I have a 10 year old boy

Maybe ask him what he wants

A lot of boys that age like Minecraft and other videogames on xbox or pc. You might get him a small android tablet or else an old smart phone or laptop to play games. A bike or scooter.

Plus, Minecraft teaches basic circuit design and gate logic.
