It's called Chain Reaction and shows kids new ways to use their legos to create "chain reactions." I thought it was neat because it allowed them to use something they already have (Legos) in a new way.<br /> <a href="https://smile.amazon.com/dp/0545703301/ref=sxts_kp_bs_1?pf_rd_p=8778bc68-27e7-403f-8460-de48b6e788fb&#038;pd_rd_wg=FpHvb&#038;pf_rd_r=ADJE8B0CASQGGXMMJAWC&#038;pd_rd_i=0545703301&#038;pd_rd_w=Ihdb2&#038;pd_rd_r=dcc7a40a-ebb2-47a9-a50f-ba050564b2f5&#038;ie=UTF8&#038;qid=1548268581&#038;sr=1" rel="nofollow">https://smile.amazon.com/dp/0545703301/ref=sxts_kp_bs_1?pf_rd_p=8778bc68-27e7-403f-8460-de48b6e788fb&#038;pd_rd_wg=FpHvb&#038;pf_rd_r=ADJE8B0CASQGGXMMJAWC&#038;pd_rd_i=0545703301&#038;pd_rd_w=Ihdb2&#038;pd_rd_r=dcc7a40a-ebb2-47a9-a50f-ba050564b2f5&#038;ie=UTF8&#038;qid=1548268581&#038;sr=1</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/6-yr-old-boy-gift-ideas-needed#post-2868377 Wed, 23 Jan 2019 11:12:19 +0000 Alba4 2868377@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@irene: my kid loves slime, I hate it!!!

We are going to a girl's birthday party from DS' school in a few weeks. I saw her mom at DS' birthday party and I asked her what does she want for a present. She actually told me her DD LOVES making slime, not just slime, glittery slime! So she told me to actually get her a big bottle of glue and glitter!!!! I was like, are you serious?! Am I getting punk'd? LOL </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/6-yr-old-boy-gift-ideas-needed#post-2868314 Tue, 22 Jan 2019 23:01:27 +0000 irene 2868314@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LEGOS with a gift receipt! Or anything you'd buy but with a gift receipt :silly: </p> <p>DS just turned 7 and had his party recently. His favorite gifts were Mastermind, a drone (!!!), and a LEGO book with Legos in them. There were a ton of gifts and we asked him to only pick 7 (we are returning / donating the rest, a boy can only have so much toys), he'd rather have that LEGO book than other bigger boxes of LEGOs (granted we already have a TON of LEGOs and he maybe getting bored of them). And then a big magic tricks kit.</p> <p>Strangely another favorite gift he was very attached to was a stuffed animal that was pretty small, almost the size of a kleenex tissue box. It was completely unexpected lol</p> <p>One present he got was actually two AMC prepaid movie tickets (to any movie of your choice) with a small box of candy and a small box of popcorn attached. Strangely I find that super thoughtful. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/6-yr-old-boy-gift-ideas-needed#post-2868104 Tue, 22 Jan 2019 11:33:29 +0000 Alba4 2868104@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <br /><p><i>This comment has been deleted by the original poster.</i></p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/6-yr-old-boy-gift-ideas-needed#post-2868103 Tue, 22 Jan 2019 11:32:46 +0000 Alba4 2868103@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Board games, Transformers, Superhero anything, art supplies, no slime please!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/6-yr-old-boy-gift-ideas-needed#post-2867987 Mon, 21 Jan 2019 20:06:43 +0000 lamariniere 2867987@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Adding to the choir for Legos. My DS is 8 and still plays with them and loves to get them as gifts. When he was in kinder, we always gave Lego gifts for boy and girl parties. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/6-yr-old-boy-gift-ideas-needed#post-2867928 Mon, 21 Jan 2019 15:35:34 +0000 ALV91711 2867928@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Legos for sure. My almost 6yo DS loves craft kits.

Also magnatiles although they are a big pricey. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/6-yr-old-boy-gift-ideas-needed#post-2867886 Mon, 21 Jan 2019 14:33:54 +0000 misolee 2867886@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Bey Blades are popular with this age.<br /> I also like gifting science kits or magic trick kits (I get them with a coupon at Hobby Lobby or Michaels). </p> <p>My daughter is six. She loves legos but has most of the "girly" ones so I'm not a fan of getting them as gifts (especially if it's the smaller amount ones bc it's all the same). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/6-yr-old-boy-gift-ideas-needed#post-2867877 Mon, 21 Jan 2019 14:03:18 +0000 Ajsmommy 2867877@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We've been to a few dinosaur parties lately and we gifted these items:<br /> <a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01KJEOCDW/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o05__o00_s00?ie=UTF8&#038;psc=1" rel="nofollow">https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01KJEOCDW/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o05__o00_s00?ie=UTF8&#038;psc=1</a></p> <p><a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B018KJVT1Q/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o05__o00_s00?ie=UTF8&#038;psc=1" rel="nofollow">https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B018KJVT1Q/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o05__o00_s00?ie=UTF8&#038;psc=1</a></p> <p>The other party theme was life of pets so we gifted these items:<br /> <a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01DDUHOA2/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o06__o00_s00?ie=UTF8&#038;psc=1" rel="nofollow">https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01DDUHOA2/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o06__o00_s00?ie=UTF8&#038;psc=1</a></p> <p><a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01JDAZ9SK/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o06__o00_s01?ie=UTF8&#038;psc=1" rel="nofollow">https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01JDAZ9SK/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o06__o00_s01?ie=UTF8&#038;psc=1</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/6-yr-old-boy-gift-ideas-needed#post-2867873 Mon, 21 Jan 2019 13:54:44 +0000 ChitownRo 2867873@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>As a boy mom, I hate hate hate little legos (though my son likes them).<br /> I buy board or card games a lot.

I like all the different building kits...circuits, science, crystal mining. My 6 yo boy would be just as happy with art supplies too! He is currently making art with toilet paper rolls, tape, and pipe cleaners...</p> <p>Snap circuits is one of my personal favorites though... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/6-yr-old-boy-gift-ideas-needed#post-2867853 Mon, 21 Jan 2019 12:58:10 +0000 SLR 2867853@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My daughter is starting to go to more and more birthday parties for school friends. Problem is, I am clueless when it comes to good gifts for boys, particularly for kids I don’t know. I’d love some ideas on good go-to gifts for 6 year old boys. I have a much easier time buying for little girls. Thanks!! </p>
