ideas for a small gift for 5 year old boy

savingmonkey

I have 2 boys to buy a Christmas gift for, both 5 years old. Bit stuck as to what to buy. Max spend £10 each. Any ideas appreciated.

what would you prefer to buy them - toy, book, pjs, slippers etc?

At that age I could play for ages with a couple of large empty boxes

I bought all the children I need to buy for four large wooden dice (die?) from The Works. They were £1 each but they can have endless fun making up games at that age, educational too. They always like to play with the small dice I already have, to see who can throw the highest number combinations etc. The very large ones are a bit of a novelty and cheap enough to buy a set of four or more each.

thats very cool - great idea, my brother was given a fold-up and carry garage and some toy cars when he was about 5 (so about 35 years ago!) and its been played with by every child in the family since, boys and girls alike.
