Boys are never particularly difficult to buy for as they always
seem to be quite vocal about what they want for Christmas. In fact you may have
been holding onto a Santa’s list since the summer! However, when it comes to
Christmas you always want to get a couple of things that your child will not
expect, so you can watch the look of joy pass over their face as they unwrap
something really unexpected and special. Here are five of the best boys toysfor this year.
Transformers Power Bots - ***
Although these toys are from the Transformers movie, they don’t
actually transform, which is good news for those with very small children.
Instead they have plenty of lights and buttons which make them exciting and
enjoyable to play with, as well as more durable than toys which need to be
taken apart and put back together. Because it is also tied in with the
Transformers movie it would be perfect for a movie fan as well!
Kung Zhu Battle Arena - ****
A great gift for those with more than one child, the Kung Zhu
Battle Arena sets kids up to battle between themselves in a small but exciting
arena, with coloured ninja hamsters! Boys can enjoy battling each other in a
way which is unlikely to end up in broken bones or tears, as enjoy the funny
and quirky side to the game as well.
Paper Jamz Instant Rock Star Drums - *****
The perfect toy for a budding musician, the Instant Rock Star
Drums are a great way for boys to make a lot of noise and learn a new skill
without irritating the entire family. These drums have a helpful headphone
socket so kids can hone their skills and learn each song, before showing off
their new skills to the entire family! The Paper Jamz range also has plenty of
other instruments to learn and play with so perhaps pick out a couple and keep
your child amused for hours!
Playmobil Pirate Ship - ****
A classic design which has been around for years but continues
to delight boys of all ages, the Playmobil Pirate Ship is perfect for little
boys with an interest in pirates, or even just those with an adventurous
streak. The best thing about this set is that it is large enough to offer
plenty of room for playing with siblings or friends, and has plenty of features
and surprises to keep kids amused for hours as they explore.
Editor’s Choice - Star Wars Boba Fett Helmet - *****
A surprisingly durable Star Wars themed helmet, although this
item isn’t likely to do much else than be worn around, the fact that it is
hugely realistic and feel amazingly comfortable is bound to make it your little
boy’s favourite Christmas present of the lot. In fact you may struggle to get
him to take it off!
