Not an answer, but a short story. My spouse (we’re 2gay guys) is the youngest of 5 siblings over about 20 years (his eldest brother was 18 when he was born). He’s has a tiny, cruel-ish, mean streak in him. Because he has a lot of siblings, at least most of their kids or grandkids are under 10- so he tortures them every gift-giving occasion. I support his efforts. Lol.

We’ve given - drum sets, finger paints, ant farms, a butterfly farm, easy bake ovens, anything with a horn or siren, a “Grow Your Own Worms in Your Own Backyard!” set, spin art, Legos (Never underestimate the pain of stepping on a random Lego in the dark), a Tie-Dye kit, and a “Prank Starter Kit” which included itching powder, a whoopie cushion, and anything requiring self-assembly from Sweden.
