I was looking for cool gifts ideas for boys. With Christmas approaching, I want to buy them useful gifts that will last them all year. I also wanted to avoid “toy” type gifts because my kids have way too many toys.
I’ve been eliminating the toys in our home. My kids are down to one tote per kid. The gifts I’ve chosen are items that would be fun, educational or provided some type of physical activity.
Here are my top choices of cool gift ideas for boys: All of these items are less than $50.00 too! Note: Prices can change at any time.
Inline Skates are fun for boys. My boys use them to race around the block with their friends and they also use it to play hockey in the streets.
Goal Set – If your kids love hockey, try this goal set.

Walkie Talkie Radios 4 pack – When my kids are having their Nerf war with their friends, walkie talkies are really fun, since they can strategize their hiding spots and attacks.
