kfeusse Posted November 17, 2010 Share Posted November 17, 2010 what are some of the best $5-$10 gifts for ages 6-10 (boys and girls)...that you can think of??? Preferrably something I can buy locally...so that I don't have to figure shipping into the cost. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChristusG Posted November 17, 2010 Share Posted November 17, 2010 Games....I found Yahtzee Jr today for $5. There's some kid friendly card games you can buy too. Gift cards....my DD6 would love getting a gift card to anywhere really. Check out the Target Dollar Spot. There's lots of things in there my DD's love to get. Right now they have some really cute things as stocking stuffers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Preferrably something I can buy locally...so that I don't have to figure shipping into the cost. The Gamewright games all cost about $10 and are a big hit in my household. We like: Sleeping Queens Frog Juice Zues on the Loose There's a lot more than that to choose from though. We have a local game store that sells them but if you ordered them off of amazon then it's free shipping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BMW Posted November 17, 2010 Share Posted November 17, 2010 My boys LOVE mini flashlights... those laser pointer things... and those clips... not sure how to describe the "clips" except that the clip things! They are metal, sometimes red or blue or black, small oval on one side, larger on the other. Also... headphones. I found some games on clearance at Barnes and Noble.

Sonshine Posted November 17, 2010 Share Posted November 17, 2010 Radio Shack has these cool flashlight/glow light sticks in different colors that are $6.00. If you sign up for their emails you get coupons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinder Posted November 17, 2010 Share Posted November 17, 2010 (edited) Balls. Any kind. Nerf ball, football, basketball, playground ball. There's some sort of collapseable ball that you can throw flat and it opens up as you throw it--Spin Master Phlat Ball. I've seen these at Target and Walmart. Magic 8 Ball? :D Cinder Edited November 17, 2010 by Cinder added product link Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Farrar Posted November 17, 2010 Share Posted November 17, 2010 Check out the Target Dollar Spot. There's lots of things in there my DD's love to get. Right now they have some really cute things as stocking stuffers. I was going to suggest that. The Gamewright games all cost about $10 and are a big hit in my household. And that! Also, paperback books for kids are less than $10, even new. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
