ProudGrandma Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 I need to buy a birthday gift for a 8 year old boy and I don't want to spend anymore than $10. If it can be purchased with amazon prime...all the better....thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justLisa Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 I would say a book. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
renmew Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 I was going to say a yo-yo with a how-to book. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
naturally Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 My 8yo DS says Legos, Transformers. DH says nerf gun or water gun. Also, art supplies. HTH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redsquirrel Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 I would say 10$. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starwarsmomma Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 I like to buy the duct tape book(s), then go to dollar tree or other type store and buy a few rolls of the inexpensive duct tape. Boys love duct tape. And this is a book every 8 year old loves to read! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

happypamama Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 My 7yo son would say light sabers, Legos, or Transformers as well -- apparently, one can never have too many of those. He does also appreciate cash. And chocolate. He also likes cool additions to his MatchBox/HotWheels collection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mhg Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 My son loves Kikkerland wind-up toys. My son is 6 and his 8 year old (boy) cousin loves them also. Amazon has them for $ 8 to $10 ish each. No batteries required. Fairly durable also. Some of our favorites are: Kikkerland Oahaca Kikkerland Pintacuda Kikkerland Awika Kikkerland Cosmojetz Kikkerland Skidum Kikkerland Le Pinch I've posted the kikkerland websites of each of these. Once you click on the link, look to the right and click on WATCH VIDEO to see them in action. http://www.kikkerland.com/products/oahaca/ http://www.kikkerland.com/products/pintacuda-wind-up/ http://www.kikkerland.com/products/awika-wind_up/ http://www.kikkerland.com/products/cosmojetz-wind-up/ http://www.kikkerland.com/products/skidum-wind-up/ http://www.kikkerland.com/products/le-pinch-wind-up/ They're fun! And, I doubt he would have seen them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
