Gift Ideas for 8-9 Year Old Boys

It’s Hudson’s birthday next week (eeekkk!!! How do I have an almost 9 year old?!?) and I know boys can be hard to shop for! Today I’m sharing some fun gift ideas for boys…just click on the numbers below the photo to shop! 

1. Dog Crimes Game. This sounds like a fun game we all can play together. They make a Cat version too!

 2.Jurassic Park Classic Set. Hudson has been getting into Jurassic Park lately and my husband loved this original movie version of the toy.

3. NERF Vortex Aero Howler Foam Ball. This throws really far and looks fun!

 4. Plants vs. Zombies Nintedo Switch Game. Hudson (and his sisters) love this silly game and love to play it together!

5. Pokemon Card Binder. Hudson is obsessed with Pokemon cards and I thought this would be fun for him to store them all in one place.

6. Nike Slip on Shoes. Hudson doesn’t like tying his shoes so these are perfect for him…plus they come in big kid sizes.

7. Watermelon Ball. This ball fills up with water, sinks to the bottom of the pool, and then rises. We are always on the lookout for unique pool toys and I think this will be a hit!

8. Snorkel Set. Hudson has this exact set and it’s great!

9. Pokemon Elite Trainer Box. Hudson asked for Pokemon cards for his birthday (which are super hard to come by right now) but this fun set was in stock and looks cool!

10.The Last Firehawk. Hudson just started reading this series and it’s a great chapter book option for 2nd/3rd grade!

11. Jurassic Park Dino Set. What’s not to love?

12. Pro Kick. This holds a football so you can practice kicking it and not be like Charlie Brown. 

13. Disney Code Names. This game sounds like so much fun for the entire family!

14. Bop It! I’m always looking for something Hudson can play on his own and I think this might be super fun for him.
