It's always difficult to find a gift for a 9 year old boy, who on top is your grandson. When my son was 9 the toys he selected were completely different with what is on the market now and as a reasonable grandma I didn't want to buy him a modern object without falling into the computer game section.
I knew that he loved to put things together and suddenly I had a perfect idea which combined an outside and inside object, a metal detector !
The detector was delivered in pieces which had to be put together and when it was finished, he had a metal detector. Of course he had to try it out immediately and inspected our whole house. In the bedrooms no suspect noise was heard, but under our living room the detector started to make a loud noise !
I told Toby the whole living room must have at least gold under the floor and that we would find a treasure ! Unfortunately the treasure turned out to be the iron bars on which the living room was built.
No chance I told Toby when I come to visit you we will go along the sea and on the beach we will certainly detect coins and other metallic things and who knows maybe the treasure which he hasn't found under our living room.

That's a good idea for a gift. I initially thought he was vacuuming Grandma's floor with a stick vacuum cleaner.
ReplyDeleteI always thought the perfect gift for a 9 year old boy was a 9 year old girl, but then girls are still icky when you're 9.
ReplyDeleteA different idea for a gift!
ReplyDeleteThat is a fun gift! Perhaps years from now he will find a massive Roman treasure and it's all thanks to your gift starting him off...
