moms of toddler boys
My nephew's 3rd birthday is coming up, and because he is my godchild, I always buy him a little extra. 
I called her this morning to ask her what Joseph likes, and she told me "Well, don't get him anything for the backyard because he has a sprinkler, sand/water table, and basketball hoop already and our yard isn't that big, and he doesnt need anymore clothes, he has tons, and we really dont like messy art supplies. He got an easel for christmas and we try to limit his use of it cause he makes a mess, same goes for play-doh" 
Are you kidding me? What's left to get the kid?? For Christmas I got him all of those first board games, like Candyland, Chutes & Ladders, and Hi Ho Cherry-O. I do know he loves anything on Playhouse Disney and Noggin, but he probably already has tons of toys from there. HELP!!

When in doubt get a gift card and maybe a small toy car - like hot wheels for him to open up. That way if his mom thinks of anything down the road - they can go together to ppick something out. In order to give him something to open, I think the car is a good idea. My son also got these flashlight animal things from Fisher Price for his birthday - which he loves. One is a cow and one is a horse.

What about tix to an event? Diego is live in NYC this year, the Big Apple Circus is going to be in Eisenhower this year, Bakyardigans Live is coming. There are several other shows that come around throughout the year.

That could be a cute idea =) I know he likes Diego and the Backyardigans. Maybe tix for him and his mom and then a little something to open would work. Thanks!

How about a "first" bicycle with diego or thomas the train-that was my son's FAVORITE 3rd bday gift-and it make a good showing!
the tickets are a cute idea also- or maybe a $10 shake n go car along w/ a gift certificate.
