We have been given guardianship of my nephew who is two. I have three girls, and also have custody of his little sister. I need some good ideas for outdoor toys for him. I am honestly quite clueless. We do live in Miami, so they could be used year round.
My son will turn 2 on Memorial Day, so he is getting outside toys for his birthday. In addition to some of the things that were mentioned above, we are considering a slide, bubble mower, and inflatable pool. He has an adjustable basketball goal that he plays with in the house. It will get moved outside as well.
Re: Recommend boy summer toys!
I don't know of anything that is strictly "boy" toys. My kids seem to love the same things right now.
Swing set/Slide
Sand box (although, since you live in Miami the beach may be enough, in that case sand toys for the beach)
Sprinkler
Water Table
Tricycle
T-Ball set, kids Basketball hoop, kids golf set
Bubbles, chalk, balls....
In addition to what PP said, garden "tools" or a wagon
