What do 5-12 yo like?

[kungfubecca]

Hi All,

we recently had a brand new market just for children and childrens products, second hand goods etc etc.
But there wasn't much for the 5-12 yo to do and not many products tailored to them.

Any ideas as to what that age group likes, as my eldest is onlly 3
Thanks

I work with primary aged kiddies.
The girls love Hama beads (little plastic beads that go onto a tray and then you iron them), sand art, scratch lite craft, making pom poms out of wool, anything crafty. They also love littlest pet shop, szu szu pets, Uno.
The boys are not so much into the craft but are right into Bakugan, Lego (boys & girls are obsessed at the moment), trading cards, mighty beans (boys & girls) and anything sporty.
