Need a cool gift suggestion for a 5 y.o. kid

ipso_facto · 12-04-2022, 03:42 AM

I think a five year old would appreciate some early 1980’s video games. The latest Atari Flashback would be great:

Isn't this the prime age for toy cars/trucks?

M-technik-3 · 12-04-2022, 05:26 PM

Lego's or Matchbox/HptWheels cars

sub compact glock? maybe a 33? great stopping power from the .357 sig

and for about $60 you can have a 3# trigger for his little hands

Dinosaurs. Lots of them!

The Visible V8 engine is back on the market after the Revelle tooling wore out years ago.

Great way for kids to learn and see how car engines work, so many moving parts.

I made 2 of them before I was 7, the spark plugs even fired!

They are at microcenter locations or online. Sku # 280198

My grandson will be sure to get one!

I have a bunch of these and the kids love them.

Train set or slot car race track? Thinking back to when I was 5 and dreaming while looking at the sears catalog.

Kolyan2k · 12-07-2022, 08:38 PM

Nice scooter, battery powered car (fast one), drone, Legos, watch (garmin makes for kids), digital camera (like Polaroid), Bruder car/truck toys (made in Germany), Snap Curcuits are cool. That's what my 4 year old has and kinda likes. If you ain't cheap, get DJI MIni 2

my kid broke it but he is 4, I got him cheap toy one at bestbuy, it's more fun than I expected.

My son had one of those when he was little.

Hey Dino, have you tried to use the Bimmerpost app lately?

Kolyan2k · 12-07-2022, 09:00 PM

Santa is brining some Picasso tiles (been playing with this for 2 years now, getting extra set) and Bruder firetruck. Last year Santa got expensive $400+ train set but he didn't like, sold it last month
