3rd birthday

[princesscupcakemummyb]

its my daughter 3rd birthday in november and i still dont know what to buy her now usually i go mad and she has most things money is not a factor within reason but i really am stuck shes asked me for a tablet so i am going to get her a cheap one but other then this i have no clue what did you get your child for their 3rd? any ideas will be great thanks

DD is three just before christmas and she is getting a wooden dolls house (which I am slowly painting in advance) and stack of Playmobil people and furniture to fill it (thanl god for ebay).

Ive also got her a few little games - a memory card matching game, a dominos set, and a selection of art supplies to top up her crafts box.

She will get a new outfit and a new pair of pjs, and also some new story books.

i like the sound of a artbox i didnt think about that i was thinking playmobil but my dd keeps biting everything and anything in her move ruining toys through this so makes it even harder :/

All of dds arty stuff just comes from.Wilkos - dead cheap and washable and can get loads of little bits to make and do.

Also, what about a wooden railway? The click together types? all shops that sell it seem to be able to mix and match so you could look around fof bargains - again Wilkos sell it, IKEA etc.

3 was the playdoh phase in our house. We've a couple of the sets, ice cream factory and cake factory I think. If you can stand the mess and the colours getting mixed together, yes I know 'issues' then these do provide hours of entertainment.

We added a second hand massive job lot of wooden railway stuff to his existing set for third birthday recently.

Outdoor things? Mostly in sales now :) or a season ticket for local attractions? If you buy before she turns three they're usually valid the whole year, as lots of places start charging exorbitant prices from three years.

il have a look at a wooden railway that sounds good thank you :)

NumTum i think il avoid the playdoh i have heard nothing but parents moan about their carpets with it lol

hi Misty9 that is a great idea i didnt think about attractions i really am liking the railway idea :)

I got my 3 year old a balance bike and thatnhas gone down very well.

A bike or scooter, both very much used by my 3 year old.

Mini micro scooter is a big hit here, also an aquaplay set (like a canal set with boats and locks and cranes) and dressing up stuff, especially a doctor's set.
