What are your LO's favorite toys? I am looking for ideas for Christmas presents and trying to buy things he will love at 2 years old and up.
Thank you in advance!

I can't go back to yesterday - because I was a different person then. ~ Alice
We got DS a train set last year (the Melissa and Doug Deluxe Wooden Railway Set), and that is easily the best toy we have. We have added trains and some fun bridges/tunnels, etc. at birthdays and other times, so it is something you can add to. As DS gets older, he is more able to set up the tracks in all types of configurations, but when he was little (20 months or so at last Christmas), he would push the trains along the tracks we set up for him. So it was fun last year, but it just keeps getting better.
Other favorites:
fingerpaints
play doh
Richard Scarry's "the best word book ever"
sandbox
My LO is also getting into Matchbox cars. We just got him a rug from Ikea that has roads on it.
Play-doh, finger paints, chunky crayons. . . .
Play Doh
Trains, planes, cars, trucks....anything that looks "real"
Play kitchen
Legos are a huge hit!
We got him a wooden tool bench that I think he'll love.
love is for every her, love is for every him, love is for everyone
Cars (Mathcbox and big ones he can push)
Trains/Thomas the train (all the time...toys/books/movies, etc)
tools/Handy Manny tool box
books
he's only so so on puzzles, but he is getting a bunch for christmas
Here's what we gave DS last Christmas just before he turned 2 and he still plays with:
- Play kitchen
- Train table (Step 2 one - tracks are attached so not constantly having to put it back together)
- Matchbox cars
- playdoh
- puzzle and play instruments
Play dough
Garbage truck
trains
play food
doctors kit
play instruments
both my boys love firetruck anything... books, actual trucks, firemen figurines. they turned over one of their stackable, plastic storage bins from target since it has a dip in it and put their firetrucks under it and made it a firehouse. we had these things for months and they still play with it. they also recently took their toy planes and made a runway out of my yoga mat and used their tball stand for a tower, making it an airport! so i guess i would say toys that will last and then look around the house for things that might help them use them in a new way. just glad my yoga mat finally isn't going to waste collecting dust under my bed!
