I have no idea what to get either of my boys!
Five year old has a scooter already. Has mentioned a skateboard but I think he's too young yet! He's played on a Minecraft demo and likes that but don't really want him on a n Xbox all the time..
No idea for my three year old as he has a lot of things from older brother.
Ideas welcome!

Imaginext stuff? For either age range. Ds loves his magnetic dart board (Amazon) as well as his new love- draughts played on his sisters chess board.

Ooh watching with interest.
Ds will be 3.5 at Christmas. Want to look into imaginext.
Was thinking something playmobil. LeapFrog LeapStart thingy. Want to get him a baby and buggy/bath as he'll have a little sister come Jan so thought would make him feel included.
But I don't know if they're good ideas and what else.

My son is 5 he's been asking for some imaginext bat robot thing and dressing up stuff.

Also a pie face showdown game? Hmm

My 4.5 yr old (5 in Jan) DS has asked for Duplo/Lego, Star Wars things, a 2 wheeled scooter, Schleich Knights and dragons and a play kitchen.

My 3.5yr yr old (at Christmas) has asked for any and all things dinosaur related, Blaze & The Monster Machine die cast cars, the Hot Wheels transporter, animal figures, and I might go for a balance bike.

They have Playmobil, which they enjoy, the younger one likes puzzles, and they both like books, particularly the Albie series by Caryl Hart.

At that age they just love lots of little gifts so no need for a big wow.

Eg hot wheels cars, playmobil vehicles with flashing lights, starter Lego sets, stickers, bouncy balls, books, a torch, remote control car....

Lego, imaginext, playmobil, play doh. Bike for 5yo? Balance bike for 3yo? Simple games? DS loves the elc versions of hungry hippos and kerplunk (they're cheaper than the proper ones and I think they're on 3for2 at the minute)

Thanks, some great ideas!
Was things hungry hippos! I'll have a look on elc, cheers x

We got our DC a football goal for the garden at that age (last year). New football each wrapped under tree to go with it. Still gets lots of play now. Think the one we got was about £25 from Argos.

DS3 is getting bruder and siku tractors, a trunki, a toy jackhammer, buckaroo, playmobil and lots of books

Busters bones, Disney's I scene it, lego junior, hot wheels, paw patrol and a play shop were things that my DS liked between 3-5.
