3 yr old boy - Bday Gift?
Any ideas for a 3 year old boy - birthday gift? It's for my nephew and he's really into Cars and Monster Trucks. They also live in Texas, so any outdoor toys you'd recommend? Price isn't an issue. Any ideas are welcomed and appreciated! Thanks!

Re: 3 yr old boy - Bday Gift?
Sophia's grandparents got her this trampoline for her birthday last year and every kid who has stepped foot in our house since has fallen in love. We have at least two friends who have now purchased it for their kiddos as well. Otherwise, we love getting things like our annual zoo membership, pool passes, etc. as gifts so we get to use them all year, but don't have to pay for them ourselves.

There is a really cool grave digger monster truck out right now. Its huge. I know you said price does not matter but its still kind of expensive. But there are some pretty cool little monster trucks. T got some that you give them a little push and they will ?climb? over small cars. He also got a neat little course for them to race on.

a little camp chair, in a car theme?
sandbox toys in car or truck theme
I bet anything train would also work.
that trampoline thing Lucy posted would be a sure winner. It's on my soon to be 3 yr old's list!
there are some Lego/Duplo sets with trains and cars in them, and my dad has those, which William loves.
If price is really not an issue and he doesn't already have one, what about getting a motorized truck/jeep? We have one for our 2 1/2 year old and he LOVES to drive around the yard in it. However, I think anywhere you find them they will be well north of $100.
We also gave one to our 3 year old nephew (more of a mini four wheeler look) and he loves to cruise around in his too.
Exactly what I was going to suggest.
