What classic outdoor toys do your kids love?




pdooma


My son likes his scooter and playing frisbee.

(I'm looking for things to add to his Christmas list that I've been asked for...)



Answer
Wagons have been favorites for three of my children (the baby seems to enjoy riding in them, as well). Even my 12 and 10 year olds still play with the wagons. They grow well with the child, and you can find many different styles for various needs.

How about stilts and/or a pogo stick? Those are things we getting this year.

I seem to recall you have a younger child. Those Little Tikes playsets are well worth the value- they are expensive, but again we have one that held up through our oldest child (now 12) and is still in the same condition for our 5 month old to use when he can. And, we got it used!

Bubbles, sidewalk chalk, scooter and/or skateboard (we have one that converts from scooter to skateboard which is nice), bicycle (of course).

Basketball and hoop

Baseball, bat and catchers mitt

Tent

Hula hoops (even for a boy- they can be used for circus pretend play, as part of an obstacle course, etc. For some reason most people seem to think hula hoops are "girl" toys).

Sandbox and sand (you can buy or build the sandbox)

Butterfly nets, critter cages (mine like to catch fireflies, caterpillars, frogs, etc. and observe them for a while and then release them)

Garden supplies- a rake, hoe, shovel and some seeds and a watering can

Sprinklers (depending on where you live, it may not be a good Christmas gift)

Badminton

Tree house

Things to do with kids in the summer. EVERYTHING you can think of.?
