Birthday present ideas for my 3 year old boy

[LoveKnowsNoBounds]

The ideas sound great! Where did you get your bikes from and what brands are they? I get so confused looking at them! I haven't seen the BMX with a parent handle before, that sounds good.

Nice to see you on here Liviam How are your goegeous kidlets going? I can't believe it has been over three years since they came and you have your little man too!

We are getting DD's bike from a bike shop as I've been doing some research and I haven't heard anything good about the bikes from Target & Big W. We have decided to spend a little bit more and get a better quality bike that will be adjusted to DD's measurements and put together properly. We have also decided to go with one with a parent handle (which is removable) so we can help her until she has the hang of pedaling.

Probably a bit late for this suggestion, but every now and then I set aside some time, where I don't have to be anywhere in a hurry, and i follow DS around the toy section of big w or target, and watch what he likes best.

I generally have less trouble finding something and more trouble thinking about what I'm going to do with all the toys he gets from the rest of the family that i don't want in my house.

Hi Rebecca,
Yes I totally agree on the presents from relatives. Hopefully I get a bulk of clothes as that would be alot more useful. A few relo's ask me what he would like and then he gets what he's into which is great. I will try that, I have once before where we discovered he is getting a scooter from my SIL. The run around at BIG W resulted in a HUGE tantrum and we left lol as he wanted the toys NOWWW!!!

I am soooooo excited I bought his presents yesterday. I bought him a 5 in one easel, chalkboard, felt etc. I know he'll love that, it came to me yesterday as I had been thinking so hard what to buy him. I also got a shopping trolley as he loves to put his 'babies' in his car and drives them around. We also got him a crayola digital camera 3+. Was so surprised to see that as usually they are 5+. He will love that! Those presents are from me, MIL and SIL. So all done

the camera of course! DD LOVES hers!

They sound like fantastic presents.

Good luck on the only getting a pile of clothes.

I'm at a loss how I will get my relatives to stop buying so much rubbish for my kids.

I don't car about the $$ they spend, but one quality thing is better than a pile of junk. and buy them clothes before they start asking for big stuff.

My 5yo niece told her mum se wanted a nintendo ds for her birthday the other day. We can't work out how she knows what one is???
