Are you trying to find the perfect gift for a 9 year old boy?
When your child gets invited to another child’s birthday party, do you find yourself texting the child’s mom asking, “Hey! What is Johnny playing with these days?”
If you’re anything like me, I want to be sure that he enjoys the gift, the gift is fun to play with and doesn’t get thrown into the back of the toy closet after one use.
This is why I have created a list of ten gift ideas for the 9 year old boys in your life.
Gifts That Any 9 Year Old Boy Would Love
Picking out a gift that interests a 9 year old boy can be difficulty sometimes,. Kids can be tricky with their interests. So I’ve created a list with a little bit of everything in mind. (Although, I don’t think you can go wrong choosing anything on this list!)
There is something for sports lovers, readers, science enthusiasts and definitely for the child that enjoys playing outdoors.
1. Laser Tag Set
This game is fun because you can play it both indoors and out. The kids can run around the house hiding behind furniture or in bedrooms as they try to eliminate their enemy. Or they can turn on the cool LED lights and play laser tag in the backyard at night.
The vests and laser guns light up when you hit your target and the gun makes noises when it’s shot. People of any age can play laser tag so it can be fun with friends or family. You can even buy additional vests and laser guns to have up to 4 teams playing together.
2. Legos
Every 9 year old boy loves Legos so you can’t go wrong with this next gift idea! Plus, it’s not just Legos; it’s Legos that turn into a car! What boy isn’t going to love to build their own car??? The Lego Technic Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 is just one of many options in the Lego Technic series. There are almost 580 pieces that are used to build and create this fun gift. The best part is that you can continue playing with it once the building is complete.
The Corvette has working steering and pistons. And it can be built into a hot rod as well!
3. Dog Man Books
If your 9 year old boy enjoys reading, looking at pictures and likes to laugh, then the Dog Man book series is for him! There are 10 graphic novels in this series and he will want to read them over and over again. The silliness and humor in these books make for an entertaining reading experience.
4. Electric Scooter
Every 9 year old boy wants to play outside! Why not gift him an electric scooter? He’ll have hours of fun rolling around the driveway, cul-de-sac or local trails on the Razor Core E90 Glow Electric Scooter. This scooter will go up to 10mph and has LED glow lights to light up his ride. The scooter is rechargeable, has a hand-operated front brake and a kickstand.
5. Battleship
This next gift is going to bring us back in time a little bit. Do you remember playing Battleship when you were young? I remember playing this classic game for hours with my dad on the living room floor. I would yell, “You sank my battleship!” just like they did on the commercial. Well, this strategic game is just as fun today as it was back then!
Your 9 year old will have to use his critical thinking skills while attempting to sink his opponent’s fleet. And the game can be enjoyed not only by 9 year old’s but people of all ages.
6. Hover Soccer Ball
If the 9 year old boy in your life loves playing soccer and insists on kicking that soccer ball into your baseboards and walls inside the house, I have the perfect gift for you (and him)! The hover soccer ball is a light up, rechargeable ball that hovers on smooth surfaces as the child kicks it around the house.
Children can play with friends or play by himself as the padded ball will hover right back to him when it bounces off a surface. The best part is no more scuffed baseboards!
7. Beyblades
This next gift idea is for the competitive 9 year old. The Beyblade stadium with 2 Beyblades and 2 Beyblade launchers is the ultimate gift for a 9 year old boy. You will be considered the “coolest” person ever when giving this! Beyblades are a cool toy that can be launched into the Beyblade stadium in order to battle with the other Beyblades or just to do tricks in the stadium.
Boys will have hours of fun launching their Beyblades at different angles, speeds and learning new trick launches. There are many different Beyblade topper options so the child can add onto his Beyblade set for years to come.
8. Sticky Darts
What is more fun than being able to throw balls inside the house? This sticky ball dart game allows your 9 year old to do just that! The game comes with a 2-sided, colorful dart board that can easily be hung on the wall. He and friends or family throw the 12 sticky balls to get the highest points to win the game. The best part is that you can stick the balls to the hanging game board when done so they don’t lose the balls around the house.
9. Robot Kit
If you have a 9 year old STEM lover, this is the coolest gift ever! The Solar Robot kit can be built into 14 different robots and is powered by either the sun or batteries. This toy will stimulate your 9 year-old’s creativity, enthusiasm for science and provide hours of building. I can’t think of a better way to encourage a child to use their imagination!
10. LED Airplane Launcher
And last but not least, I’ve included another outdoor gift option. The LED foam airplane launcher set provides individual fun or fun with a friend! This gift set comes with 2 LED foam airplanes that can be launched by a launching gun or can be thrown to glide in the air.
This is fun to play with both during the day and at night. The airplanes are capable of doing flips, tricks and then gliding down for the perfect landing.
As you can see, there are many gift options for the 9 year-old boy out there. Hopefully, this list provides something no matter what they’re into, enjoy playing with and sparks their interest. If you have any other great gift ideas, be sure to drop them in the comments below. Happy shopping!
