What about taking a short trip (like to your downtown area) on a real "live" Thomas? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gifts-for-a-5-year-old#post-148439 Fri, 04 May 2012 14:20:41 +0000 Alivoo01 148439@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jessiejo17: That's a great idea, however, this kiddo got a freakin iPad when he was 2! He's addicted to it, and I don't know if he'll pick up a Leapster in place of his iPad. I'll keep it in mind for my cousin's daughter's bday though. Thanks!</p> <p>@pelikila: Great suggestion! Thanks! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gifts-for-a-5-year-old#post-148349 Fri, 04 May 2012 13:25:13 +0000 pelikila 148349@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Does he have a watch? Disney (and others) have a learn to tell time series of watches that are cool. I got one for my 4 year old nephew back in January and he's not quite ready for it but he still loves it. <a href="http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss_1?url=search-alias%3Daps&#038;field-keywords=learn+to+tell+time+watch#/ref=nb_sb_noss_1?url=search-alias%3Daps&#038;field-keywords=disney+time+teacher+watch&#038;rh=i%3Aaps%2Ck%3Adisney+time+teacher+watch" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss_1?url=search-alias%3Daps&#038;field-keywords=learn+to+tell+time+watch#/ref=nb_sb_noss_1?url=search-alias%3Daps&#038;field-keywords=disney+time+teacher+watch&#038;rh=i%3Aaps%2Ck%3Adisney+time+teacher+watch</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gifts-for-a-5-year-old#post-148311 Fri, 04 May 2012 13:00:20 +0000 LuLu Mom 148311@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think 5 is a good age to start getting him some good reading books since he will be starting school. I got my niece who turned 5 in February and Leapster Pad, so she could read and do activities on there it help out with preschool/kindergarten. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gifts-for-a-5-year-old#post-148247 Fri, 04 May 2012 12:23:46 +0000 Alivoo01 148247@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My nephew is turning 5 this weekend, and I have yet to buy him a gift. Procrastination at it's finest, but I just don't know what to get him! He likes Thomas the Train, but has everything under the moon for Thomas already. Any suggestions on what else I can get him? </p>
