lad around that age then this article is for you. The article features some Christmas Gift
Ideas For 7 Year Old Boys. These are mainly toys and gadgets that would interest boys of this age and may help
you get the perfect gift for the little fella !
Boys Love Star Wars And Sword Fighting
A bit like toy dinosaurs, pretend sword fighting and toy swords are a phase that little kids go through,
especially boys. I'm not sure what it is all about, maybe it is all the jumping around or the glamorous outfits. In
my day and age it was the three musketeers or Zorro. For kids today, it is the Star Wars movies, in particular the
light saber and the Jedi knights.
Kids can really relate to Anakin Skywalker as they have watched him grow up from a determined little kid to one
of the most feared men in the Galaxy (thankfully it's far far away from us). They can get their fix of being Anakin
and pretend sword fighting with a light saber like the Star Wars Fx Lightsaber with
Removable Blade based on Anakin Skywalkers in the various movies.
The sword is as realistic as you will get from the movie original. It has a die cast handle with switch. There
is a blue polycarbonate blade that lights up when turned on. The blade can be removed to look like an unsheathed
light saber. It is easy to put the blade on so that it looks like you have just switched it on.
 Along with the realistic look, the sword also has the sound
effects that you remember from the movie. This includes powering up and down sounds. It also has a motion
sensor feature so that the sound will change when the blade gets close to something. This will make pretend
sword fighting even more like the movie than ever before.
Seven Year old boys also like Robots
With this in mind, how about the WowWee 8405 Roborover. This is a little Robot
companion for the little guy. One he can play with and show off to his buddies. The Roborover has treads a bit like
a tank or all terrain vehicle that help him get around the place. Other than that he looks like a Robot man
with a head (smiley face) and arms. There is a light just above the treads that can be used at night.
You can do various things with the Robot via a remote control – this includes a follow me mode where he will
travel through out the house looking for you. He has a sensor which helps him to avoid various obstacles and appear
to be quite clever.
He can also speak and there are various things he will say that appear to give him a certain intelligence. He's
sure to fascinate young kids, especially boys around the 7 year old mark.
More Remote Controls
 Start'em early ! Boys love remote control toys or
gadgets (and they carry this with them into adulthood - try get the remote for the TV from your hubby and
you'll understand this!).
So how about the Cyclaws Remote Control Vehicle. This toy is another remote
control vehicle but it looks a little different from anything you might have seen before. It's a futuristic looking
all terrain vehicle that has special wheels that can be turned into “claws” (hence the name). The tread part of the
wheels flick up and away from the rims in three sections. This effectively turns each wheel into a type of claw or
grappling hook.
This is ideal when the vehicle hits rough terrain or obstacles like tree branches are in its way. The motor of
the vehicle will propel it forward and the claws will help it climb over the obstacles. The vehicle can flip on
it's back and will still keep on moving. It can even move on it's sides and grapple over small walls. All in all,
it's great fun for boys that love remote control gadgets.
