10 Year Old Boys Gift Guide

You asked and I answered! Shopping for 10 year old boys is TOUGH. Hudson asked for just two things for his birthday so it took a little extra energy to figure out what he would want. The good news is all of the items I’m sharing today are 10 year old boy approved! Click the item descriptions below to shop!

1. CuberSpeed Twist. This is like a Rubik’s cube but it’s twisted. Super fun and a big hit!

2. Pokemon Cards. You really can’t go wrong with Pokemon cards for boys. This set had a lot of good cards in it according to Hudson.

3. Magic Puzzle. Hudson LOVES these puzzles. They are so cool…they have a surprise element to them that I won’t spoil for you…but trust me, this puzzle is awesome. Hudson loved the surprise and I enjoyed it too.

4. Remote Control All-Terrain Off-Road Car. This is pretty cool and was a HUGE hit. It goes up to 25 miles per hour!

5. Nike Flex Runners. Hudson isn’t really into clothes but loves shoes! These are no-tie which is important because 10 year old boys don’t like to waste time tying their shoes!

6. Glitter Ball. I found this randomly and Hudson really loved it! It’s big and squishy, and perfect for a 10 year old.

7. Telescoping Magnetic Pickup Tool Set. Okay, hear me out on this one. This is the MOST random thing but probably one of the gifts Hudson loved the most. My mom picked it up for him and we all got such a big kick out of how much he enjoyed it. It’s a extending tool set that helps you pick up random objects with an extending mirror and light…it would come in handy if you needed to repair something and couldn’t fit your hands in there…but Hudson just uses it to goof around.

8. Nerf Vortex Aero Howler. I didn’t get Hudson this for his birthday because he already has it. We have also given it as a gift a few times…always a hit! You can’t go wrong with a Nerf ball.

9. Genius Star Game. This is one of Hudson’s favorite gifts and such a fun game to play! It’s a puzzle you race to complete by using different shapes…and it really makes you think. We’ve all become addicted to this one! If you are looking for a unique gift for a 10 year old, this is the one!

10. Marquee Light Up Letter. This is quickly becoming my go-to gift. It comes with a remote control so you can change the color of the lights. So cool!

11. Glove Glu. Hudson is a goal keeper on his soccer team so I thought this would be cool. Finding a sports accessory for a 10 year old is always a win.

12. Soccer Stickers. These are cool on journals, notebooks, water bottles, you name it!

 13. Adidas Slides. These are super comfy and have an adjustable width.

14. Fidget Box. This is one of Hudson’s favorite things. A big old box of fidgets!

15. Skateboard. Hudson has had this board for a few years now and still loves it. It holds up really well and is super affordable.

It really is true when they say the days are long It really is true when they say the days are long but the years are short. One day I’m struggling to carry two babies at a time while wrangling a toddler and then next minute they are all off to school and practices and friends’ houses. With all three kids in school we’ve been thinking a lot about their futures and how we are going to one day pay for college. We set up a Michigan Education Trust 529 plan for each of our kids when they were babies and I am SO happy we did! With a MET account, we can pay for future college tuition at today’s prices. With MET’s discounted age-based pricing the earlier you start, the more you are able to save! Plus grandparents and other loved ones can contribute to my kids’ accounts too! With MET you get back what you put in if your child chooses a different path and the money goes with you if your child goes to school out of state. You can even transfer it to immediate family members and all contributions to MET plans are tax deductible! To learn more about how to set up a MET account and the benefits of starting your child’s account early, check out my stories or the link in my bio. @mieducationtrust #sponsored #SETwithMET #MI529 #collegesavings #METSept2023
