Hey guys, my nephew is turning 5 in a few weeks and I have no idea what to get him. Do any of you guys have a good idea of what to get him or what the hot toys out this season are for kids his age? I want to get him something that he will play with and not just collect dust in a corner. I bought him a marble racer for Christmas this past year and he didn't seem to interested in it when he opened up the present, and then he didn't want to play with it when it was assembled.
My sister is a little picky too on what he gets. It can't be anything too violent. I got him a decepticon transformer for his birthday last year, and then for his Christmas list she wrote "transformers (autobots only)". I personally didn't think it was too violent of a toy, but I'm not a parent so what do I know LOL.
I am trying to make it my goal to try and get him something semi-educational since no one else ever really makes an effort to him stuff like that except my other older sister. I think he has all of the Leap Frog stuff already, or most of it. I'd also prefer not to get him anything cowboyish/country since that is all my sister's in-laws get him. I think last year he got boots and spurs and some other things along those lines.
Any help is appreciated in my gift search!!
