#17. Wooden Train Set - a very popular toy in our house!
#18. LEGO - another very popular toy in our house!
#19. Melissa & Doug Puppets - this is what we gave the boys for Christmas last year. They have been such fun!
#20. Marble Mania Genius Construction Set - we have a couple marble runs picked up from various thrift stores or yard sales. They are incredibly fun though at the ages of our boys it does require parental assistance.
#21. LeapFrog LeapPad Explorer Learning Tablet - If it were financially possible I think we would buy one of these for the boys. We don’t own one, but I included it as I think it’s a fabulous option for a Christmas gift if it is within your budget.
#22. Knight’s Castle set – we have a very similar set to this and it has provided hours of creative play for the boys.

#23. Paracord - Rope is a beloved play toy for both our boys. This one is military standard and comes in your choice of fun colors!
#24.
Hammocks - We own two right now and keep one set up in the backyard for the boys to play in.
#26. A Zip line – we are thinking of getting one from Vision Forum as their Christmas gift. Vision Forum has a fantastic assortment of gifts for boys so be sure to check their “Adventure/Outdoor” section.
{addendum: we are buy them a slackline this year}
Smaller Gifts {for stockings or their friends} #27-32

Love the hammocks. I couldn't find the ziplines on the website, but they did have a lot of interesting outdoor toys.
Thanks for the list. When my son gets a bit older I'll have to remember some of these ideas.
