What are 7yr old boys into (gift ideas please!)

[SarahH]

I'm trying to get organised for Christmas and first thing I MUST do is get Brian's sister and family in Australia gifts sorted to get them sent ASAP.

What can I get his nephew who is 7? I am going to get him a pair of Pyjamas (shorts & T-shirt style as it is summer over there) with either Disney's Cars or Spiderman on it - some sort of character....

...but what sort of toy can I put in for him, preferably not massive weight for shipping it over.

Brian keeps saying just to send money, but that is no fun... all kids like parcels to open on christmas

how about a toy from cars or summit ?

Lego is always good. It's fun and lightweight and boys love it at any age. (That's why I'm getting this for the big kid that is my bloke...)

Ooooh, that is sooooo cool!!! I actually want it for myself!!

Think I might get that for him too! But then that isn't a pressie as he needs that from the first

Well my little boy is nearly 6 and all the kids at school seem to be into Ben 10, it's a cartoon on cartoon network but they have loads of action figures and stuff, all the kids are mad on it.

The lego advent calanders are fab £15 but fab, my DS has one every year and you get a little scene every day cant reccommend it enough.

I agree lego is fab also for themes i wouldnt do spiderman and cars unless you know he likes them as they are a bit young maybe Ben 10, Dr who would be better?

Science type kits are fab or lots of little bits and bobs from hawkins bazaar in a gift box?
