My son turned 3 on the 5th of this month. His favourite toy is his road/ car park/ ramp type thing and cars (similar to the mats you can get that are designed like a road. But it's plastic and has shops, a ramp, car parking spaces, pavements, signs, that sort of thing).

That sounds quite fun! I loved cars when I was younger 😂

I have lots of children in my family so getting an idea of what age group likes what before christmas etc.

Happyland. Even at nearly 9 she still gets it out every so often.

I've never seen happyland... I'll need to look into it.

DS is 2 and his little tykes car is his favourite at the moment. He also has a trolley which he loves and ITNG figurines which he pushes about in said trolley.

My daughter which is now 3 years old, loves her set of cooking toys. She always play with it all day. My wife can have her own time when our daughter plays with her toys.

BeeMyBaby · 26/09/2018 08:51

DS is 2.8 and his favourite toy is his scuttlebug ride on. He also quite likes DUPLO but is always excited when on his scuttlebug.

OfDragonsDeep · 26/09/2018 08:58

My DS is 2.5 and his favourite at the moment are his paw patrol figures which have to come everywhere with us

Omg yy to happyland!! All my kids played with it forever! My youngest is now 4 and plays with it at school allllll the time! I only got rid of it as she was choosing her sisters playmobile instead.....essentially the same games just smaller bits lol

My girls have all also really loved the small dolls, the cheap supermarket ones with soft bodies, they're the right size for "breastfeeding" and baby wearing and not too heavy to carry around and easy to change outfits.

And cars. You just can't go wrong with cars tbh!!

motortroll · 26/09/2018 09:14

Ps I only have girls. I didn't just single out dolls as a girls toy there.....before I get policed!! Lol

bluechameleon · 26/09/2018 09:26

4 year old just had his birthday last week so it's a bit early to tell which of the new toys will be the favourite. The cooker, fridge, till and food have been played with most days for 2 years.
7 month old loves his wooden stacker, Galt jumping wooden people toy and hide and squeak eggs.

NerrSnerr · 26/09/2018 09:28

My just turned 4 year old loves Playmobil, she got the park set for her birthday and loves it. My 17 month old loves his big fire engine he can push around.

valentina01 · 26/09/2018 16:32

Great thread! I'm sorry to hijack but what are people's thoughts on a good first birthday present?

spinabifidamom · 26/09/2018 18:31

My son and daughter love their joint Christmas present which they got last year. It’s a shape sorting toy. We have used it this year a lot. This year they are going to have a toy that promotes pretend play.

deptfordgirl · 26/09/2018 18:52

Ds is 2.5 and plays for hours with his brio train set.

tryingtotakeitonthechin · 26/09/2018 19:40

I NEED to know about this car mat with ramps.
I can only find one for about £130 but it looks amazing.

tattiehat · 26/09/2018 20:31

Around that age my DD loved this walker, the front part removes so she would play with that and then a few months later it really helped her when learning to walk

Tell me your baby/child most loved/played with toy.
Redrosebelle · 26/09/2018 20:35

Happyland has always been a favourite, and hot wheels with the tracks and other bits that go with it!

Equimum · 12/10/2018 19:42

My DSs are 3 and nearly 6. The most played with toys over time have been the Brio trainset, Cosy Coupe car, Micro scooters, Magformers, and Schleich animals/ dinosaurs.

TheSteakBakeOfAwesome · 12/10/2018 20:04

5 and 6

Playmobil - particularly the school and preschool and the other thing that gets heavily played with is their V-Tech kiddi superstar microphone where DD1 will conduct pop concerts for her teddies for bloody hours.

Thurmanmurman · 05/12/2018 15:41

DD 8 and DS 6. I bought a mini table football game from TK Maxx for a friend's son last year then realised he already had one so I gave it to my DCs and they play on it all the time. Fun for adults too!
