Friday Favorites: Gift Guide for Boys

Happy December friends! Can you believe that we are only 15 days away from Christmas? If you are like me and still have a couple people left on your Christmas list to shop for, then hopefully these gift guides can spur on ideas for those last few gifts! My boys or their cousins have all of the items on these lists and love every one of them–or they are getting them for Christmas this year, so if you are needing ideas for boys or active girls in your life that they will actually use, I’ve got your covered. We also have a couple winter birthdays coming up, so I’m going to snap up a few things for those celebrations while they are on sale!

DUDE PERFECT BOOK | Anything Dude Perfect is always a hit, but I love that this has all kinds of tips and tricks for creating your own trick shots…which is always a win in my book.
LASER TAG SET | If your boys don’t already have a set of laser tag guns, these provide hours of active play. We have this set, which is super affordable and have gotten tons of use out of it!
FOOTBALL | My sister’s 14-year-old son has this on his wish list.
PERCY JACKSON BOOK SET | Give the gift of good books and you will thank yourself the week after Christmas when everyone is quietly reading!
ACTION BIBLE & DEVOTIONAL | We are huge fans of the Action series around here. They are too graphic for little ones, but it’s my 11-year-old’s favorite bible to read (of course!) and he’s getting the devotional for Christmas.
SKI BACKPACK | This is a great gift for an avid skier to pack a snack, waterbottle, and other essentials for a day on the slopes! Yep, this is going under the tree.
GLOW CITY BASKETBALL | Boys love light up anything and these are so much fun for night play!
TABLE TENNIS | We have this set and it’s gotten hours of action. It saved our winter last year and I would buy the same one again because its held up so well and folds up easily to store. If you can afford to, buy a good quality set so it will last for years of play!

EXPLODING KITTENS | Small games make a great stocking stuffer and this one has been on Ashton’s list for a couple of years, so we finally snapped it up!
INDOOR POP-A-SHOT | ESPN’s indoor basketball game is on sale. I love that it has LED lights and Arcade sound effects.
SUSHI GO | Such a fun, easy family game.
STAR WARS LEGOS | Legos are one of our favorite gifts because they are an activity the boys can build together.
WINTER COAT | Christmas is a great time to gift a few things that the kids actually need…like a warm coat!
ADIDAS BEANIE | Love this beanie! Such a fun print for winter.
WATERBOTTLE | My kids love a good quality waterbottle for everything from school to sports.
LED STRIP LIGHTS | We have these in our downstairs and everyone loves to go down there for dance parties and late-night basketball.
DUDE PERFECT FRISBEE | Under $11 and such a fun color…my boys love running around outside with this frisbee.

My big boys have also been playing a lot of AirSoft in the orchard this year, so these are items on their Airsoft wish list…

MASK | RIFLE | GLOVES | PISTOL

I don’t think you can go wrong with any gift that gives our kids a reason to get outside or gather with friends and family. Spending time together playing card games, board games, basketball, laser tag, and even sardines are at the top of my list during Christmas break. I hope a few of these ideas help you finish up the Christmas shopping for your loved ones! Have a wonderful week!
