I can’t believe it’s officially the holiday season. This list of 25+ of the best Christmas gifts for 8-year-old boys is HERE! Coming straight from A. So these toys and games are for kids 6-8. Now obviously Santa won’t be bringing all of these but he just kept raggling on and on about what he wanted so there’s a whole variety. Every time he sees something new he says he needs to have it.

So here are 25+ of a bunch of faves + requests for gifts for 6-year-old boys

Here are the Best Kids Christmas Gifts
1 // Toy Story Operation – Traditional board games don’t keep A’s attention span so finding games that move and make sound keep him more excited.

2 // Dino Stainless Steel Thermos: These are great for kids. Especially during school or sports days.

3 // Over the door basketball hoop: This is great for those basketball-loving kiddos. Plus it takes up less space.

4 // Kids Christmas Pj’s: Christmas Pajamas before and on Christmas Day. A definitely loves himself a pair of Christmas pj’s.

5 // Skidee Scooter: Scrolling through Amazon brings you to find some nifty products. I love the aspect that this offers a seat for kids. This one is for kids 2-12.

6 // LEGO Jurassic World Dilophosaurus on The Loose: Like any kid, LEGO is a must-have. Since JW is huge this is a good one that can be easily put together.

7 // Star Wars Scream Saber: With Star Wars about to hit their toys are too. This saber is pretty cool that you can talk into it. There are two versions but this one is the basic one.

8 // LEGO Jurassic World T. rex Dinosaur Fossil Exhibition 76940 Building Kit: I’m forever helping Avery build his. Since this is for 7+ this kit works great.

9 // PoKéMoN Electronic & Interactive My Partner Pikachu: I grew up on PoKéMoN so I thought it was pretty cool that they are bringing these back.

10 // Really Rad Robots: This is a great interactive and screen-free toy.

11 // Nerf Dino Squad Motorized Dart Blaster : This one is pretty school since it is motorized.

12 // T-Rex Rocks Electronic Skill Game: This is a great interactive game for dinosaur-loving kiddos.

13 // Raskullz T-Bone Child Helmet: A picked this one out himself.

14 // Jurassic World Indominus Rex: We got this last Summer and he loved it. His fave from his whole collection. It is a pretty big size but worth it.

15 // Dino Hard Suitcase: We travel so much and he has outgrown his small carry-on. He got a similar one a couple of years back and loved it. He still uses it.

16 // Holiday Kids Bath Bombs: These are so fun. A is always asking for flavor in his water.

17 // VTech KidiZoom Creator Cam: We got something similar last year since this was sold out last year. This one has a ton of features to this one for that little photographer in your life.

18 // Ryan’s World Mystery Experiments: I posted on Instagram about another Ryans World toy we got two years ago and he loved it.

19. Amazon Kids Echo Dot: If you’re a tech family this is great. Just add Freetime and you’re all set to go. Plus you can add your kid’s schedule, alarms, and more. You can control everything from the Alexa app.

20 // Lego Base Plate: If your kiddo loves playing with Legos then a base plate might be something they’ll enjoy when they take apart most of those lego sets.

21 // Sleeping Bag: This is genius. Especially with how cold it gets here in New England.

22 // Portable Basketball Hoop: This is a great starter basketball hoop.

23 // Captain Underpants Collection: We’re in the stage of independent reading and he loves Captain Underpants and Dog Man so this is perfect.

24 // Kids Microscope Beginner: Kids love science at this age. This is a great way to start.

25 // Spiderman Robe: Kids have to be cozy too right.

26 // Osmo Coding Starter Set : Avery has been into coding. We took a free coding class and he fell in love. He’s always asking me to set him up for a coding class. This would be a great starting place.

27 // Avery’s most requested gift for 2021 is the Oculus Quest 2 — Advanced All-In-One Virtual Reality Headset: We got him a Jurassic World VR set a couple years ago and loved it. This one he can pair with his XBOX if he wanted.

Dr. Kavitha
You have compiled a really great list. Kids are naturally adventurous and start exploring their surroundings more as they reach 6 year of age. The choice of toys for the should be such that it lets them have fun while learn about their surroundings at the same time.
