    I'm looking to buy something for my nephew, but the thing is he pretty much has all he wants. His interests are toy guns, army stuff and video games. I considered buying him some physical memorabilia from video games he likes, but I doubt he would appreciate it as he only really likes them as video games anyway and not really being a major fan of any particular title. So my question is, what do the 8-10 year old kids in your lives enjoy?

    Every boy I know loves Legos! There are so many kits you can buy. And they don't need batteries, just an imagination!
    Or army men/sets. My sons love those.
    It's so hard when they get hooked on those video games. I would try to steer him in another direction.
    What about something the two of you did together? A day trip maybe? To a zoo? Or a museum? Just something other than a toy.

    Legos is a great idea, even though they are a little expensive, i think they are worth the price for the amount of fun you can have with them. If you want to spend the smallest then just go to a dollar shop and get a bunch of stuff, kids love a bunch of stuff!

    My nephews love video games and action figures. But they love to tinker with smartphones and tablets nowadays.
