Little Tikes Outdoor Toys
I am looking to buy an outdoor play thingy for Noah, I have limited space, and limited funds. We spend alot of time at our local park, so it doesn't need to be a huge item for our back yard, just something small to keep him & some of his friends busy.
Does anyone own this? is my 3 year old going to be bored of this after one season? Anyone have any reviews? Of course I would love to buy a HUGE expensive wooden set, but I don't have the space for one.
Any input would be appreciated! TIA!!!
This is the kind of thing I have in mind...
This is the one I really want to get...

We have the first one, and my son is 2. I feel like already its a little small for him....the slide is small and his feet hit the lip in the bottom...its weird....I'm not sure if it would be good for older children.

Re: Little Tikes Outdoor Toys
When I was shopping I found Little Tykes items to be really small - which is good for your yard, but I think too small for Noah already. I like the Step 2 sets better - they are bigger and will last longer.

Re: Little Tikes Outdoor Toys
I'm looking for some new outdoor toy too and found this...
Step 2 Extreme Coaster
Check it out on Amazon here: Step 2 Extreme Coaster
There is a video that is pretty cute showing two little kids having fun on it. I don't think it will take up a lot of room either in the yard. So far Walmart is the only place I'm finding I can get it cheaper. I would have to ship it to Walmart (for free) and pick it up. If you buy it anywhere else (it is mostly an online buy only) they will charge you up to $100 just for shipping.

I find this to be true as well. I really like the Step 2 products.

Out of the two, I think the second one is better. I think he will grow out of the first one fast.
As for the coaster, I second that. We have it and my dd LOVES it, plus it's something that is NOT at the park.

Nah that coaster looks like a death trap to me!
But they do sell Step2 products in the UK, I might get a climbing frame type toy from them.
This one looks good
