It’s that time of the year where the Facebook statuses of moms gradually turn to, “gift ideas for an 8 year old?” or “What’s a great toy for toddlers?” Generally, we know what our own kids are into (though even that changes with the wind!) but when we have to buy for our nieces/nephews and other family, sometimes we are absolutely stuck.
If you have a little (sorry…big) guy on your list between the ages of 7-12 here are two items from Hasbro to put on your list!
Build your own city with the Police Station Zombie Defense set! Build a police station with a rotating gun turret and a combat vehicle with the 270 pieces! Includes parts for Zombie Bandit, Zombie Teen, Chief Zito, Sgt. Baker and Officer Quickdraw figures! Also includes parts for 1 mystery Kreon figure. Use your 5 motion bricks to make your Kreons move! Sonic Motion brick makes police sounds.
Get an all-new way to Let It Rip with the 2 exclusive battlers and arena in the all-in-one Octagon Showdown Battle Set! Pit your Samurai Ifrit Speed Attack battler against your Ronin Dragoon Range Attack battler! Change Warrior Weapon positions for different battle action. Switch Warrior Weapons and Shogun Tips among your BeyWarriors Battlers (other battlers sold separately) to see how different combinations change the way they battle. Octagon Showdown Beystadium arena has 2 entrance ramps! Set includes exclusive Octagon Showdown Beystadium arena, 2 exclusive BeyWarriors battlers, 2 collector cards, 2 ripcords and instructions.
Look for both these Hasbro items at places like Toys R Us, Walmart, Target and Real Canadian Superstore this holiday season.
My son would LOVE this but he LOVEs anything with wheels.. mostly tonka
other gift ideas for boys- LEGO & more LEGO
Any type of construction vehicle is great for my boys.
I liked your Gifts for Boys? Hasbro Has You Covered post.
Another great toy for boys is the Iron Man 3 – 12 inch Titan Hero Series Figure
and the Hot Wheels 3 wheel scooter combo.
Train sets are excellent gifts for boys. They like the sounds and lights, plus they can use their creativity with setting up different configurations for the tracks.
The Kre-o is awesome!! Wish I had these toys growing up. I like to get toys that brings out their creativity and imagination
this really seems to be the craze that kids want this year.
My daughter would love this
I think my son would love the Kre-o and I know he likes BeyBlades
zombies meet lego…how freaking cool is that
My son wants the KRE O lego set. Hasbro has such awesome toys
I wonder if Kreo and Lego are compatable??
My son would love the lego, hes really into building
Hasbro never disappoints
Hasbro sells many great games such as Monopoly Empire, JENGA Boom and Draw Something Party Game. Use different games and start a “Game Night” tradition. Memories are made on fun times! 🙂
I wish everyone was as easy to shop for as young boys!
This year I have been told anything with wheels from Mastermind is a safe bet. They have such amazing stuff there and we hit 2 of them on Friday. 1 last trip sometime this week. We found a great interactive car that had a pull back or remote control option – good for a 1-3 year old, but I can’t remember who makes it.
Leapster products – some of what I bought my son!
My son loves Kre-o and is wanting Beyblades for christmas too!
I have 2 little boys to buy Christmas gifts for and they would LOVE these…I personally like that they are action and imagination oriented toys too!
My little guys would love these! Thanks for the suggestions!
