2 year boy gift ideas

[Deleted]

I can't decide what to get H for his birthday. He loves balls, trucks, trains, and cars. We have a basketball goal, 100 different balls lol, water table, tball set, train table, and some smaller trucks.

What toys have your 2-3 year old boys loved?

Duplo? Alexander prefers regular Lego over duplo now and has since he was a little over 2.5 but the fact that H is Lego obsessed probably helped there.

Do you have a Tonka truck? The big dump truck version was a big hit here.

[nannerl]

T-ball T or a pop up soccer goal? Both were big hits for H at around two (and still are!)

[ktstorm]

Do you have magnatiles? This is about the age that both of my boys started to like building with them and they are a little more forgiving/easier than duplos.

Logan is really into Imaginext toys right now. He's power ranger obsessed so he has those. But they also have D.C. Characters and other super heroes. They also make little things (basically doll houses) for the characters to play in. Logan loves Peyton's doll house, so for Christmas he will get the Hape Spaceship doll house. He's going to love it.

We have a smaller duplo set that he enjoys, but A loves Legos and can't wait until H stops eating things so they can be out all the time, so I'm wondering if H will like Legos pretty quickly too

I've never heard of Imaginext, I'll have to look them up!  The Hape spaceship looks so neat!

I forgot we do have one bigger dump truck, it's the Cat version though I guess.  I have been looking at this brand of trucks from Target but there aren't many reviews on how well they hold up and H is hard on toys www.target.com/p/driven-fire-truck/-/A-51121387

Soccer goal is a good idea, we don't have one!

A has an off brand of them, and H likes them but she isn't very good at sharing them lol.  Maybe I could get some for him so he can actually play with them!

Alex loves dump trucks, paw patrol pups and cars of all kinds.

No mess art stuff was a big hit then (and now). Those melissa and doug water coloring books or some crayola factory sets would work, too.

Playdoh Diggin Rigs and Gears, Gears, Gears. He also liked the giant floor puzzles, Thomas play tent and M&D tunnel.
