Ask any kid to name great gifts for boys and you are likely to hear all about the latest game system or newest gadget. But if you are looking for Christmas present ideas for boys that doesn’t involve wifi, plugs, or batteries then I have a cool Christmas gift any boy between 10- 14 years old will love.

Give the Gift of Time {Give a Daisy BB Gun}

This year give the gift of a Daisy BB Gun and give the gift of time together as you encourage the love of the outdoors while laying the foundations of gun safety.

Our ten year old son has been asking to join his daddy on hunting trips since he was old enough to realize he was being left behind. We thought this Christmas would be the perfect time to encourage his interest in outdoor sports by giving him a Red Rider Daisy BB Gun as a gift.

Our local Academy Sports & Outdoors store has a great selection of Daisy merchandise to choose from. I found exactly what I was looking for on a aisle endcap.

Down the aisle I found several other Daisy guns suitable for our 10 year old plus ammo and safety goggles.

Giving the gift of a Daisy is not just giving a BB gun it’s giving time. Time together building relationships that are more than brief conversations about our son’s day at school.

Spending time together learning how to handle a gun safely. Reminding our son to treat every gun as if it were loaded and never point the muzzle at another person.

I love that Daisy educates roughly one million of America’s youth a year through their Ten Lesson Shooting Curriculum about BB gun use and safety (found here).

Giving the gift of a Daisy is about being outdoors and realizing the world is bigger than our neighborhoods and cities.

Daisy educates through its partnership with leading conservation and youth training organizations such as National Wild Turkey’s JAKES Take Aim, 4-H National Shooting Sports, Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation, Royal Rangers, Youth Shooting Sports Alliance, Civilian Marksmanship, NRA, JROTC units, scouting, fish and game as well as church and private camps.

Learn more about Daisy and all their outreach programs by visiting Daisy online and following on Facebook and Twitter.

If you would like to give a Daisy this Christmas, I’ve created a free printable to include under the tree. It’s a letter straight from the North Pole reminding our children of Santa’s Gun Safety Rules.

    I would gift it to my dad. He used to always tell us how he wanted a BB gun when he was young but my grandmother always told him he would shoot his eye out so he never got one. (Yes just like A Christmas Story and yes it was a Red Rider BB gun that he too asked for.) Anyway, I find some humor in it to gift him a BB gun. If you only knew how many times we had to hear that story. LOL
