The Best Gifts and Toys for 8 Year Old Boys

in BOY MOM, LIFESTYLE on 08/01/19

This post is sponsored by Walmart NextDay Delivery and all opinions are my own. 

Hi friends and happy August! We are on our final summer vacation down on 30-A. It’s been so great to wrap up summer as a family and today happens to be Sweet P’s 8th birthday! The start of August is always bittersweet – to have my first born turn a year older and know that school is looming in just a few short weeks starting a new grade. But for now, we will soak up every minute of our time relaxing together as a family before alarm clocks and uniforms. 

This vacation is very casual which made packing easy. It’s a good thing because it was a little crazy to pack because the boys and I spent two weeks down at my parents beach house right before this trip! We only had four days between that trip and this one- and during that time we hosted family and moved my mother in law into a new place. However, even though this trip was casual, I knew I needed to pack up birthday presents for Sweet P so we could celebrate his birthday at the beach.

Needless to say, I didn’t have a single minute to make it out to shop for birthday presents for Sweet P before we left again for the beach!

Thank goodness for Walmart’s Next Day Delivery program!

With Walmart’s next day delivery, I was able to grab a few minutes on my phone to find items that were Next Day eligible and boom- they were on my front porch the next day! I can’t even describe the relief I felt when I arrived home to this after a long day of moving my mother in law. 

So today I figured I would share some of the fun things we got for him for his birthday- and as I mentioned above- all of these were available for next day delivery! Eight year old boys are pretty great and if you have one in your life you need to buy something for, here are some great gift toy ideas for them.

LEGO CITY TOWN PEOPLE PACK
LEGO CITY GREAT VEHICLES
SWIMMING FINS  
NERF DIGITAL TARGET
FOSSIL SCIENCE KIT   
LEGO CITY GREAT VEHICLES KAYAK

And if you find yourself in a time crunch, there are a couple nice benefits on Walmart’s Next Day Delivery:

  • It is free with no membership required
  • It was an easy process, you just click into NextDay Mode on your phone, and everything you see will be available for NextDay Delivery
  • There are over 100,000 items
  • I also really liked that my entire order arrived in the minimum packaging. In most cases, everything arrives in one package! 

xoxo-

Heather

      Awesome! I hope this helps- I don’t think you can go wrong with Legos or Nerf guns- at least for my little guys! I also got mine that Garmin watch for his 7th birthday last year and he LOVES it! Happy birthday to him!
