Outdoor toys

Thinking spring!!! Can't wait to get rid of the cold. Since lo2 is coming in April I plan to spend a lot of time outside this summer with lo1 and 2 since it will be hard to leave the house with both of them for a while. I'm ready to stock my yard with some good outdoor toys so what do you reccomend? We have a cozy coupe car,pool , a wagon, picnic table, and little play grill. Thinking about adding some sort of climber, water table, bubble machine , ride on toy etc.

Re: Outdoor toys

  • I sorta want that bubble lawn mower toy. Looks neat.
    I also like the big turtle sandbox that I had as a kid. Not sure if it's still awesome or if it's just my nostalgia.

  • A bird feeder might be nice so that y'all can watch birds.

  • The bubble lawn mower is awesome for them.  My guys don't even want the bubbles in it, they just want to push it like their dad does. 
    We have a big play house for them and they spend a lot of time it, but I sometimes don't like it because I have this fear of spiders being it, so I'm always like "wait!  mommy has to check!!" After I check it all is well.  We keep the grass trimmed around it and everything, but this is just my irrational fear.  I don't like spiders.
    Had a climber when the boys were smaller and it was a big hit, but we gave it to a friend and just got the kids a swing set when we bought the house here.  The slide is shallow enough for Dex to be able to climb up this summer and it has a baby swing on it. 
    We also have the Sit and Spin, and a crew of huge Tonka trucks.

  • We have a crazy coupe truck, a pool, a sandbox made from an old tractor tire. A step and slide which is in our basement will probably go outside as well.
    I want to get him a wagon. We don't play much outside at our house- no fence, busy street etc. My parents live 2 minutes from us with a nice big fenced in yard, so we go there most days and play outside.


     
  • If you have room, I'd say a swing set. Otherwise, we love our water table. Sand is fun too, as long as you have a cover for it.
