What are cool toys for boys age 11?

For 11-year-old boys, cool toys include the latest tech gadgets like drones and smart robots, challenging STEM kits, and exciting remote-controlled cars. Consider action figures from their favorite movies or games, complex building sets, or engaging strategy board games. Anything that sparks their interests and keeps them active and entertained is a win!

What are the best hobbies for an 11 year old boy?

Whilst it's easy to allow 11 year olds to play video games and watch TV, it's so important that they find something that they love! Take time and introduce them to new classes, where they can meet new friends. You can even try out new hobbies as a family such as swimming or gardening! 11 Year olds are building social structures as well so remember to buy them gifts that will help with this.

What is a typical 11 year old boy like?

At 11, boys are navigating a confusing mix of childhood and adolescence. They crave more responsibility but may feel insecure about their abilities. This age can be challenging, so support their involvement in extracurricular activities to boost their confidence. Encourage them to explore their passions, whether it's a sport, a hobby, or a game, and remind them that the fun matters more than winning.

At this stage, they may become avid debaters, questioning chores or screen time limits with intense arguments. Be firm but fair with your rules. Despite their attempts to seem grown-up, remember that they're still kids at heart. They might claim toys are 'babyish,' but they’ll still secretly enjoy them, and they'll always appreciate a good bedtime tuck-in.

11 year old boys are going through a lot, so get ready to join them on the confusing and emotional roller coaster!

At this age, he's trapped between not being a little kid but not yet being a grown-up. He'll want responsibility, but can become insecure about what he can actually achieve. These mixed feelings can be a lot to cope with - for you and him both! Encourage him to get involved in extracurricular activities to develop his talents and boost his self-esteem.

At this age, his hobbies start to become passions, and the stakes feel higher. Whether it's a football game or a Fortnite mission, losing can feel like the end of the world. Be enthusiastic when he succeeds (even if you're still not sure what Fornite is), and remind him that having fun is more important than winning.

11 year olds can be expert debaters, so expect pushback on hot-button topics like chores and limits on screen time. He'll jump at the chance to argue about the injustice of loading the dishwasher or his inalienable right to the latest Xbox game. Be fair but clear with your terms.

Above all else, remember that boys aged 11 year are still kids! Even if he complains that you're embarrassing him in front of his friends, he'll still ask you to tuck him into bed. And don't be surprised that even if he publicly declares toys to be 'babyish', he still secretly enjoys playing with them! (You are never too cool for Play-Doh.)

Appropriate age toys

Online catalog is easy to navigate with age appropriate articles. STEM projects were great ( marble slide, catapult for older kids provided hours of fun!). Just purchased for 4 yr old brother.

Very happy customer!!

I was looking for a birthday gift for my grand-nephew who was turning 4 when I came across Wicket Uncle online. I thought that they had agreat selection of age appropriate, educational toys to choose from. Then I was able to get the gift wrapped and a card sent as well, which was very convenient since I don't live in the same area as my grand-nephew. It was delivered in a timely manner. Everything was wonderful!! I am a very happy customer!!

My error caught by Wicked Uncle!

I had accidentally spelled a name different in two locations and did not catch it before making the purchase. Within an hour someone fromWicked Uncle contacted me and asked me to call them, which I did immediately. The person had caught my error and wanted to correct it before the gift was sent out. I am so thankful and so impressed! I don’t remember the woman’s name but I want to thank her tremendously!

Safe two-way darts game hit the mark!

Most recently I ordered the 2-sided dart "board" -- one side for velcro'd "darts," the other for magnetic ones. Have now seen thatthe young great-grandson who received them is fully engaged. Last year? we sent another great-grandson the same gift and it was a big hit. I deduce that this game is great for smart 3-4-year olds, and maybe beyond.

A good source of gifts for teens

Wicked Uncle's products are unusual and likely to appeal to their target audience. The gifts I have bought have not been opened bythe recipients yet but I feel confident they will be a hit. Since I live on the opposite coast from the company, the items arrived less speedily than Amazon. However, they were packaged well and even included a clever postcard that the recipient could use to thank the giver for the gift as well as share their opinion of it.
