are there any new toys out that your little toddler just loved? We have his birthday coming up on the 31 of this month. He has too much thomas the tank stuff, but thats what he loves. I thought about a bike, but we have trikes and stuff all over our yard. What did your little boy love?
We bought my son an easel, and to this day, he still uses it. He is now 10...
His has a chalkboard side and on the flip, washable markers.. it's been great. Not only does he use it for drawing, but over the years, we used it to write the alphabet and so many other things. it's been a gift that just keeps on giving.. well worth any money spent.. nothing compares to it..

When my son was 3 he loved puzzles, books, hot wheels, and playing basketball.
A friend of mine got her 3 year old son a doll house. It's a sturdy, all wooden doll house with sturdy wood furniture and wood people. He LOVES it! He put the train set around the house and he combines the people and his cars with the house in imaginative play.
Flashlights! One of those plastic bug houses. squirt guns, sprinkler for summer.
for my daughters 3rd birthday I got an antique trunk (treasure chest) and fille it with arts and cratfs and dress up stuff and all sorts of fun things and balloons so when she opened it they all flew out.
She uses it to house her dress up clothes, with a boy it could be used to store a number of things in.
Ours loved getting an easel and art stuff for his 3rd b-day.
I have a daughter now 17 and she's never "needed" anything and we were always going crazy about what to get for a gift.
When she was about 4, we bought a Casio keyboard from Best Buy and I am not kidding, the teens that visit my house regularly today STILL use that keyboard with all the different sounds, drums, etc. It was probably one of the best $200 or so we ever spent.
Other than that, guitar, drums, V-tech computer ( daughter's is STILL working).
fun sprinkler, pool, VTech Vreader or Leapfrog learning systems, baseball tee and glove, basketball hoop, radio flyer scooter (has 3 wheels), tent and sleeping bag
I agree with the water table, and the bug stuff! Target has great things like t his! My daughter just turned 3 and we bought her, from Target, a HUGE dump truck, it was $20, and she loves it!
