?feature=LED+Light-Up&gclid=Cj0KEQiAp4yjBRCE_enjmpug944BEiQATCpLvSTrRmUtPzO3ZFfP2fb20WIS3V5sV8V1BspF59ARy1waAlQ-8P8HAQ#...See MoreNeed gift suggestions for 13-to-18-year-olds
Comments (8)It's a good idea this year NOT to buy gift cards to specific stores. There's really no way of knowing which ones will still be around in January. I don't think a gift card is really the right way to go for the kind of situation you describe, but if you do feel that's the best choice, get a MALL gift card--that way, it can be used in any store, for clothes, books, music, etc, and all the stores in any given mall are unlikely to go out of business. For kids that age--if you can get an idea of sizes, casual clothes are always good. A winter coat might be needed and appreciated. Girls--maybe a craft kit to make jewelry or something else sparkly, or any bath, body, nail, make-up stuff is generally up their alley. Boys--sporting goods. Books, if you think they'd enjoy them, although picking books for kids you don't know is a challenge. Would you be allowed to buy tickets to a play, concert or sporting event and take them yourself? That would be an awesome gift, but it might not be possible in the situation. Of course, if you can find out what each child's specifically interested in, you'll be home free--much easier, if you can get that info somehow. And thanks for taking an interest and helping someone who surely needs someone who cares....See Morebirthday gift for two year old who has a lot of stuff already
Comments (44)if u don't want to go the book route, how about a savings bond?? u pay $25 and in 15-20 (i forget which) years its worth $50., i know its doesn't sound like a lot but we did that for our kids since birth. for my oldest it paid half of her college bill in junior year. had the whole family on board and everyone did it when they were too little realize they really didn't "get" anything.. everyone always got them a little something to go with it, so when they we knew they should get presents, they had something to open.. the amounts go as high as $500 i think. did it for every occasion, it really adds up!!! $500 bond, $1,000 in allotted time plus interest if u hold onto them past the mature date.......See MoreGift for 5 Year Old Boy
Comments (22)Sephia, one reason is because we know that the father will insist that we don't need to bring a gift. These are wonderful folks originally from another country than the US and, for some reason, he is greatly honored that we are coming despite barely knowing them. His other guests, mostly family, will be bringing gifts and we want to do so, as well. If we ask the father about what the boy might like, we won't get any answers other than "you don't need to bring a gift". We don't want to ask him, get that answer, then bring something, anyway; don't want to risk offending. As far as it being "more insight than a bunch of people on the internet", I've always found people here at the KT to be insightful, helpful, and knowledgeable. As in this case....See MoreAnnegriet
