My son and 5 now 6 year old are more anything electronic..Lego imaginex goes down well.
board games seem to work well for boys and girls.

my son is 6 and has loved anything imaginex for the past 2 years
especially the space and dinosaur stuff
building sites, diggers , gravel , wood chip, dumper trucks , cranes
construction toys , lego , gears , octagons , meccano,
actually he loves dressing up as batman or any super hero , tents , tunnels and dancing , especially musical statues and bumps
and all the messy stuff , gloop , glue , paint , fake snow ,
baking and decorating cookies or cakes like aliens or monsters , anything green , slime , snot etc
but he happily plays with the play kitchen , and pushes the doll around in the buggy
i like to think he will be a modern man :D
