These are all great ideas! I will have to print this out for the following years too, lol! He does have army men that are mostly all broken now because he leaves them out and they get stepped on, lol. Good think they're cheap! Still trying to get him to take care of his stuff.

I can't believe I didn't think about the flashlight and toolbox. He is always playing with his dad's. I'm sure he would love to have his own. And the Airzooka sounds like something everyone in our family should own, lol!

I don't know what an Army surplus store is, so I'll have to check that out. Sounds fun!

Thank you for the ideas!

You can never go wrong with Legos. My 15 1/2 yr. old still builds with them. Mine also likes K'Nex. Especially the ones that had motors. My oldest was very creative and built an R2D2 unit with them. It moved and his head spun like R2D2. He didn't have instructions, just did it on his own. Anyway... if he likes building, that is a good toy. Mine never were into cars much. They also have Lego board games. My kids loved to play games too and not just lego lol

I vote for nerf guns too!
