Go to the 99cent store.

Answer 6

target gift card

Answer 7

Does he have an Ipod? a 20 dollar Ipod musictunes gift card would be great.

Answer 8

$20 is a bit much for a 9 year old.

I would buy him a book. Something easy enough to read but good enough to get him involved.

Most book stores have their kids section divided by age so it should not take long.

Or look into a series like Redwall, his parents can read it to him and there is pretty much no way a 9 year old boy can not like the story.

Animals at war.

Answer 9

A movie would be in your price range and easy to mail too.

Answer 10

What about a CD?  That would be cheap to ship and if you do it early enough you can send it book rate and save yourself money on shipping.  There are some for about $12-15 that would be great for that age.  I would suggest a RADIO Disney for that age range.  There a hip songs that have a variety of Disney artists on each one.  I would also buy it at a store like Target that give gift receipts so that if he wants to exchange for another one he can.

Answer 11

My 9 year old grandson LOVES Webkinz. They are very popular right now.

Here's how they work, you get them a plush toy with a secret code that can be typed on the computer at http://webkinz.com and create an account. Once on there, they can create a home for their pets and play games. It's like having a real pet!

Most Webkinz are under $20. You can also get them at Halmark or your local giftshop or grocery store and at http://amazon.com

Good luck!

Answer 12

Get him a few bouncy balls (like superballs) I loved those when I was 9. I'm a girl and 13 now, but I'm a hardcore tomboy.

Answer 13

Send him cash 9 year olds love cash.

Answer 14

Don't most 9 year old boys like a sport, like maybe soccer, football, or basketball? You should be able to find an inexpensive ball at most department stores. You might even be able to find an inexpensive ball glove and ball. Try Wal-Mart, K-Mart, Target, or Toys-R-Us. Good luck.
