Birthday gift for a boy?

i'd say maybe a tonka truck or something. something sturdy.

the part of breaking stuff is not something you want to encourage

Depends upon the boy's age, type and the range of cost you want the product to be of.

Since you have posted the answer in games and recreation, i expect you want to buy a game.

Games can be of 3 types

Indoor - Outdoor - Computer

Indoor games can include some cool and addictive board games you may get for a reasonable price from funskool, mattel or some other good brand. [Be sure not to buy Barbies for him!]

For outdoor Games, Just see what the craze is!

if Football is the trend, Buy him a good nike football! [That might be expensive].

As of Video games

You can buy him a good game according to his age.

if he is below 10 - Buy him an E rated game

if he is above 10 - You can buy him a T rated Game

In case too big like 15 - Buy a 16+

You can see the rating on the bottom of the Box as ESRB RATING "E"

The more expensive the games are sold, the better they are!

So, You may buy a game for $2 or $ 20 - It makes a difference only if he is knowledgeble about gaming!

I bet the best keepsake you can give your baby is a handmade portrait or painting made from one of his most cute photos. Just send the photo(s) to the guys at http://www.paintyourlife.com/ and they will create wonders out of that innocent looking photo. You will definitely like it, and so will everyone who sees it. The service is fast and fairly priced. Take a look and judge for yourself!

The same company also has a studio for oil paintings reproductions. Visit them at http://www.oil-paintings-reproductions.com/ and have a look at their 'stock on sale' if you are looking for an affordable gift urgently.

Try a lawnmower that makes popping noise. Or a guitar. My nephew loved both he got this Xmas. I gave him the guitar.

This is what I got my son for his 2nd birthday and he loves it!

try one of those tunnels u crawl thru and have a door and a slide. it works for my 2 year old sis!

You already have good suggestions.So I just recommend a site.

I say you get him blocks. If you don't think that's good enough.....Buy Lego's if you don't like that either........ I definitely think you should get pretend cars for younger children.
