The Ultimate 3 Toys for 6-Year Old Boys (January 2015)

2014-2015's 3 "Best Of" Toys for Boys Age 6 

Over the last few years, I have seen hundreds – maybe thousands – of toys that have both grown and faded in popularity. Which means I have seen what it takes for a toy to be considered popular and all-the-rage for longer, turning from newbie to instant classic in the span of a couple of months.

What really makes or breaks these new toy selections is the holiday season, which equals a new round of exciting, awesome toys for kiddos to enjoy.

With Christmas recently passed and early into 2015, I have hand-picked 3 of what I think are and will be the best toys for 6 year old boys this year. They range in topic and type, but each one features some sort of educational value and tons of intense, awesome entertainment for a rewarding playtime.

The 3 lucky toys this year are –

Zoomer Dino – Boomer

No denying it – Boomer is one badass T-Rex with the usual strong, powerful jaws and legs…and itty-bitty arms. Rexes may very well be the joke of Mother Nature for the Prehistoric age, but his carnivorous, destructive habits are legendary.

However, their likeness, Boomer – this Zoomer Dino – is lightweight, technologically high-grade, and awesome in his endeavors for friends. He has a way of bonding that makes him instantly likeable to your kiddo, and his movements are remote-controlled, as he has wheels where his feet would be.

Kindle Fire HD Kids’ Tablet

When Amazon arrived with their Kindle Fire – I was one of the first in line with eagerness in my eyes and excitement in my heart.

These tablets are simply amazing – and now they have the Kids’ Edition, which means I am practically bursting with delight!

These tablets are slightly different than the adult versions, as they feature kid-friendly Internet access, parental controls, and over 5000 movies, books, and games available for download – each one educational and conducive to both a healthy imagination and love for learning.

Transformers Age of Extinction Stomp and Chomp Grimlock

My faux paus for Transformers is constantly referring to the Age of Extinction as the Age of Dinosaurs. Whoops! But that is exactly what I and hundreds of others remember from the latest and greatest Transformers film.

Grimlock is an action-figure that completely validates my name mistake, as he is a towering Tyrannosaurus Rex known for his stomp, chomp, and roar questions later attitude.

This particular Grimlock is ridden by a mighty Optimus Prime, and he transforms from dinosaur to noble, massive warrior in seconds.

I will be keeping my eye on the ball for future release toys for boys age 6 (and other ages too).  Stay tuned for future listings!  =)

Uncle Milton Moon In My Room - For All Ages

The Uncle Milton Moon In My Room is advertised as one of the best toys for boys 6 years old and up -- but quite frankly, I'm 28 years old and still think this is really cool! It's captivating for people of all ages, especially if you grew up with those little glow-in-the-dark stars plastered across your ceiling. It's remote controlled and goes through the phases and cycles the real moon does. 

Admittedly, I originally bought the Uncle Milton Moon In My Room for my nephew on his 6th birthday, but it's a present he never received. Instead, curiosity got the better of me and the moon now hangs on the wall above my bed. It's become my calming focal point and meditation device in the dark evenings, after a long and stressful day at work.

It flows through the 12 phases with a glowing brightness that lights up my bedroom like the real moon outside the curtains would. The light is artificial but the appeal is real. Or I can push a button to see it sit on my favorite phase for hours -- the batteries aren't drained quickly and are easy to replace from any retail store. The phase it's set most on is crescent because it reminds me of my favorite movie, Alice in Wonderland -- it perfectly resembles the Cheshire Cat's grin!

While my nephew didn't get this birthday present (and doesn't realize it was initially intended for him), he loves to sleep in my room to watch the moon when he stays over. I'm thinking about purchasing a second one just for him -- one I promise to actually give to him this time -- because we've told the most outrageous and creative stories under the false light of the Uncle Milton Moon In My Room.
