What about an Air Hockey table? Anyone have one?

I bought my son an infra-red thermometer so he can measure the temperature of stuff around the house. Also got him a Casio calculator watch. He's 10.

Air hockey tables are the shi%!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Seriously best idea Judy! I played all my friends in air hockey when I was a kid and it was always a blast. Probably because I always won but still!

When I was 10, I'd have been very happy with a Playboy.

We bought one when my boys were younger. They loved it. I periodically used car wax on the table and it kept the puck moving very fast.

Thanks Mathew & Craig for the feedback. I thought this might be better than a robot Dino or Dog. Just takes a lot of room. I have to look a bit deeper to see if there are any table top versions that are good. Carrot 42" table looks good. Not cheap but its the longest I've seen so far. I might just get one that has legs. My brother wont like the loss of space in his basement but then again, if his kids are down there playing then he has the tv up in the family room to himself along with some peace & quiet. LMAO...

My youngest is 9 and she got her own iStuff new some time ago but has been relegated to hand me down PC's so this year she's getting a BNIB chromebook

At less than $200 you could get them each one and not feel like spoiling them

If you don't mind "some assembly required" the basketball hoop and trampoline my teenage boys got years ago are still providing hours of fun for them and the rest of the neighborhood kids . . .

I have 3 kids under 12, and am fighting the iDevice/child pacifier solution for as long as I can/can't be part of the lazy parenting culture.

Here's a few of the past 'hit' gifts:
