I need your help, fellow gransnetters! My son's partner, who is Latvian - not that I hold that against her, you understand! - has a young son, Rainers, who is 8. I would like to buy him a Christmas present but haven't a clue what 8 year olds are into, especially one that I don't really know - haven't been given the opportunity to get to know him really, although I have met him - TWICE! So, do I get? He goes to the local primary school, his English is perfect, and I know he likes those hand held electronic games - game boy, I think they are - but don't particularly want to encourage him into yet more antisocial game playing. Your suggestions would be most welcome. Thank you muchly smile
