Each child, regardless of age, is waiting for the New Year with special feeling, because on a holiday he will receive a gift from Santa Claus. In this article we will look at the ideas of New Year's gifts for nine-year-old boys, tell you what to look for when choosing, and what gifts to give should not be.
Age features
At nine, boys are still children. They are active, inquisitive, often spend time with friends and love to make a row. At this age it is especially pleasant to receive as a gift something boyish than it will be possible to boast to their peers, as well as give an opportunity to have fun. Unfortunately, to surprise the boys of nine years is not so easy.
At this age, they are no longer interested in soft toys and other typically children's gifts, they need something more serious. Should take into account the fact that at this age, children begin to guess about the real sources of their gifts and the absence of the magic Santa Claus, which brings presents to good children. The boy will be very grateful to his parents for a good gift, which he had long dreamed of.
By the way, at this age it is already getting a bit boring to find a gift under the tree every time. To slightly diversify the process of receiving a gift, think up a little quest. Let the boy find a small box in wrapping paper under the Christmas tree, and inside - a note with holiday greetings and a couple of chocolates. The note should have a hint to the next place.
Try to organize the quest so so that the child had to go around about five places and at the very end to find his long-awaited gift. Each note should have puzzles, riddles and other tasks, the answers to which will indicate the place of the next clue.
The boy will pass all the tests with enthusiasm and will be doubly happy to receive his New Year's gift.
What is not worth giving?
There is a certain category of things that are not worth giving.
- Computer game shooter. Psychologists have long argued about the harmful effects on children of such games, they cause aggression, and even a good boy can turn into a real monster. It is better to get something calmer, but no less interesting.
- Another dangerous gift is fireworks. Even adults should not give such a thing, let alone children, it will not bring them any benefit.
- Do not give a penknife or a pistol with bullets in any case., a boy can cause physical harm not only to himself, but also to friends, and this can happen quite by accident, and the donor will be guilty, that is, you.
- Of the taboo gifts, it is also worth highlighting clothing and accessories for the school. Boys do not like to fashion, preferring jeans and a t-shirt to any nifty outfits. Of course, clothing is considered one of the most practical gifts, but not the most joyful for a boy of nine. The same applies to school subjects. Office, notebooks, books, pencil cases - all this is given on September 1, but not on the New Year.
- It is not recommended to give such a fashionable unit as a hoverboard. Whatever joy he brings to a child, it is dangerous to use it. Nine-year-old boys are still not so good in their coordination, so the purchase will have to be postponed to a later age.
Gift selection rules
When choosing a New Year's gift for a 9-year-old boy, try to focus on his taste preferences and hobbies. At this age, the guys already, as a rule, decided on their hobbies and hobbies, so it’s easy to find a present.
- If a boy is keen on boxing and wants to learn how to fight, the best choice will be punching bag with gloves included. He will be able to train independently at home, and the rack itself will not take up much space in the room.
- If a child likes to surprise others and watch their reaction, an excellent gift for him will be set of a magician with a hat, magic wand and other accessories. Nine-year-old will be happy to sit down after the instruction, learn new focus, and then run and show everything to friends.
- A rare boy is not fond of football. Pay attention to things with football symbols, as a gift suitable sports uniform of your favorite football player, scarf, hat, wallet and other accessories of your favorite team. In addition, you can donate a branded ball.
Before buying the products listed above, be sure to inquire about the team for which the son is sick, and also find out your favorite player. It will be very disappointing to get a Messi uniform as a gift when you support Neymar. Specify the size of the clothes so that the uniform or sneakers are fit, and not for growth or are small at all.
Whatever gift you choose for the New Year, remember that you are purchasing it for a child, not for yourself, so be guided by his or her wishes, not your opinion.
