| We have a realitively small house (no basement or "playroom") and tend to ascribe to simplicity parenting, hence we don't have tons of toys for our DS. He got a train table for Christmas, which he loves. His birthday is coming up and I would love some ideas about what we could get him that he would really play with and appreciate. Thanks so much! |

| Legos, if he likes to build. He'll be using them for the next 10 yrs. |

We also have no playroom and try to stay minimilist.
Open ended is best. Blocks that will grow with him. Toy cars Bilibo Toy kitchen (Ikea has a small inexpensive one) Tunnel (they collapse and can be stored) He's a little young, but marble runs are a lot of fun as well. You can also get outdoor toys (balls, trike or balance bike, etc), books, puzzles, and bath toys. Though we tend to do a lot of library books, and just buy a few favorites. |

| 09:31 again - Legos are great (start with the generic blue bucket we supplemented with Ebay and a few sets) but 2 is a little young. |

small kitchen - my kids played with this for 2+ years long time (boys and girl)
my son was 2.5 when he started playing with Imaginext - we have the Castle and this is another toy that was played with for a while the collapsable tent / tunnel - they put all of their blankets in there and toys and have a lot of fun |

| Duplos. My older one was playing with them at that age, and although his preference now (at 7) is strongly for Legos, he happily plays with his 3 yo sister's duplos still. |

My son got wedgits for Christmas when he was 2 1/2 - he is now 6 1/2.
This toy is used frequently by any child who comes into the house - including my 10 YO nephew. Also magnatiles - expensive but played with frequently. |

toy food/cooking things..could be just pots and utensils with space issues
trains blocks collapsible tunnel or fort 2 is too young for real legos and duplos were not too exciting to my kids. |

This, and agree with the age. Other than those, my son loves Imaginext toys, like. The Batcave. Again, though, not really until three. Befor that he played with Little People a lot. |

| I second bristle blocks. My 2 year, 10 month old has played with his magnatiles every day, multiple times a day since Christmas. |

| Bristle blocks!! Yes. And the tent/ tunnel thing. Also wooden blocks have been a huge hit for years at my house, kids ages 6,4 and 2. They play with their blocks almost every day. Our play kitchen gets a ton of use also but it is sort of large. |
