Nine-year-olds are in that brilliant in-between stage: still young enough to enjoy a helping hand, but close enough to double digits to start acting like they’ve already got life figured out. Our collection is packed with options that let them play board games that test their strategy, and stay properly engaged, whether they’re teaming up with family, challenging other players, or hosting friends after school.
Pick something that matches their energy, from brain teaser puzzles to lively outdoor games with a bit of action, and you’ll have an enjoyable way to fill weekend time that doesn’t end the moment the screen goes on.
Two Player Indoor Basketball Game: A fast, sporty set-up for quick shoot-outs and “best-of-three” rematches when you want big energy in a short burst.
Pickleball Complete Set: Easy to pick up, great for garden rallies, and brilliant for family matches that scale from casual hits to “proper” scoring.
Medium Trampoline Tennis: Bouncy, giggly rallies that build confidence fast; ideal when they want movement, laughs, and non-stop do-overs.
The Amazing Multiplication Kit: A hands-on way to practise times tables that feels more like play than the assigned homework they sped through.
IQ Gears: A brainy, logic-style challenge that rewards patience and smart problem-solving.
Jigraphy United Kingdom & Ireland: A map puzzle that turns geography into a satisfying build, with plenty to spot as it comes together.
Set of All Three Gecko Marble Runs: Build, tweak, test, repeat: a creative construction pick that’s perfect for curious tinkerers.
Pretty Flower Bracelet: A lovely make-and-wear craft for quiet focus and colourful results.
The Amazing Waxidoodles Dinosaurs: A tactile, creative kit for shaping and making dinosaur designs that keeps hands busy and imagination switched on.
3 Minute Origami: Quick folds, satisfying finishes, and an easy way to dip into paper craft without a long set-up.
Discover brilliant picks for every interest and skill level - puzzles, creative kits, and classic active games that will even have the grownups running about. Enjoy a fun game of Trampoline Tennis, mix in a little creative engineering, then settle in for an hour (or so) of IQ Gears, and you’ve covered all the bases for a nine-year-old who’s absolutely keeping score.
Go for quick, exciting games that all ages can jump into, like Pass The Pandas, then switch to movement-based fun with Medium Trampoline Tennis for a great balance of laughs and energy. These keep everyone involved without needing loads of rules or waiting around.
If they love to test your patience but don’t seem to have any, try Story Time Chess for thoughtful turns, The Amazing Clock Kit for steady, step-by-step building, or IQ Minis for bite-sized challenges they can stick with. They’re great for slowing down, focusing, and finishing what they start.
Yes, we have a great mix of quick solo logic puzzles and family game night fun for balance.
For play that supports imagination (and sneaks in literacy), try StoryCubes Original Set to spark characters and adventures, then follow it up with Write Your Own Story Book to turn those ideas into real books they’re proud to share. It’s a lovely, low-pressure way to get them writing and potentially reading more often!
