Skateboard and roller skate recommendations please

[Pickle]

It would seem these are high on the list of Christmas wants this year, but as I last wore roller skates around 1989 I'm a bit out of the loop.

Specifically:

Skateboard for nearly 7 year old. From what I can gather, the main requirement is that it has a lightening bolt on it! He's not particularly coordinated, do I go skinny or wide?

Roller skates for 5.5 year old. I think my preference is adjustable ones due to the speed her feet grow. Any tried and trusted brands?

Many thanks!

hi i'm a pro skateboarder and i can give you advice. What you need for your 7 year old is a 7.75 deck Almost board, thunder trucks, spitfire F1 wheels and Reds bearings. You can also look at skatehut.com and you can browse the site. Hope this is useful.
