Top 5 List of the Best Toys for Boys
Shopping for little boys ages 3-7 can be a challenge unless they go with you to the toy store and you endure them saying, “I WANT THAAAAT!” over and over until you leave with $50 worth of action figures they’ll play with for exactly 23.6 seconds.
Here is a list of our customer’s favorite toys for boys from Melissa & Doug:
(Melissa & Doug toys are always on sale ~ 10% off)
Dinosaur Stamp Set by Melissa & Doug
Blue Sticker Collection by Melissa & Doug
Let your boy’s creative side emerge with the dinosaur stamp set including colored pencils. Pair the stamp set with Melissa & Doug’s Construction Paper and Blue Sticker Collection to make interesting art creations.
Funny Frog Games by Melissa & Doug
Looking for a fun birthday party activity for your boys? Entertain them for at least 1/2 the party time with the 10 Funny Frog Games, all in one box! Keep it for after the party for an inside snow day or rainy day activity (not just for boys!).
Pirate Role Play Dress Up Costume by Melissa & Doug
Every single one of my girls’ boy friends love pirates. They find anything around the house or outside to use as a sword, but with this costume set, they can use a “real” pirate sword!
Make-Your-Own Monster Puppet by Melissa & Doug
Complete with its own storage bag, this monster is sure to be HOURS of activity-time for your boys. Let their imagination go crazy with the pieces and parts they velcro to the puppet. Make it a game with your boys to see who can create the craziest monster and share the pictures with Grandma!
P.S. I’m an equal-opportunity toy giver, so I’d give any of these toys to my girls as well as boys. Trust me – my daughter was dressed as Buzz Lightyear this Halloween.

Great selections. I’m thankful that my son has always been pretty easy to buy for even before he was talking. What’s harder is convincing daddy that the blocks make a better gift than the robots. We’ve compromised and are getting the stacking robots from http://www.thinkgeek.com. Sometimes I think the toys for our children are just a sneaky way for parents to play with cool toys that weren’t available to us as kids.

I was browsing today, unsure of what I was looking for, but knew that I needed help with my finances, and your site just popped up. (Divine intervention, or what!)
