How can you make a 10 year olds birthday special with no money?

My son turned 10 today but we just got back from vacation and my husband took 1 1/2 weeks off work and we are broke! How can we make his birthday special? I can bake a cake! But we can't afford a gift.

His birthday has been coming for a year! You didn't even bother to save money for a bday present. I guess make him a peanut butter and jelly sandwich and go throw a ball and give him your attention at least. That's so sad.
