Birthday Ideas for 6 year old with Older Brother

So we have two kids who just had a good Christmas and DS2's b-day is coming up next month.

I have no ideas other than Legos - and I learned from DS 1, not to overdo the Legos...

He likes playing board games, Minecraft, Legos, Magnatiles, Pokemon etc... He was never really into superheroes. And he's over trucks and such.

We have a ton of sporting equipment, bikes, etc. And we have a lot of memberships...

Any ideas?

Oh - and DH will divorce me if any more Nerf guns/bullets enter the house

Do you have an air hockey table? We have a small one and my boys have been getting way more use out if it than I ever imagined.

They also love the Garmin Vivofit Jr. Tracks steps but also sleep and other activities. They can earn coins, etc.

I got DS a real digital camera.
He loves it. It’s a point and shoot and indestructible.
He takes pics and we will make books.
If your kid is into biking/skiing/boarding, there are go pros that are cheap and can easily attach to things. Lol. I got one for DH.

Tickets to a show or sporting event
Season pass to an amusement park
Movie theatre tickets
Day trip somewhere that they've always wanted to go.....maybe car races? State fair? Skiing?

I think he'd love the air hockey table. As would his brother lol.

He got the Vivofit for Christmas but, it is great for that age.

It never used to be this way but, my 8 year old is easier. Especially since his b-day is around Christmas and when a lot of new XBox games come out!

I think he'd love the camera - great idea! I was debating the Instax at Christmas but, I figured it would end up being insanely expensive or unused as he would take pics of crap and would constantly need film. But, a regular digital would be great.

He has the Vtech version of the GoPro and likes to use it when he's biking.
