Need suggestions on a Christmas gift for my Nephew...

[amyandelle]

Hi Mama's,
Our Nephew is 5 years old and I have no clue what to buy him for Christmas. My SIL said that he likes Arts and Crafts. I am going to be spending around $25 do you have any suggestions?
Thanks,
Amy

I'm not sure what he already has, if he is into arts & crafts.

You could consider a collage box--- with sequins, glitter, foam pieces, puff balls, etc...

DS really likes all kinds of building toys (legos, k'nex, lincoln logs, geomagz).

Painting stuff? Either those ones that dab the paint on, or a whole set of nice paints?

this is what i did for my niece... i went to a dollar store, and got: construction paper, cotton balls, glue, popsicle sticks, sparkles, scissors that cut a wavy line, markers, paints, etc... all for $1 each!

I made her a nice art box for under $15.

I don't know your budget but my nephew is also five and into the same thing - so we got him a Stanley wood-working bench with actual metal tools that came with projects he can build - I got it at Costco for $39.00. He's going to LOVE it!
