    A special gift for a special boy

    What about a second hand iPod filled with fun apps? Not sure how cheap you could pick one up though but my DD is 2 and its our saving grace when we need to do grocery shopping or go on a long car trip.

    my dd is almost 3 and cant really do anything with the kiddy computer. the cheaper ones tend to be more complicated too, so i would tend towards something else. maybe check out some apps for your mobile if you want something technological.

    a music box could be cool if you wanted a special, keeping type of gift.

    for doing things, a magna doodle or some hand puppets, balloons, bubbles

    Thanks for the ideas

    I already have a lot of that stuff actually. I think I'll take the magna doodle, and let him use some of the fun apps on my phone. I've got bubbles, and today we bought him a variation of a magna doodle which lights up all pretty and neon when you draw on it.. so pretty cool. He just doesn't have the skills or attention span for something more intense like a DS or ipod though. But that's good because they cost so much.

    I like the sticker books idea too.

    Keep em coming! I'll probably take too many toys but who cares. I just want my little man to be happy.

    DS (2) loves his ipad, it could keep him entertained for hours. If you can find a cheap 2nd hand one it's a winner for sure.

    How much are they?

    Cherished - I really don't have a lot of money to spend. If anyone's getting an IPAD it's me . I have a galaxy tab, he can play with that I suppose.
