Gift help for 11 year old boy?

Question

Help me!!!

I have an 11 year old nephew with Asperger's, and it's his birthday (he just turned 11) he loves video games and science. I really don't want to get video games as he is a bit obsessive over them and he trades them in.

Anyway, what is a good site to get great gift ideas?

Thanks!!

Answer 1

get him a book of simple science projects he can do at home. he keeps his mind intertained while learning about something he likes. =] that would be awsome!

Answer 2

Check out the gift shop of your local science museum or observatory.  There's a fun book series called "Grossology" by Sylvia Branzei that he might really like:

Answer 4

Since he loves science, how about a science book, subscription to a science magazine, tickets to a science museum or something like that?
