Hi everyone I have a 5 yr old daughter who has a Christmas list & I have 100s of ideas of what to get her for Christmas BUT I have my 3 year old son who doesn’t tell me what he wants & I just have no ideas of what to get him! What do your 3 yr Olaf like??

I don't have an Olaf, i have a Felix

But something along the lines of Ikea wooden trainset (still played with by my 7yo and in excellent condition). It can be added to with Brio, Lidl, Wilko, all sorts of other brands.

Really anythung Ikea is fun - dress up, wooden kitchen, fabric food, tool kit, colouring and craft stuff.

DS received a multistorey car garage by Molto at that age, i think. Fabulous thing- had a wind-up lift, petrol station, car wash etc. Played with it for years, it's just been regifted.

Playmobil is nice from this age, nothing with too many pieces like the campervan, but car with boat or mini zoo.

Schleich (sp?) animals/dinosaurs/Smurfs are amazing quality and can, over the years, be added to in Christmas stocking or from museum shops etc.

Orchard Games make good quality and simple boardgames for this age, we have Pugs in Pants still a great hit!

Pigs, not Pugs!

Bike , scooter, lego, art & craft stuff, sports equipment, books, a chalkboard, garden toys, remote toy/gadget, role play toys character costumes

My 3 year old boy will be getting a basic remote control vehicle, Orchard Toys games and Schleich animals/ playset. At the same age, his older brother got Duplo and additions to his wooden trainset - both of which are still rally popular with both boys.

My 3 year old got a space station set, some lego and playmobil, some dressing up stuff and some bits for his dolls house last Christmas. For his birthday he got an easel, a pirate ship, some toy food, dinosaurs and a car track. For his 4th birthday which is coming up he is getting a fire engine, a better pirate ship, more lego, board games and bath toys.
