    I don't think height will be an issue, since he comes in just under four feet. ;)

    Keep the young boy active! I love watching kids zipping around on those things, they really seem to enjoy them. I'd be prone to falling, though, hah.

    everybody wants an ipod... but the technology won't last that long. heelys may be a trend, but they can still be pulled out again in 20 years time and be of some fun. Plus they are active.

    When I was 8, I lost anything given to me that was as small as a Shuffle. I'm just sayin'.
