One of my favorite things about being a mom is watching my kids growing up and seeing who they become. My oldest son just turned 8 in April and, to be honest, I still can’t believe it. Every day he reminds me more and more of myself, but he’s everything I never was (and was). He’s funny, popular, and he is so smart. His teachers are always telling me how sweet he is and how he just lights up during math and science class. I guess you can say, I’m one proud mom. But, this year for his eighth birthday, I had such a hard time deciding what to get him.
He’s always been blessed with people who love him and he has almost everything Walmart toy shelves sell. It wasn’t until I thought outside of the box and checked on Amazon, until I really found birthday ideas for 8 years who have it all.
Birthday Gift Guide
If you’re struggling to find a birthday idea for an 8 year old boy who has it all, these ideas will help make your birthday shopping so much easier.
Flybar Foam Maverick Pogo Stick
What 8-year old boy isn’t full of energy? With the Flybar Foam Maverick Pogo Stick, kids, weighing up to 80 pounds, will want to go outside and wear out their energy. With fun colors to choose from, your kids will love the Flybar Foam Maverick Pogo Stick from the Original Pogo Stick Company.
Flickin’ Chicken
If your child loves disc golf, they will love Flickin’ Chicken from the Haywire Group. This fun game comes with 4 rubber chickens, a target, pencil, and scorecards and is great for all ages.
Fun Adams Magnetic Dart Board
The Fun Adams Magnetic Dart Board redesigns a classic game and makes it fun for children ages 5 and up. With safer magnetic darts, your 8-year old will love playing the Fun Adams Magnetic Dart Board and you can relax knowing it is safer than the regular game of darts.
Update: It has come to my attention Fun Adams Magnetic Dart Board may no longer be available to purchase. I have researched and this magnetic dart board from Amazon has almost 2k 5-star reviews and would be a great alternative.
PlasmaCar
The PlasmaCar by PlaSmart is one of the only ride-on toys – that I know of – that can hold up to 220-pounds – meaning your growing 8-year old, and some parents, can still ride it! Kids love riding the PlasmaCar and will love all the colors it is available in.
Mag-Genius Magnet Tiles
By the time boys turn 8, their imagination is full-force. My son loves Mag-Genius Magnet Tiles and all the fun things he can create with them. Mag-Genius offers many different magnet tile sets, but the 108 piece tile set with the bonus 13 pieces allows him to build so many different things.
Marble Genius Marble Run Super Set
If your kid loves STEM-inspired toys, they will love the Marble Genius Marble Run Super Set. This set comes with 15 glass marbles and 85-pieces and brings hours of fun. Whenever kids get bored, you can even transform the Marble Run set into a new marble track.

The Razor RipStick is the perfect gift idea for kids who have an interest in skateboards. Great for ages 8 and up, the Razor RipStik give kids the thrill of surfing and snowboarding on dry land.
Singing Machine Mood Karaoke Machine
If your 8 year old yearns to sing, the Singing Machine Mood Karaoke Machine is perfect for them. With built-in bluetooth technology and multi-colored LED changing lights, your 8-year old will have hours of fun with the Singing Machine Mood Karaoke.

Need another STEM-based toy, your 8-year old will love Stomp Rocket Stunt Planes! These stunt planes do flips, loops, and glide. Stomp Rocket Stunt Planes come in a variety pack of 3 and are a 100% kid-powered, so no batteries are needed.
