Really am panicking as have nothing for her! I cant think of anything either.

What is every one getting their 2 year olds? It doesn't matter if it's a "boy" or "girl" toy as dc seems to have interest in both

TIA!

I've bought my little boy (2 on 28th Dec) a pink pushchair from M&S! I might also get some Brio toys from Tesco Direct using my clubcard vouchers.

DC will be 2 in late January, so far she is getting a box of Duplo and probably a cheap pop up tent so I can hide her when she's getting annoying

The rest of the family will be buying her enough books and little toys etc I don't see the point in wasting the money. We're just going to save it till the summer when she'll probably be able to manage a scooter etc.

But it's taken us ages to think of just the two things above!

Most of these things are 3+ but he has a 3 year old brother and plays with all his toys.

My little boy will be two in December and presents we've bought for birthday and Christmas are...

Scooter
Construction site
Thomas the Tank Engine pull back train
Puzzles
Books
Play food
Chocolate coins
Threading toys

I'd like to get him everything, but I'm not rich enough Wink
I'd say Happyland toys seem to go down well with other toddlers, toy kitchen, artists Easel, balance bike and play dough.

A dolls house. She's very much into pretend playing with figures at the moment. She also has 3yr old brother who will enjoy it too.

DS will be 2.3.

From us and family he is getting :

Playmobile 123 farm
Thomas the tank engine duvet set to try and persuade him to stop co-sleeping
Toy till
Wind up torch
Pot and pans for his toy kitchen
Some kind of wooden nuts and bolts set
Yet another plastic toy bus yes DM, thanks, he already has 2
Toy garage
Spot goes to school (might save that for later in the year)

That's not the whole list, as DM has bought him 10 presents and MIL a fair few but I don't know what they all are.

His current fave toys are brio train set, duplo, mega blocks, toy kitchen, play doh, stickers, his buses and his toy broom, and of course his scooter and push trike.
