Tween Boy Christmas Present Ideas

[Kiki]

Is he your kid?
If not, then ask Mom or Dad or maybe even him for ideas?

His ideas are crazy.
Like a motorcycle or a Great Dane or Husky puppy.
He's nuts.

I probably won't because I can't find one that looks like his current BB gun.
These CO2 things look too real for me.

I bought a CO2 one for my oldest, he is very responsible with it. It's a semi auto too. The youngest is allowed to use them when I or another responsible adult is with him. They're locked up when they're not in use.

I'm big into guns and gun safety. My DH is too. I've actually taken hunters safety and I'm going to be taking a self defense class soon.

My youngest said "I want a wolf for Christmas!"

Boys are silly.

Boys are silly.

I honestly am glad I have boys. I relate to boys more than girls who wear pink unicorn clothes.

I'm actually taking my youngest bow hunting next year. It's on my bucket list to take a buck down with him. My father is coming too so we will have 3 generations in the woods together.

I got my son a CO2 bb gun last year with a sling backpack and knife with other going on an adventure in the woods stuff. My youngest who is 11 spends tons and tons of money on virtual "stuff" and only wants games for Christmas.

[...] guns and gun safety.

Appropriate.

 

[FortCluck]

Appropriate.

Nothing bugs me more than people who own guns with zero knowledge of gun safety! It should be a requirement to take a gun safety class before you buy any gun. Gun safety is key. Kids find guns and think they're in a game, but don't realize the consequences of their actions... A family loses their family member and loved one.

I was so strict on my youngest with his air soft gun. I told him you never put your finger on that trigger unless you are pointing at what you want to hit and what you are trying to hit better be that target or you will face MY consequences on top of the police & judge...

He has a compound bow too. He has an amazing shot. I'm bringing him hunting next year. Some mom and son time plus my dad's coming. 3 generations hunting together.

I ordered a foam bean bag chair today.

I get you on the money, some people don't need cash to waste.
How about a nice game camera?
Big old pack of batteries?
Aviator googles? sports stuff signed by his favorite sports person? It depends on the kid, outdoorsy, gamer, reader etc?
