I'm at a loss on what to get my 11 year old nephew for his elementary school graduation.
Developmentally he's still more into toys than my 11 year old niece is. But I don't want to get him toys or video games. I want something that is a "little grown up". ie For my niece I'm getting her a pair of citrine earrings.
Any ideas? I'll like to stay under $50.
Thanks!

Hmm...I've never even heard of these types of gifts as we don't do any graduation except high school here lol, but I wouldn't over think it I think any gift would be appreciated!

@Bao: LOL I don't think elementary school gifts are common at all. But I just want to.
I'm just at a loss to what to buy because I don't want to buy toys.

No clue since I have never bought an elementary school grad. gift before.
A watch?

@Smurfette: oh, yes!!! Great idea!!!!
He LOVES DH's G Shock watch!! Of course it might have to do with the fact that it's his uncle's watch. 
But he might get a kick out of having his own. off to see if there are kid sized G Shocks!

@autumnlove: his mom would just take it or put it in his college savings. 
Last Christmas we got all the kids iTunes GC because they're not allowed to buy any apps. We thought it would be fun for them. But his mom took it and used it!!

I would just take him out to eat at his favorite restaurant. That's what I do for my little cousins. I am only giving gifts or money for high school and college graduations.

I planned to get my nephew a GC to Best Buy so he can pick out a video game, but his mom has been complaining that he plays too much video game. Sooooo I am going to get him a GC to a clothing store so he can buy new school clothes for the fall.
