I have always had a love for creating homemade gifts for my boys. Now that I have four boys, I can say that I don’t do it nearly as much as I would live to, but if you are looking for some fun and creative homemade gifts boys will love, I’ve got you covered!
Homemade Gifts Boys Will Love
A lot of people might shy away from homemade gifts because they might be worried that they don’t have the skills or the time to make something from home. I love that this list of homemade gifts boys will love, has a little bit of everything, from the novice to the expert, so you should be able to find something that your kids will love to get from you.
Homemade gifts for boys
1. DIY Lego Table |This DIY LEGO table is loved above pretty much every other gift my son has received. It is played with daily and I love that it can store away easily!
2. Tetris Magnets | How cute are these Tetris Magnets? I’m sure my boys would love to play with these on the fridge.

10 Superhero Toys Your Kids Will Love
Hi Kara! Thanks for the list. For the sake of all my pretty scarves, I’m definitely making a Superhero Cap next week 🙂
I’d add a busyboard, surely! It’s comparably easy and makes a BIG present. My son goes bananas about them. Ever since he was 1yo. Now he is five and still a fan, though the games are much more intricate. Now he would make a system pulley ropes around the elements and inhabit the board with his lego men. Btw, if you have siblings, you can make a tandem model so no one gets hurt 😀
