    My 11 year old is into Legos. But, he'd also love your idea.

    Sounds like the "Perfect" gift for a 10yr old boy. I know my son (11yrs) would love that. :o)

    Simple idea: ask him what he wants. Cheers. Good luck. :)

    i don't know him very well and his mom won't provide any ideas. 'i'm sure he'll like anything you give him.'

    I have a 10 yo...

    Movies
    Hot Wheels
    Remote control cars
    Easy model planes, cars, helicopters, battleships
    Big container of Army men/Cowboys & Indians ( you get the idea ).
    Make his favorite meal or let him pick the place if you don't like to cook.
    A new bike or if you are on a budget get some cool extras for his existing bike
    A sand pit or a pea gravel pit ( my son LOVES his )
    A trampoline
    Tickets for the whole family to go to the corn maze
    Pumpkin farm and a hayride
    Scavenger Hunt


    Get creative people !

    Hope this helps

    My demon would LOVE that. Or one of those books that show them how to make gross things. I've seen them at B&N.

    My son just turned 11. For 10, Lego seems to be a bit hit, if the child already has and likes Lego. The movies are a good idea, though for candy, I'd go with the gummy worms or sour patch candies. Seems the more sour, the more kids like them. Bigger budget could include an iPod, or if they have an iPod already, a gift card for iTunes.

    Heck my daughter loves DIary of a Wimpy Kid! LOL She loves the books as well. I buy lots of books for my kids, they're both avid readers.

    I like the idea of the movies w/ the popcorn/candy, you could find a cool plastic popcorn container and put everything in there. I would probably just make sure he doesn't have those movies or you can give him a gift card to walmart/target/etc...and let him pick out his own movie. (My kids love cash or gift cards, they are not offended by them at all!)
