My kids at that age were really into action figures, either based round films/TV programmes (e.g. the appalling Ben10) or just stuff like knights and dragons etc. Not very sporty, I know, but if he's a rugby and cricket but not football fan he clearly doesn't like proper sport anyway Smiley Maybe a Real Ale Guide?

Many happy break times at school with that game. It was possible to develop a consistent roll to rack up some impressive scores.

I really hope you're referring to the gum and not some sort of public school euphemism for favours in the showers

If it was my child, I wouldn't be on here asking for advice! I don't have any littluns (yet) .

Looks like Hungry Hippos could be a winner (I can't get world cup cricket delivered in time, next year - looks ace!)
