This is proving more difficult than I first expected.

My half brother is 5 in January and I have no idea what to get him for Christmas or his birthday. I usually end up buying him clothes, and up until this year I've just bought whatever says age 3+ in Early Learning Centre as though he's very active he's a bit of a slow developer poor lad when it comes to talking and knowing things.

What do 5 year old boys do?!

He likes diggers and football if that's any help :)

is he into Doctor Who? Josh has just turned 6 & is Doctor Who mad, also loves football too, so what about buying him a nice football or a football annual or scarlf/bag?
go into your sports shops & have a look, get him something to do with the team he supports :D
 
Can 5 year olds appreciate books?

This shows I obviously don't see him enough :(



ps- his football team is Portsmouth btw :oops: blame my dad :oops:
 
Ooh If you're thinking of books get him "the Snail and the Whale" it's FAB!!!
 
I know Mason's a bit older than 5, but what do 5 year old boys actually do? Mason does quite a bit of stuff, but Robbie only properly strung sentences together this year.. :?

He started school this term, so should I assume he can read? Tell the time? (I've seen some cool clocks..) :think:

I feel like I should know, but I just don't.. :oops:
 
What's your budget?

Mason's into cars, drawing, cars, books, car magazines, movies, Top Gear, :think:

Hmm not really helping am I?...his mates are all into Spiderman, Transformers, Dr who etc but he's not interested at all.

What about a DVD, like Monsters Inc or Cars or something? I bet he's into the Cars movie and there's loads of merchandise for that about.
 
budget up to £30 :)

i'll have a looky for cars - good call i think :) i'll text me dads girlf to check he doesnt already have it.
 
my sons 5 in feb and he loves cars, books, drawing, dvds, he loves lego and anything toystory and he loves dressing up hope thats some help.
