Birthday present for a 3yo boy I don't know!

[CorpusCallosum]

We are visiting family & staying a few nights in a couple of weeks. A friend of the cousin we're visiting has moved her 3yo boys birthday party to the weekend we are visiting 😬 As I have a 2.5yo DD my cousin has asked if we want to go along (obv with agreement of birthday family) as DD will have a great time.

I'd like to take a gift, and for it to be a surprise as cousin will just say not to bother if I ask for ideas. Any clue what would be a great, completely generic 3yo birthday present??? Maybe about £15-20.

V-tech switch n go dinosaurs! DS was obsessed last year at the same age. Otherwise, bubble machine and bubbles or anything paw patrol.

I came on to say a bubble machine.

Water painting books, they are more expensive and much better than magic painting. Dino world do a really good one although a paintbrush is needed rather than the water pen thing. Usborne first sticker books.

kinetic sand, play food sets, arts and craft sets/colouring books, playdough, baking sets, dress up clothes, bucket stilts, story books, stickers, garden set, wheelbarrow and tools, general tools/tool bench, wipe clean ABC/123 books...urm...

Look at Wicked Uncle - they sort by age

These have all been great, thank you.

Wicked Uncle won the day - I'm glad I started this thread just to find out about that site! We have a torch that projects pictures of dinosaurs. Probably, possibly, perfect!

@CorpusCallosum our 3 year old son got one of these for Xmas and loved it so it's an excellent choice!

I think you can never go wrong with books! if you know the child's name, you can get personalised ones which make them a bit more special/ interesting for the LO
