I agree with making him work for belongings. My father, though he spoiled us when he could, always told me to get a job whenever I asked for something, he always told me that if I didn't learn to work for my possesions then I would most likely find myself without any. So at the age of 11 I got a job at a flower shop as a tux boy. Been working ever since, and I have a lot of great toys and gear to show for it. Cudos to you for being a good parent, and of course helping them out when they show initiative is always great.
