Ideas for 12 year old!

This boy either has it all or doesn't want it.
He plays mostly downloaded games like Fortnite, Minecraft, etc.
He has an Iphone, lots of Jerseys, books.
Not into legos (his younger brother is), sneakers, socks,
We got him this awesome nightlight show thing for his room at night with the stars and hardly uses it.
He plays basketball and soccer and has everything he needs for that too.
He really never asks for anything. Family and I'm sure his best friends will give him GC's to Amazon or Dicks Sporting goods.

Just want something for him to open or get excited over. He just is always that mellow kid that you can give him a book or a new Ipad or something and he'd be like... oh, cool.

He did get a TV for the holidays which was a gift combined with the money he got from family and grandparents.

Like the idea of an experience--a sporting event or show.

Also, a hoverboard?

We are going to Hershey next month already bc I bought tix last year for a fundraiser that expires end of next month and GA is about 15 mins from us so we used to get season passes every year, but they needed a break from it.

Oh, and they have ziplining at their camp. LOL

Yup... these kids are spoiled. LOL

Oh, nice. I'll have to look into that. More for my younger son who will be 10. He's into that.

We decided DH is going to make him a personalized NY Jets corn hole set. I got Jets bean bags he can unwrap and will have it outside waiting for him,

We must have the same kid, lol.

Does he have the latest xbox (series x)?

We got my kids these adult sized electric scooters and they are awesome. They are one of the only "toys" my tween boys consistently use. DH and I have taken them around the block (shhh) and they are so much fun! https://www.target.com/p/razor-e300-hd-electric-scooter/-/A-79805073#lnk=sametab
