I need some inspiration for my little boy's birthday. He is (soon to be) 2 years old. Very much into cars, trains, dinosaurs, lego etc.


Likes Raa Raa, Peppa pig, Abney and Teal - not into Thomas etc. yet. Loves books but have plenty of those.


I am completely ignorant when it comes to boy toys - is there anything particularly popular for a two year old? I think for my daughter's second birthday we had tons of presents but now am struggling with just the one.


Would like to get him one good big present and maybe one or two smaller ones

He does not have a scooter but my daughter's micro is available (she has just about outgrown it). It is pink but so far that does not seem to bother him. He has not tried it yet but maybe we can let him have a go. Am a bit terrified he is going to just kill himself on it. Cannot remember what age my daughter started on it.

A is on a micro scooter now. We got the one with the attachment with ride on seat, which is meant to go up to 3. She's had that since Xmas though so now we've taken the seat off and she's on the 'o bar' which is shorter than the main 't bar' and easier to grip. She loves whizzing round the park on it.


I think you can buy the smaller attachments separately - and also new 'decks' so he could have a boys colour one (and the decks themselves sell on ebay second hand so the pink needn't go to waste).

    • Well I did say I stand to be corrected! Fair enough, their website only seemed to list three branches. Perhaps it's a franchise model?  It's known as 'agglomeration' in economics Rookie error.
    • I didn't know there was a word for that — thanks!
    • This is just normal business behaviour. That's why there are so many coffee shops in ED and shops selling gifts and interiors stuff, clothes, restaurants.  If there's more than one business of a similar type then it can benefit all of them up to a saturation point and keep up quality. It's all sounding like many think Chango has made a malicious move when it actually sounds like it's owned by one guy who has a good business that has done well.   Anyway this is all great advertising for both empanada places. Very close by is the organic grocer who sells really good value and very tasty samosas and other Indian snacks which are also worth trying. 
    • Hello, Does this lovely little panther have a name? & Is he neutered & microchipped?
