Hi all
Looking for some advice.
Friends are visiting in a week or so who have a 2 year old boy and I would like to get him a present (early Christmas present) but have no idea what a 2 year old boy would like.
Any ideas on what is a good toy for this age?
Thanks.

My DS (2 1/2) loves all things automated: cars, trains, planes, helicopters, buses, trucks.... you get the idea! Something like a Matchbox car or similar would probably be a hit.

Cheers!

Hi Kaelene, my ds 21/2 loves anything musical, or anything that moves.

Hope this helps
