It is hard to figure out for a boy but I think stars would be wonderful. Girls are nooo problem.
I am so glad to hear that you want to participate in the 2012 Block of the Month this year. It is a great way to make your quilt blocks & have a nice quilt by the end of the year. This year's Calendar theme will more than likely have many different pattern's, not just Stars for a guy. You might want to check out the 15th of the month, Block of the Month 2011, by JudyG, as the whole theme is Stars. I think it would make a great quilt for a young man. Just a thought for you to check out.
Here is the link for the Star pattern's:

Have fun & I will be watching for your posts & pictures of the blocks that you make this year.
