Any great ideas on what to get a 3 and a 5 year old boy for Christmas?

My 4 year old is getting some board/card games, and a bike.

Then stocking fillers (small Lego set is all so far) and things he needs anyway such as a pyjamas/slippers/dressing gown bundle and some longer picture books.

Other things he likes at the moment - character figures, anything alphablocks and numberblocks, painting, playdough sets, yoto and magnetic construction sets.

My 4 year old is getting some Hot Wheels Tracks. He already has a Yoto so some new story cards for that. Connetix tiles are also a hit.

My kids ages 4-8 play every day with magnatiles and qubix. They put little Lego figures or wooden people or animals into the things they make, combine them with building blocks and hot wheels tracks etc. They are honestly the best toy we have ever bought in terms of longevity and play value. You do need a lot to make them interesting though. A light box to use in conjunction with them is also a great hit, they can light up the structures they make, or make patterns on the box with light shining through the tiles.
