My 3 yo (and his 6 yo sibling) love magnatiles and build with a giant bin of duplo that have been passed down. Nugget gets a lot of play. And an exercise ball.

For Christmas, the 3 yo is getting:

A ridiculous PJ Mask robot thing that he is obsessed with
A tool set
Extension set and bridge for his brio train set
Books (1-2)
A sweatshirt with Spider-Man on it (h&m)
Pj mask action guys for his stocking
Tbd gift from his sister, perhaps more magnatiles

We’re getting our 5 and 3 year old: more Picasso tiles, Bluey caravan toy, Bluey scavenger hunt board game, laminated place mats (with some kind of fun/educational images), and probably some books.

Getting them a new book called Luke & the Longest Night for solstice.

Nova Natural Toys has some of the best open-ended toy selections.

Dimple toy for my 1yo, crocodile creek playground ball for both 3yo and 1yo. Stickers. So many stickers.

Nugget couches and magnatiles keep my 4 year old boy entertained for hours.

Spin-off from the thread in the elementary age forum - what toys are your younger kids (toddlers, prek) loving these days and/or what’s on your shopping list for the holidays?
