I have 2 nephews with birthdays next month, one turning 4 and one turning 5. We only see them a few times a year so I'm sort of stuck on what to get them. I was going to get them stuff for the beach because we all spend a week at the beach together. But our beach trip is not until the end of July and their party is mid May so I'm thinking it might be weird timing wise. Then I was thinking about just doing a 'summer fun' sort of theme, nets, sidewalk chalk, bubbles, a big ball, etc. My questions are, if you have a preschool boy especially, would you rather get something like that or another generic car/truck/train/superhero toy?

DS got a target gift card this year and thought it was the best thing ever. He called it a credit card. He is also into super heroes so costumes and figures are a big hit. You can never go wrong with legos. They are both really
DS got this for his birthday with his inital and made of his favorite colors. It's not your run of the mill superhero thing but maybe check to make sure they don't have one. He LOVES it and we now have to get one for DD b/c she is is his "sidekick" as

Re: Which would you rather get?
I like the summer fun stuff.
Maybe you could send them a card for their birthdays and bring the stuff you bought with you when you go visit.
I think it is even okay to buy the same/similar thing. It seems fair. I do this with my nieces and
