I'm struggling here figure some of you guys are doing the same.
Kiddo wants a PS5. No offense to kiddo - but he's got a switch, that's good enough And he doesn't need more excuses for more screen time.
Been waffling between a mongoose e-scooter - figuring that'll get him outside more. They're 330$
Lego boost - because he adores the weekly 30 min programming lesson at school... And at least weekly he's crafting together some kind of robot. This ones 280$ which seems insanely high to me but it's lego so...
Also see it's on a couple of the 'in demand' christmas presents lists for this year - but still available on amazon.
We've done a bit of playground drone racing too - the weaving through the swings has resulted in some now borderline functional (toystore quality) quads, so maybe time to eyeball an upgrade. He loves those, and gets him out of the house (but not away from the screen).
Anyone run across something cool / found something the kiddo's really like to actually use (more than the box for crafts) to suggest?
