Alex brand has a lot of good art kits for a 3 year old. A pop up tent. Little Tykes Big Waffle blocks (only if you have enough room). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gifts-for-3-year-old#post-2920671 Tue, 10 Nov 2020 16:42:04 +0000 castilrm 2920671@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thanks all! I like a lot of these ideas. I hadn’t heard of Schleich animals before so I’ll definitely take a look at those! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gifts-for-3-year-old#post-2920670 Tue, 10 Nov 2020 16:29:01 +0000 poppygirl15 2920670@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I second erinbaderin's ideas. My 4 yo loves Schleich animals and takes them in the bath - everywhere. Dress up clothes are also huge in our house. Play doh kits are fun. You might be able to find a Frozen one that would include snowflakes. If big sister is getting a new bike, maybe she could get a new, wheeled toy? Like a scooter or balance bike? I think we got my DD a vet kit when she was three or four, which is still used. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gifts-for-3-year-old#post-2920657 Tue, 10 Nov 2020 12:56:28 +0000 josina 2920657@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>3 Year olds are hard! My dd is the same age but she likes all the girly things, she is getting twin babies from Santa for sure, and then ??</p> <p>Ideas I have for her:<br /> A bubble lawn mower or bubble blower<br /> Melissa &amp; Doug Cut, Sculpt, and Roll Dough kit<br /> Melissa &amp; Doug Slice and Bake Cookie Set<br /> My First Crayola Touch Lights, Musical Doodle Board<br /> A Remote Control Car<br /> Poke-A-Dot Books<br /> Bath toys - Boon building bath pipes, Schylling Mermaid Bath Stories Bath Toy</p> <p>And then all the girl things she loves - Kindy Kids doll, nursery play set, doll clothes and bottles, play makeup/hair dryer/straightener kit</p> <p>This list goes to all family that buys for her and gives lots of options. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gifts-for-3-year-old#post-2920656 Tue, 10 Nov 2020 12:55:28 +0000 erinbaderin 2920656@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This might be a little pricey, but what about an Osmo Little Genius set? That was a big hit with my 3 year old. Dress-up things? When my son was 3 he was also (and still is) SUPER into Schleich animal figurines - they get turned into armies, they go in the bath, they go in the sandbox, etc. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gifts-for-3-year-old#post-2920650 Tue, 10 Nov 2020 12:19:12 +0000 castilrm 2920650@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hi all! I could use some inspiration for a Xmas gift for my 3 year old (girl, but tend to prefer unisex toys) who is a typical second child. She gets all of her sister’s hand me down clothes and toys, which she obviously doesn’t mind but I feel bad that I put a lot of thought into the right toys to get her 5 year old sister, and I usually just get her something last minute so she has something to unwrap because we already have so many of the usually suggested toys (legos, magnatiles, play kitchen, dollhouse, scooters etc) for her older sis that she’s inheriting. Also, since we’ve been home so much since March, I’ve purchased them a lot more toys than usual “off cycle” to just keep them busy while we work, so I’m really tapped out on what the heck to get her. Her older sis has outgrown her bike, so we’re getting her a new bike for Xmas, some ridiculous Snow Dragon thing she asked for, and grandparents will probably chip in for a the bike or get her some art or STEM projects I suggested. </p> <p>I asked my 3 year old what she wanted and she said “snowflakes,” so I’ll see if I can find something that fits that description! But any other ideas? Has anyone ever tried one of those Leap Frog pads? Are those fun/educational for 3 year olds? FYI, nothing to expensive as we’ve already spent more than usual this year on toys and items to keep them busy, so I don’t want to go overboard or blow our budget. </p> <p>Thanks! Clearly I’m procrastinate work today :) </p>
