Toys for 7-10 year olds

[Lara310809]

My eldest has no interest in playing with toys anymore. She's only seven.

I'm wondering if she's just grown out of all of the toys we have at home. What do your kids, aged 7-10, play with? Boys toys too, she likes both

My 9 year old only really plays with wrestlers (he is obsessed with WWE) he doesnt really play with toys anymore, board games are really the only toys he plays with. He spends most of his time outside or playing his xbox/ipad.

My older son is nearly 7, and he doesn't play with toys very much anymore, either. He does for a little while, but mainly he prefers to just go outside and play, or to play on the iPad or his DS. Toys he plays with: Fidget spinner, Fidget cube, hexbugs, dominos, hot wheels, magformers, tinker toys

When I was 7 I didn't play with toys. I read books, rode my bike and ran around outside.

My son is nearly 5 and already barely plays with toys.

My eldest is seven and doesn't really play with toys much. Shopkins really, and DC dolls. That's all. She much prefers to be outside with her friends.

My 8 year old likes playing with her doll & pram. Drawing, arts & crafts are a big thing for my 8& 9 year old. Puzzles, they loves puzzles and games. I do have family games they aren't allowed free access of but also cheaper board games they can keep in their rooms.

With crafts if you have the space to be able to let them make a mess they love creating... just loads of stuff bottles card, glitter, gems, toilet rolls etc and let them make what they want.

But like every other kid my 2 have iPods (with rules) and my youngest (8) loves minecraft. We also have a dance game for them, it's active so kinda between game and keeping them on their feet.

^mine are the only two that I know of without devices of their own though we are considering for Christmas, we will see.

Hannah's almost 9. She loves Lego, reading and arts and crafts stuff. She never did much play with toys.

It's just not avoidable with their friends all on these stupid games etc. Started setting some hard rules for them now and keep a close eye on their apps. Megan was in trouble last week for changing her pin code, I don't have the code they don't have ipods!

My 7 yr old boy mostly plays with mine craft and sometimes his dinosaurs.

My 10yr old girl likes crafty things, looking at the lastest pop stars on you tube, and putting on make up
