Your lads are lucky!
We used to get 6 of the cane in school!! :(

Seriously though, Meccano, Lego, Chemistry sets, or board games that involve other members of the family. Basically anything which stimulates rather than something that involves just pushing buttons at speed!

they have so much lego !!! most nights i spend with a pair of tweezers removing bits of lego from the soles of my feet !!!!


But i agree, i want to educate and have fun with them....
 
You only live once!

We often have games of chess, card games and Trivial Pursuit.
Also all avid readers.

Their time is limited on the comp/lappy. And one has the idea a phone is to talk with not chat and spend hours on it :D
 
Surely, rather than limitting their time, you should be getting them to design apps and websites..?



But anyway, any present ideas anyone?
