Go to West 49 at a mall. They’re slowly monopolizing skateboards and scooters etc and are very reasonably priced. Certainly there are specialty skateboard shops still but they’re more for the higher end I would imagine versus anything a 7 yo would require. West 49 has decent stuff above the Toys R Us or Cdn Tire type offerings. I got my 10yo daughter a trick scooter from there a few weeks ago from Mr Clause.
From myself, I got everyone in the family passes for that ‘ifly’ indoor skydiving place as a Christmas gift. Seems like it will be a fun activity for all.
