Oldest 2 are boys 12 and 11. The next 6 are girls. I don't mind getting a toy that appeals more to the oldest ones because the list Pesach toy was more for the younger ones.

Price range $50 to $150.

TIA

Magna Tiles
Mitzvah Kinder

Both of those all my kids will play with for quite a bit- even those older than 10.

If you want to cater to the big kids you're probably best off with good board/ card games. Ticket to Ride is a classic, but you can also do an assortment of smaller games.

My 10 and 12 year olds don't really play with toys. They love games! Cover your Assets is very popular in our house right now. It is suitable for ages 6 and up and keeps them occupied for hours.

I bought hundreds of dollars of board games this past chanukah.

I already bought magna tiles.

Boys are too old for playmobil.

Tiny legos would be perfect for the boys but there are babies around.

TY anyway

I bought most of the mitzvah kinder including the puppet show. (I may have bought them all.) Besides I want something more for the boys.

I am embarrassed to say that I can't remember what board games I got them. I went to a Jewish store and pretty much bought out all that appealed to me for chanukah.

I bought them a talking bear, a tape player and tapes, a bunch of different building toys like clicks and magna tiles, a sukkot, a water slide, dolls, a Jewish doll house, a toy sukkot, two puppet shows, crafts, a pretzel stand, an outdoorkid size table and chairs, a small pool.

I am out of ideas.

The boys are extremely bright.

This would be hard for me because they only read Yiddish books. I don't know what they have.

They don't have a place except on the floor. This won't work Pesach. It's a great idea for another time.

Because I don't know what they have. Their mom is busy right now dealing with a medical issue; otherwise, I could ask her.
