What would you give? He has a brother 1 year younger than him, they have a huge backyard w/lots of tall pine trees and are outside basically all day from spring - fall. I don't know if they have stomp rockets, but am 99% sure they've never seen Rush Hour Jr. Given the way they like to play, I'm leaning towards stomp rockets, but don't want them to just be frustrating because they get stuck in the trees the first time they use them. They have basically every outside toy known to man, and are rough and tumble boys. :) Thanks!
ETA: Thanks everyone! We ended up going with Rush Hour Jr, and it was a hit. The party was yesterday, and his mom just emailed me this afternoon to say he'd been playing with it all day. I do think he'd have loved stomp rockets too, but he wouldn't have been able to play with them much for a month or two (we are buried in icy snow here), and I think the set would have gotten broken & scattered pretty quickly. They just have a *ton* of outside toys that all get thrown in a big deck box none-too-gently. Thanks again!
