When considering gifts for the 10-year-old boy you need to understand who he is and what he loves to do. Is he always outside? Riding his bike. Playing video games. Fishing with his dad. What excites and entertains him, then find something that offers education and stimulation. I always look for quality and versatility. What is the lifespan of the toy or item? Will he be tired of it in the first week or will he go back week after week and wear it out because he has used and enjoyed it. I want something that lasts and can be handed down to brothers, cousins or nephews.
