Christmas Wish List Time

Some people have started asking what the kids would like for Christmas.

The boys are VERY in to the Magic School bus right now. The thing is, they have pretty much ALL of the books and several of the DVDs. If there were age appropriate games I'm sure they would love them.

The boys are also into Franklin. We have most of the books (we have around 20 of them!) they have a couple of DVDs though I am sure there are many more. Again, they would likely enjoy a Franklin game.

You know, age appropriate games in general would be great. We have been spending a great deal of time sitting down together as a family and playing games together, it's been great. A wider variety of games though would certainly be fantastic! We currently have chutes and ladders, a Cars memory game, Craium Cariboo, and Cranium Hullabaloo.

Big C is really in to vehicles. He already owns just about every construction vehicle known to exist though! He would love a little road to drive his cars on. Scholars Choice sells some really neat ones that are designed to be pieced together and are $10 each or currently 3 for $20, though I'm sure there are lots of neat ones out there. The more intricate the roads, the better!!

Bic C is quite taken with emergency vehicles. He loves ambulances a LOT. Something that would be small enough to fit in his hands and very sturdy construction would be a hit. He is still pretty rough on stuff and tends to throw things when he is upset (which when you are 2 is often, sigh).

Monkey is getting really creative, though he needs to work on his fine motor skills. He would love puzzles and toys that would involve building. I think that he is almost old enough for Lego. He is currently using lots of Duplo.

Scholars Choice has a really neat gear toy that I think he would love. (pictured below)
Monkey is still really in to Lightning McQueen. He has most of the cars from the series but would probably love a sheet set, or other room accessories. He currently has the wall stick ons.

These are just a few ideas. Anything durable would be great!!
