He calls them "knick-knacks" and in the past has been really interested in Lava Lamps, Newton's Cradle and anything magnetic. It seems the ones that generated the most interest were small and relatively inexpensive. For example, a small laser pointer keychain I bought him at age 11 still provides tons of entertainment.
Yesterday I showed him ThinkGeek and he really liked the Levitron.
I wanted to ask the Slashdot crowd what were some other really neat, interesting gadgets? Is there anything cool in the under $50 range that you would like in your stocking this year?"
