TOP—7. What to give to a child 9, 10, 11 years old. Selection for boys and girls 2021.

Ten years is the first serious anniversary in a child’s life. Just yesterday, a son or daughter was/was a child, and today he/she is practically a teenager. At this age, children already feel like adults, but at heart they still continue to remain children, so on their birthday they look forward to gifts from their parents and other relatives.

For creativity

• Set of a young artist. The artist's creative kit includes all the necessary tools to create masterpieces of fine art. The child will be able to discover hidden talents in himself and better understand whether he likes to engage in such a craft.
• Set for drawing on water. Drawing on water is a rather unusual art technique that attracts children. No child will refuse to create various pictures on the surface of the water using special paints.
• Puzzle. There are both small pictures and full-fledged canvases that will take more than one day to collect. At the same time, the delight of completing work on such a canvas is difficult to convey in words.
• Sawing kit. Boys in most cases are very interested in using various tools. So the kit for cutting shapes seems attractive. These kits teach basic techniques for using small saws and other equipment.
• 3D pen. A relatively recent invention, which is a special pen with which you can create a variety of three-dimensional shapes. Everything here is limited only by imagination, so using a 3D pen will help reveal the child’s inclinations.
• Kinetic sand. Kinetic sand differs from regular sand in that it takes the desired shape much more easily. Thus, extensive opportunities open up for the child to create various buildings or sand castles that can stand for a long time.

The selection of products now makes it easy to choose both an inexpensive gift for a 10-year-old boy and a rather expensive one. There is an opportunity to please your child with any amount of money. The main thing is to take into account the boy’s inclinations in advance and choose something that will really be interesting to him.

Little things that will always come in handy

It happens that a 10-year-old boy needs to make a symbolic present for some unimportant occasion. Then you need to take into account what boys of this age will like. Such things will be good when they are given by a child from whom they do not expect anything expensive.

Among these gifts:

• original piggy banks;
• flashlights and batteries with mains charging;
• lamps - night lights, interesting table lamps;
• key rings, stands for mobile phones;
• finger bikes (fingerbikes), miniature skateboards.

It doesn’t matter how much it costs to buy such an item, as long as the boy likes it. The main thing is to emphasize his passion, to show the importance of this activity at this age.

Constructors

In particular, the LEGO Technic 42053 Volvo EW 160E Excavator set develops logic, thinking and motor skills.

Wish come true

Every boy at such a time has a cherished desire . You need to carefully find out about it and try to fulfill it on the day of your 10th anniversary. This gift will definitely be remembered. Perhaps the desire is related to a trip somewhere, a trip on a boat, buying a bicycle, a tablet.

You can fulfill your child’s wish in a solemn atmosphere, with cheerful music, in the circle of friends and relatives. If a wish cannot be fulfilled at a given time, then it is postponed for some time. You just need to tell the child that his desire is known.

Jokes and comic gifts

Their goal is to create real holiday fun. The following are suitable funny original gifts:

• an alarm clock called a "bomb", in which the alarm sounds resemble exploding shells;
• desktop version of the punching bag;
• laces, nipples for a bicycle tube with a lighting effect;
• latex masks;
• a special ostrich pillow for sleeping; it is made in the form of a bag with holes. You can stick your head and hands inside and, like an ostrich, isolate yourself from the outside world. This pillow is quite popular among teenagers;
• items of clothing and shoes with jokes. You can give a boy a hat that has a beard; sneakers called “a la tanks”, which look like a real type of equipment with a barrel and wheels;
• Koschey costume, socks with white bones painted on a black surface.

Pet

If you decide to give a pet, then first make sure that the boy and the parents are not afraid of animals. As a gift, you should think about choosing:

· a fashionable breed puppy (beagle, king charles spaniel, toy terrier, yorkshire terrier, jack russell terrier);

· kitten;

· small rodents and predators (rat, ferret, hamster);

· bird (parrot, canary);

· fish.

Raising a pet will make the boy more responsible, caring, and kind. This is a great opportunity to give a friend with whom he will spend his free time. An important part of parenting is caring for and feeding a pet.

Electronics

• Tablet. A universal gift that will be a great surprise for any child. Using your tablet, you can watch your favorite cartoons, play games, or use educational resources. Many children actively use it for drawing, thus cultivating their own talent.
• Flash drive. A useful device on which you can record any information from your computer. A flash drive will always be in use for an active PC user, which is the majority of modern children.
• Smart watch. A very impressive and at the same time useful gift. Smart watches look extremely attractive to children. With their help you can track the time, read messages or even make calls. Parents will especially appreciate the child location tracking feature.
• Headphones. Watching a movie or listening to music from various media is difficult to imagine without headphones. So good reproducing equipment will always find use for a child. You can choose both classic wired models and special wireless ones for sports.
• Graphics tablet. Not just a gift, but a real investment in the future. With the help of a graphics tablet, a child will be able to realize his creative potential and start drawing. Perhaps this is what he will do best, and then it may even turn into a full-fledged profession.
• EBook. Reading is actively spreading among children. Books help to better understand the rules of the Russian language, expand vocabulary and significantly increase a child’s erudition. Instead of ordinary paper books, you can give a convenient electronic instrument that can store a large number of works at once.

What gifts should you not give?

Not all gifts may please a child, because the birthday boy always expects some original, interesting and useful gifts for his birthday. Therefore, it is important to understand what gifts should not be given:

1. gifts related to studies - notebooks, pens, pencil cases, backpacks and other similar things should not be given for a birthday. These are ordinary items that are not valuable to the birthday person;
2. low-quality Chinese toys that quickly break and harm the child’s health;
3. casual clothes - you can give suits, dresses, T-shirts, but only if the giver knows the tastes of the birthday person;
4. toys that are not appropriate for their age, for example, baby dolls, plastic cars, etc.

It is important not only to choose a suitable and desired gift for a child’s 10th birthday, but also to present it correctly. You need to take care of beautiful packaging with a bow. You can attach helium balloons, a musical card, a fluttering butterfly, etc. to the gift box. And be sure to include some sweetness with the main gift: be it a custom-baked cake, a box of chocolates or a chocolate bar. And for the birthday girl, order a bouquet of flowers.

What parents and children think about gifts: survey results

The opinions of parents and children regarding gifts do not always coincide, and sometimes can cause resentment and tears. Parents rely on their experience and they “know better what their child needs,” and children want to enjoy life “here and now.” It is important for them to be in trend, the opinions of friends matter to them, they are surrounded by persistent advertising. When mutual understanding and trust reign in the family, choosing a gift turns into a real pleasure for parents.
