Toys
***This Christmas we will probably concentrate on Legos (the normal ones, not the Duplos)***
Looking for a Veggie
Tales playset where they aren't wearing costumes.
Fisher Price Little People Noah's Ark
Charlie Brown playset
Construction type toys
Legos - especially 'open ended'
pieces
Gears! Gears! Gears! Super Set
Bristle Blocks 114 piece set
Pretty much anything from this store
Puzzles
60
pieces in no challenge, so at
least 100-250 pieces.
If you know a good source of 100+ piece kid-themed puzzles
where
the pieces
themselves are bigger (around an inch at least), please let me know.
That is our biggest problem right now. The puzzles
that are
appropriate mentally are physically difficult to get together.
At
this point, he usually dumps 3 60-piece puzzles together to put them
together because the pieces are easier for him to handle than the tiny
100 piece puzzles.
Geometric Block Puzzle - smaller
puzzle, but looks like it could be played with a lot of ways
Thomas Carnival, Midnight Ride, Moonlight Mission,
I think these puzzles would work, but haven't seen them in person:
Mayday at Singing Creek, Sun and Surf, Faces and Places of the USA, Museum Maze, Peek and Seek Playground, Roller Coaster, 3D National Geographic Relief Map, Central Station Train, Walk with Jesus, Bon Voyage Cruise Ship Shape, Under the Sea, Rain Forest, Steam Locomotive 3D
Teaching Toys
Base 10 blocks in wood or plastic
3-D shapes
Unifix & Math Linking Cubes
Thomas the Tank Engine
Thomas Holiday Train
Doesn't appear to fit our set, but would be used as a
Christmas decoration.

Would love to get him something from Shelly at Tye Dye Dreams
She has helped me out when I really needed it and I want to be able to
return the favor. Plus, I just really like her stuff.
