Since Ive offered him pretty much everything (under reasonable prices) like all kinds of games, ball games, skate etc, he also has a bike so I’m totally out of ideas
last gift was a cheap xiaomi sports bracelet which he loved, but now I don’t know how to up it…
A pair of socks? He only shows much love for me near the seasons 😂 so I told him santa was watching (of course he doesn’t believe in santa anymore). I might prank him but I need a backup gift, so… title
A GoPro and brackets to mount it to stuff so he can film himself
Great idea but over budget. Don’t want to open a precedent 😅
Any thought on giving just an action camera which is not specifically gopro? I think you’ll find plenty in 30€
I’ll look into that, thanks
You could split the cost with other family members to make it a little more reasonable
Mother. Fuckin. Rollerblades.
He’s into skate now, but yeah, that crossed my mind, except to give him something decent would go over budget. Trying to keep it 30€ tops But thanks 🙏
I just want to say you are the greatest. In reddit this question would be ignored, but here I have my hands full just keeping up with replying. I have to sleep now as I have to wake early tomorrow but wow, you’re the best 😘
Drag race, sitting near the beginning where you feel the cars take off.
Indoor skydiving.
Again thanks for everyone’s suggestions. Some of you I didn’t reply cause I isn’t applicable for where I live and I wasn’t expecting so many good replies. But I appreciate it immensely, I have a lot to think about.
You have made my day
Tickets to amateur wrestling/any sport. My dad brought me to wwf wrestling as a kid and it was such a blast. Tickets to any live sports/teams that he’s into will blow his mind. Or people pizza and lazer tag is always fun imo and very budget friendly.
Do you have any rock climbing gyms near you? Could get a punch card to one.
I’ve thought about building a climbing wall at my parents house, they have the space, but maybe for a future project. I would like one myself 😅
Time to justify it by giving your nephew a punch card to YOUR climbing wall!
2 day old post, so didn’t skim to check, but if nobody mentioned slacklining, you should check it out. It’s super cheap to get into, and it’ll teach balance and build core strength which will translate into a million other hobbies.
Hmm, sounds like an experience gift would go over well! I’m in the US but some cool stuff you could try giving him gift cards or tickets to?
- Waverider, which is sort of like surfing but you don’t have to go to the beach
- Renting an ATV for few hours to drive out on a trail
- One of those BMX tracks for bikes instead of motorcycles
- Indoor skydiving Sorry if none of these are under budget, I haven’t done any of these in forever so couldn’t tell you what the price is.
jump boxes
Gonna have to google that. Anything like a trampoline? Cause he has that already, the cheap small variety
Something like this. Not springy but rigid. They sometimes come in a set of increasing heights so you can train your jumping height/endurance/speed/etc. A great thing to have if he’s at all interested in track and field, basketball, skateboarding, parkour, or really any sport that involves jumping.
I used to have a blast working on my jumping when I was in high school. It’s a crazy good workout and feels good to progress in I think.
I know you can get them at Walmarts and Dick’s if those exist where you are but they’re sold many places I’m sure.
He already has one 🤷♂️
damn that boy is stocked up on equipment. maybe tickets to a sports game for the two of you if he’s into that?
Could you build a wood racecar like they use in the soapbox derby? I saw plans online, the kits are a couple hundred USD, but you might be able to build a cheaper one from scratch…
When I was his age we built those from scratch using wood and roller barings from car wheels. And slingshots, cross bows. We could also use bb guns easily cause there was one in every home. Fun times, I don’t know how we survived.
Welp the ones who didn’t aren’t posting ; )
Potatoe Cannon (less than 30$, can assist him in print out together so he knows how to fix it!) or pogo stick? (Both equally unsafe imo)
Unicycle
Now that’s thinking outside the box. Not sure the parents would approve and sounds expensive. But another one for my box of ideas, thanks
A slack line? Maybe over budget
Stuff to build skate features, or wax for waxing curbs
If he lives by snow, a park rake is super cool for building snow features. It like makes a perfect jump for you.
G-form (knee)pads maybe lame, but by far the most comfortable protection I’ve ever worn.
A knife, 10 year old me would spend hours widdling sticks, trying to make wooden swords and stuff
3d printed nerf guns are amazing now. If you have access
What’s your budget? I’ve been looking into ropes course kinds of things for my kids, basically slack lines that you can add stuff to. I think if you search for ninja line you’ll get hits.
30€ around that for budget. Definitely gonna search ninja lines, thanks for the hint.
