This post is all about the best birthday gifts for 9 year old boys.
Shopping for a 9 year old boy can be tricky. They are at an age where they are starting to outgrow toys, but still like to play. If you have kids around this age, I’m sure you understand. This makes shopping for them a little tough.
My son is turning 9 in a few months, and I have to start shopping for his gifts soon. I had my son sit down and put together a list of items he wants for his birthday. I thought it would be helpful to share this list of 9 year old boy-approved gift ideas with my fellow moms.
If you are in a rut and don’t know what to get your 9 year old, use this list as a guide to help you.

The Best Birthday Gifts For 9 Year Old Boys:
1. Glow In The Dark Basketball
My soon to be 9-year-old is obsessed with basketball, and this light-up basketball would make games at night extra fun!
2. Scooter
The weather is starting to get warmer, and this is a good gift idea that will get your kid outdoors. A scooter would make a great gift for a 9 year old boy.
3. Nintendo Switch
This is a splurge gift idea. But, If your 9 year old is obsessed with video games (like my son), this would be an amazing gift.
4. Make Your Own Comic
This make-your-own comic book would be a hit for any 9 year old who loves to make up stories. My son got one of these for his last birthday, and he had so much fun making his own comic book. He put this on his birthday list again.
5. Lego Sets
These are some of the main toys my 9 year old still plays with. These Lego sets are so cool and will keep your child busy. I buy a Lego set for pretty much every special occasion. My son will build them and then display them on his desk. It’s so cute!
6. Monopoly
Monopoly is such a classic game that the whole family will enjoy. I was happy when my son asked for this game for his birthday. I love playing board games with my kids, so everyone will enjoy this gift.
7. Sports Balls
This pack of assorted balls will make a great gift for a 9 year old boy. Balls are inexpensive, and they get my child to spend more time outdoors, so it’s a win-win for me.
8. Brainquest Cards
If you are a millennial mom, you may remember these cards from your childhood. These cards make learning fun. I buy them for both of my kids, and they love them. These are great to read before bed, on a car ride, or whenever they are bored.

9. Pokemon Card (Organizer) Binder
It seems like my son, and every other boy in his 3rd-grade class, are obsessed with Pokemon cards right now. My son asked for a binder to keep his cards organized. I love this gift idea since the binder will keep them from ending up all over the house. This will make a great gift for a 9 year old boy who owns a lot of Pokemon cards.
10. Diary Of A Wimpy Kids Books
My son loves the Diary Of A Wimpy Kid movies, so I bought him the first book from the collection. He finished the book in two days and couldn’t stop talking about it. These books make a great non-toy gift for a 9 year old boy. If you want to encourage your child to read more, get them books they will enjoy (and that aren’t boring).
11. Fact Books
This book makes learning new information fun! My son is obsessed with this book, and always brings it to school to share with his friends!
12. Indoor Basketball Hoop
I had to include this mini basketball hoop that hangs over the door because my son has it and plays with it nonstop!
I hope these gift ideas for 9 year old boys help you find the perfect gifts for your little one’s birthday!
