 | Lego Duplo Tub
He likes to build, but the real play so far is to act out little stories with the creatures we make (animals, people, whatever). Adding some people to this basic set would be great too.
|
 | 34 Piece Blocks with Wagon
Just some basic wooden blocks, but they're great for towers and lots of building. Fun to knock down too.
|
 | Tonka Lights & Sound Fire Engine
Buy new: $28.99 The doors really open, so his two little soft firefighters (bought elsewhere) drive around and rescue people all day.
|
 | BORDER COLLIE DOG by Schleich
Buy new: $8.99 These Schleich animals are fantastic. He has a bunch of African animals (not sold here for some reason) that he loves.
|
 | Richard Scarry's Best Word Book Ever (Giant Little Golden Book) by Richard Scarry
Buy new: $10.87 / Used from: $3.63 Any Richard Scarry book will do, actually. These books are full of pictures of people (well, animals) doing all kinds of things. Now that he knows a lot of words, he likes to read it to himself.
|
 | Wooden Fire Truck 9-piece Peg Puzzle
Buy new: $9.99 This is a grown up puzzle, and a challenge. But it is still made of wood, and the picture is under where the pieces go, so he can work it out with some effort. This kind of puzzle is perfect for him.
|
 | Lil' Movers Race Track
My son is into cars, but really what he plays with most are the people. They're his "guys" and they act out all kinds of things, including getting rescued by the firefighters.
|
 | Crayola Color Wonder Variety Pack
Fantastic stuff; the paints and markers only work on the special paper, so we can leave these out a lot without worry. Warning though: when he gets his hands on a real marker, he will mark anywhere.
