Help!!! i have no idea what to get him. He has so many toys already heres a list of what he already has;

2 sets of tomica (the blue thomas tracks) he has so much of this that we cant put it all up in our house at one time (enough to go all round lounge and dining room!!!) and he has all the buildings and trains.
take along thomas mega set (but tbh might sell this as he has so much tomica)
loads of cars, like unbeleivable amounts
dinosaurs
fisher price worls of little people- he has most of it, and i think hes growing out of it a bit
easel, paints, glue, pens, crayons, clay
scalextric
slide
see saw
bounce and spin zebra (again might sell he never plays on it)
kitchen, play food, till and shopping trolley
2 ride on toys and a bike
he has a playhouse at my father in law's which is built by fil.
moon sand, play dough
playmobils
vsmile motion and little touch leap pad, wii with games for his age to play
a bookshelf full of books including full set of read at home and topsy and tim
then loads of little toys like the handy manny tool trug, a wheelbarrow and gardening stuff, teddies, hungry hippos.

And thats after we have donated more than half of his toys to charity! I just dont know what to get him now and i dont want to spoil him, he doesnt need clothes and it cant be too big as were going to my mum and dads for christmas. We cant buy him a tv for his room as my mum will flip her lid, so i dont know!!! Any ideas?

What about one of those Vtech kiddy camera's/camcorder??
I want to get Jess one but can't afford £50 for one....

do you think they would use it? i thought about it but i brought my stepson who is 8 a digital camera last year and he just chucked it on the side, and now its upstairs in a toybox with half the stuff that goes with it missing, and hes 9. maybe i should look at the reviews.

I bought Morgan the kids tough digi camera and to be honest it doesn't get used probably best off with some disposable cameras. I'm honestly stuck on what to get my kids for Christmas and birthdays too as we have so much stuff. How abot duplo? We have a big plastic tub just full of 2nd hand duplo that we bought in packs for £3 think we must have at least £30 worth of the stuff which would retail for alot more on ebay, all 3 of my kids enjoy playing with the duplo. Why would your mum go mad if you got him a TV for his bedroom? Mine have a tv and dvd player in their bedroom and they only have it on before bed or if they wake early in the morning.
