    Damn you have a lot of stuff. All we have is a bucket. I would like one of those playhouses
    I got stuff for cheap when I saw it at the thrift store, the water table and mini atv were Christmas/Birthday gifts. 

    I need to go back to the thrift store and see what else I can find.

    right now we have a bubble machine (she goes apeshit over bubbles), a water table and a big green ball (those $2 plastic ones from target). she kicks the big green ball all over the yard. loves it.

    we live on a busier street and have a very steep driveway so we kind of stick to the backyard.
    Our whole backyard/sideyard is slanted, DD has a very hard time walking in the grass and once she starts to fall she can't stop herself because of the momentum. She can't play with balls outside because they end up in the street.  The only place for her is the concrete back porch, at least until she is older and can balance better.  
  • We have her play fort (whatever you want to call that thing in the picture?) That I found for $35 last summer. She has a pool, wagon, cozy coupe, and push car. I got some shovels, watering can, ball and toy truck for her recently. I want a regular playhouse too though, a picnic table and a water table. Our yard is big and pretty level so she can run free and enjoy. We are getting a fence this spring so that will be nice for our dog to enjoy being out back with us.

  • A swing set. And a sand box,water table, kids wheelbarrow, which we found at various garage sales through the years.
    For the front yard/garage the sky's the limit. Bikes trikes scooters skates balls of every kind baseball gloves kids golf clubs and just today a tennis racket. We also have a power wheel that santa got the kids this year. And so many bubbles and chalk.
    We have a little tikes push car but it lives indoors.

    I can't believe the garage sale we will have once the kids outgrow this stuff.

  • Wesley has a baby pool and dump truck for our backyard and then up at my parents, he has a baby pool, slide, water table and sand box, wheelbarrow and garden tools.  My mom may have gone a little over board this year.

  • Even with all the toys, Wesley played with a stick for an hour on saturday at my moms.  He walked around carrying it, set it on the group, picked it up, threw it on the ground, picked it back up. It was very funny

                    
                   







  • We are going to get an outdoor wooden playset--one with swings and a slide. I'd also like to get a water table! We have a cheap-o plastic baby pool that he used 1x last year, we'll see how he likes it this year.

  • We have one of those trikes that you can push like a stroller ( waste of money IMO, but it was a gift). We also have a cozy coupe, lots of balls, sidewalk chalk, a baby pool, and a sand box. Thinking about getting a water table.

    We live in an apartment so no outside toys for us. I do want to get her a wagon though, and she is getting toddler roller skates in her easter basket.

    We have a big green space and a park across the street too, @LuckySquare!  I only have a half a flight of stairs though. ;)

    I just think Alice would prefer a wagon sometimes instead of being cooped up in a stroller when we go for walks downtown.  I'd really like the pushy kind so I can see her.

  • I think water tables are the toy of the season on the o12 shopping list :)

  • Buckets, shovels, gardening set that has a larger rake and shovel, balls, soccer net, baseball bats, basketball hoop, big wheeler for DS1, push ride-in car for DS2, bubbles, baby pool, small step 2 "tree house" play set with a slide, chalk, and I just got DS1 a scooter.

    I want to get a water table and bigger slide but it might wait until next summer since we'll be moving late fall.

    I took the boys to a friend's house Saturday and our outside toy selection was dismal compared to theirs. Their son has every kind of outdoor play toy I can think of. Minus maybe a trampoline. I don't think I saw one of those.

  • I saw a half water half sand pirate themed table at Costco last weekend that I'm thinking of getting for our backyard. It was $40 and had a cover. I may go get it this weekend.
